How good is the crossover in your loudspeakers? “Send Danny one of your loudspeakers, and he will free of charge do a complete evaluation of it’s design.” Who’s in their right mind would do that! It’s just not practical due to sheer weight / size. And, if I want Danny Richie to ‘voice’ or twe... | |
Garrard 301 - Project @noromance Ben plays Ballads by Storyville is excellent. No surface noise, the pressing is made in EU. I am not easily impressed but this one is a keeper. I am going to look up this record label and see what else they’ve got. @macg19 Kenny... | |
Garrard 301 - Project @macg19 In case you don’t own this title, very nice and clean record. https://a.co/d/daCwZyd | |
Garrard 301 - Project @macg19 I had a feeling Tele NOS would be better since I am using quad of Tele NOS in my CD player. Speaking of tube rolling, I always wanted to try Amperex Bugle Boy 12AX7 but they are so rare and expensive. The reissues or newer tubes are pr... | |
Garrard 301 - Project @noromance, @macg19 I have been listening to Telefunken NOS 12AX7 since yesterday after 4 days of break-in. Let me first say JJ 12AX7 are excellent tubes for the money. My biggest concern was noise with Tele NOS. Fortunately, they turned out to ... | |
What is the most overlooked consideration? @2psyop My top criteria’s when choosing a gear; does it provide long-term musical connection. More importantly, does it invite me to play more music, not just “audiophile tracks”? Secondly, synergy and lastly designer’s (manufacturer) integrity... | |
We Need To Talk About Ones And Zeroes @kennyc Exactly! USB “won” because it was convenient, not ideal. I’d high hopes when I²S introduced. We all know how that went, not only handshake issues but manufacturers couldn’t unanimously agreed on I²S connector. Ethernet or HDMI, a truly d... | |
How are you playing your precious MONO Vinyl? @vinylrestingplace Thank you for your comprehensive summary of what’s required for high-quality mono and 78 RPM playback. You’ve outlined several key nuances that some of us may overlook or those newer to mono playback. Congrats on building a ... | |
How are you playing your precious MONO Vinyl? @goofyfoot You’re absolutely justified in treating your earlier mono LPs differently from your later ones—and your eyes and ears are picking up what most overlook. | |
Integrated that blew you away @goyescas What are your speakers? Speaker + Integrated synergy is very important so it would be helpful to know what speakers gel with this GATO Integrated. | |
We Need To Talk About Ones And Zeroes I keep reading the same old stance from folks that either don’t stream or streaming for fun with their fancy analog or CD players. You know who you are :-) It’s not about the data but about the context (emotional, physical, psychological) in whi... | |
How are you playing your precious MONO Vinyl? “I am still perplexed why these two mono groove sizes are not mentioned more often whenever the topic comes up.” @goofyfoot You may have missed my earlier post where I mentioned that my mono collection is after 1960’s era. Mono records pressed ... | |
How are you playing your precious MONO Vinyl? @billstevenson Thank you for sharing your perspective on two carts and the genre. Like you, I listened to Jazz primarily as well. | |
How are you playing your precious MONO Vinyl? @elliottbnewcombjr A quick search lead me to this Car & Driver article. I am sure you can find more articles around the benefits of using a higher octane. I was bit surprised to see the results for Ford F-150. https://www.caranddriver.com/f... | |
How are you playing your precious MONO Vinyl? “It’s not about the money, it’s about feeling like a sucker. ” @elliottbnewcombjr It’s all about the perspective under given conditions. You can buy a 10 year old used BMW and fill it up with cheapest gas and not feel like a sucker. Would you... |
