| Ortofon 309 vs. SME 3012 for SPUs I would like to avoid cartridges that require a SUT because to get one that would match the quality of my phono section would be quite costly between the SUT and the extra pair of RCAs. It's also another piece in the signal chain...What are the di... | |
| Ortofon 309 vs. SME 3012 for SPUs I decided to buy a restored Ortofon RMG 309 arm and am now on the lookout for a good SPU :) I have heard both the AE85 and AE90 (I liked the AE90 most) but those command pretty high prices on the big auction site and I have read that the Silver Me... | |
| Ortofon 309 vs. SME 3012 for SPUs It seems that both arms work very well but I am definitely interested in having the arm for exclusive use with SPUs (I already have an outstanding TW 10.5 arm for modern cartridges). Does anyone know what the differences between the RMG 309 and th... | |
| Ortofon 309 vs. SME 3012 for SPUs The 309D is a great arm but I am specifically interested in the vintage Ortofon and SME 12" arms. | |
| Audio Desk Record Cleaner I had an early model unit that had some issues but recently got a new production replacement unit. The new unit runs much smoother and quieter than the early model I had. Obviously some improvements have been made. I have cleaned about 50 records ... | |
| Recommendation for analog set for $700 I've been thinking about the same thing for my brother in law to go with his Almarro 205a and Omega speakers. Does anyone here know how good the old Micro Seiki BL-51 or DD40 tables are? Aesthetics are very important for his WAF. I was thinking ab... | |
| Enter The Raven The GT and 10.5 Congratulations on your TW GT! I haven't heard the new GT yet but it looks just wicked. I agree entirely with your comments about Jeff. He always goes above and beyond to help and has never steered me wrong as I have gradually upgraded my system. | |
| Stillpoints under T-W Acustic Raven AC I use a SRA Ohio platform under my AC-1 and have had zero issues with vibration even with the subway running directly under my NYC apartment building. The US distributor for TW uses SRA as well. | |
| Acoustic Zen Absolute or Audience Au24e? After living with the Au24e speaker cables for a bit I recently replaced the AZ Matrix II interconnects between my preamp and amps with Au24e. Another nice improvement in clarity and detail. Much the same as with the speaker cables but took it a s... | |
| Omega Super 3 owners - what amp are you using? The Almarro 205a works quite well with my brother in laws Super 5 XRS. Fast, clear and punchy. Can't imagine a better pairing for the money. | |
| Horning owners what amps have you used? The Sati I heard in Jeff's loft was modified to use the monster Emission Labs 320B XLS. I believe the output was 20 watts. | |
| Horning owners what amps have you used? I've heard the Eufrodites in Jeff's loft driven by both Tron and Horning amps. The new Sati integrated (he used a Tron phono stage) is simply awe inspiring. | |
| Best USB DAC for 1000-1500? I ended up buying a used Tranquility (non SE) after reading the lengthy thread on Audiocircle about it. Before I gift it to my relative I want to compare it in my system to my RAM modified XA9000es. That could be a big mistake on my part :) At any... | |
| Acoustic Zen Absolute or Audience Au24e? I started with speaker cables and really like what they have done for my system. Will probably try the Au24e ICs next based on the improvements I hear. | |
| Acoustic Zen Absolute or Audience Au24e? I ended up going with a set of Au24e and found the sound very similar to Holley's description. Very clear and fast with a bit wider soundstage and more detail vs my previous cables. Tight and punchy bass. I'm sure there are more expensive cables t... |
