| Is Imaging Worth Chasing? Speaker placement is huge. Are your speakers on stands and is the center of the tweeter approximately ear level when you’re sitting? This is important. Also isolating from vibration - clarity is key to getting imaging and vibration causes di... | |
| Low level listening What amp or integrated are you using - I think this makes a big difference to clarity/information at lower volumes. additionally would recommend the Schitt Loki EQ to make your own boosted curve for lower level listening - works amazingly well. ... | |
| Integrated amp recommendation Used for $1500 you can go higher up the Rega line to a Elex-r or Elicit-r. Highly recommend both. | |
| Turntable channel imbalance I do use an AT SS445E/U high-end NOS cart with original Nude 0.3mil elliptical stylus. I feel like I’d have to spend a bit to get better performance, no? https://www.vinylengine.com/ve_downloads/index.php?audio_technica/audio_technica_ss315e_3... | |

| Turntable channel imbalance That’s a great call. In this instance I referenced the digital copy in comparison. Maybe it was the old mix on the vinyl - but it leans Very left. | |
| Turntable channel imbalance Thanks y’all. I don’t think it’s the pre. It’s been the case across multiple phono pre amps. (Inbuilt on 2 integrateds + the Rega Fono) Will triple check the level and RCA inputs. It’s strange to me that it’s more present on certain LPs but... | |
| Turntable channel imbalance @fuzztone using a Rega Fono MM pre - just on/off. So am I out of luck? Is this the table or the cart? | |
