| ZYX "House" Sound Ignore the comments on the DD40. Its a wonderful table/arm and sounds great using a Monster Sigma Genesis 2000 and other cartridges. Denon 103R too but the cartridge lacks detail no matter what combo i tried it on. Its a valued player in my tab... | |
| Please tell me the wait will be work it......my rack I recently used a home depot butcher block top and Kreg workbench legs to hold my two chassis preamp. $225. Sounded great. I am a woodworker hobbyist but too many projects for house in front of that. Eventually changed the layout cause I could... | |
| Turntable - The Next Step Recent experience. I have a Linn Lp12 with Kore, Cirkus and an Ekos 1 with sticky dial issue. It sounds wonderful, in tune now for almost 2 years. I spend alot of time on setup. I was using the old vintage tonearm cable as the sound was excelle... | |
| looking to match a new speaker to ARC REF75se I have run my 75 SE with Matrix 802 s3 and Matrix 805. Plenty of power and sounds great. I also have tried Dynaudio Special 25 with the ARC and EAR 509. So the ARC has gobs of power to run these. The amount and quality of the bass is impressiv... | |
| Mark Levinson No. 27 Amplifier, buy or not? Do a google search on Pyramid Levinson musings. they are authorized Levinson repair center. They give comments on many Levinson pieces. They will also talk with you and give you advice. You will find many comments and opinion here. I took the... | |
| Mark Levinson No. 27 Amplifier, buy or not? Pyramid in Texas services these. I have a 27.5. It's wonderful, i have no plans to part with it. Used all sorts of preamps, tube and solid state sounds great with all. I used to be concerned with service cost (yes it is expensive) but I would ... | |
| Mark Levinson & Others As mentioned in prior post, they (536) sounded great to my ears. The 526 now heard the linestage and DAC. Think this preamp is special. The 536 really sounded great, hope I have the means to purchase at some point in future. I cant comment on ... | |
| Mark Levinson & Others I have to disagree. The newer stuff is pricey but it's excellent I have a 526 preamp I am listening to through a levinson ML23.5 and older Matrix speakers. The phono stage is magnificent and I am really enjoying it. I have both tube and solid s... | |
| Basis Audio Fans Basis tables hard to beat. And customer support is second to none. I have a vacuum debut with a Vector 3/graham 2.2 and an Ovation with a graham 2.2 and phantom 2 supreme. Thoroughly enjoy them both. A.J. used to answer all my questions no matt... | |
| V-Cap Odam or Miflix output caps In preamp Just tried ODAM's at two spots in my 70's EAR 509, proactive replacement due to physical/visual appearance. Not much space. Not broken in yet but they sound great to my ears. Very happy with my choice, didnt want change the sound. Mission accom... | |
| Cheap $88 Sony SS-CS5 Speakers - Awesome One other note. I am listening to classical music. Jaw dropping. Bass, dynamics, drums hit me in the chest. At crescendos they don't break a sweat. Never heard such small speakers do classical music justice. Just overwhelming for cheap speaker... | |
| Tube Preamp - What to buy? I concur with the recommendations on EAR. Just picked up an 868PL. Wanted to see if the hype was real. As a previous poster stated I put some Siemens/Holland NOS tubes in (it actually had 6DJ8 types there from factory). Biggest pleasant surpri... | |
| Lucky cartridge hunting today Concur on your observations. Thanks. | |
| Lucky cartridge hunting today Yeah, I procured and no i didn't buy them all :-) I had these before and loved them. Regretted selling to this day.I have a Talisman B on an Ittok/Axis and is wonderful. The Axis with Ittok turned out to be very special. My older cartridges ... | |
| B&W speakers sounding very harsh? I am not in the camp that BW speakers are bright. They reveal the source material, that's what they were designed for. I collect the Matrix series and have the 801 S3 with Northcreeks, 803 S2 which I just picked up, 804 and 805's. I read many po... |
