| Midrange Better Than Harbeth or Spendor? Great choices both. I do have first-hand experience. Take a look at FJ (limited distribution channel-made in Germany) and ATC (UK). | |
| Are there any quality Phish recordings? Billy Breathes and New Years @MSG. Fine music, great sound. | |
| The best mini monitors you have heard? "Original" Linn Kans were colored, yet good. The FJ "Mini" is what I use today. Also, very nice. Try Spendor, Harbeth too. All have sane pricing. | |
| How good can a mono cartridge be...? Uraniumcommittee really showing your vast knowledge base here. Tell us what else does not exist, please. | |
| Should I Brush My Cartridge After Each Use? Don't worry-just play (and enjoy) records that are fairly clean. The good folks at Rega will even say that the stylus cleans the record for u. To a degree, I agree!Clean your stylus with Linn-supplied green paper on occasion. It's slightly abrasiv... | |
| Silent Speaker from Direct Acoustics ??? good post-I'm interested too. The guy behind them has a LONG solid track-record. Anyone?????? | |
| anyone mention tull? Did not notice a mention of "This Was". I'm a lifetime Tull fan from junior HS to today (I'm 47). Saw Ian with a little pick up band a couple years back at the Bardovan (oldest opera house in the country, I believe) and was not the same for a few ... | |
| Best bang for the buck turntable? KAB modded Technics and Rega P3 (soon to be changed) are classics. I would not think too hard about anything else. | |
| Rega p-5 power supply ubgrade I did it-it was night and day! | |
| DJ Cartridges - have you tried it? Mr. Visser- You're asking a few questions lately about DD TTs and now DJ carts. Try the KAB Technics DD TT with the integral Stanton cart "Psychicanimal" suggests. It's really a good package at a grand. | |
| The Best Midrange in the World Right Now I love your post. I've been saying, for years, hifi ain't what it used to be. We've gone WAY too far in our drive for exactness. I was FAR happier listening to music when I was younger and less nuerotic about gear itself. I've recently sold ALMOST... | |
| Rega P5 owners PSU takes it to a NEW level. Just get it. | |
| Best Acoustic Guitar Players Of All Time? I'll throw Ian Anderson into the mix. Yeah, the guy from J Tull.By the way, Jaybo's choice RULES! | |
| Best TT under 2K? Sounds hard to believe, but the Technics KILLS. Kevin at KAB is wicked cool and great to work with. I've owned Linn, Rega and Nott. They ALL destroy digital. Linn is the best, but very expensive. Under $1,000, it's the Technics. Under $2,000 it ma... | |
| Best "Rock/Pop" Debut Album? The major errors here (Yes and Bowie) in selecting "first" albums really shows a LOT of the A-goners are hifi buffs rather than music fans. Sorry, but the truth hurts. |
