| Review: Krell Resolution 2 Speaker Picked em up at ABT. You can email me and I will give you the rep who will let you audition with your own music. Or you can arrange maybe to listen to mine. I am in northern burbs. | |
| Review: Krell Resolution 2 Speaker Glad someone enjoyed my review :))))))))))) My listening room is L shaped but the listening area is about 16 x 22 feet. The speakers weigh alot - about 140 pounds. I dont have the dimensions at my fingertips but they are not too imposing. As far a... | |
| Linn Sondek LP-12 happy/un-happy owners In the response to my post, I heard a megabuck system that was so bad, I couldnt stand it. It was comprised of all respected equipment, but the pieces were not compatible. It was truly terrible. The reason I said that, was to reinforce my statemen... | |
| Linn Sondek LP-12 happy/un-happy owners I am a happy turntable owner. Please note that while I have a Linn LP12 moniker, I am not a fanatic. I enjoy music whatever brand. The whole secret is component matching and set up. I once heard a $50,000 system and thought the cheap stuff at Best... | |
| Linn Sondek LP12 - Cartridge recommendation I had an SME III tonearm on one of my Linn tables long time ago. These tonearmes were made for the Shure V15 and similar cartridges. When I had this combo, I used a Goldring 1042 moving magnet. It sounded pretty good and I thought a good match. Th... | |
| VPI HR-X, Super Scoutmaster and Acrylic Platters Update, I could not find a super scoutmaster hooked up but I did find a scoutmaster. Respectable high end electronics, speakers and cartridge I am familar with. I also listened to a nottingham table too. The nottingham was unexciting. My wife and ... | |
| Cary Preamps I purchased the TFT Exotica from handmade electronics. The improvement was jaw dropping. I have experimented with caps for a long time. This by far was the best. I wanted to buy more but they are out of stock in the 0.22/600v version. | |
| Cary Preamps I have to totally disagree with the above post. I have the SLP98 preamp with phono. It is one of the absolute best preamps on the market. With the stock kimbers, it is an excellent and musical preamp. With Teflon caps, which I put in, it is in the... | |
| Kimber vs Jensen coupling caps in Cary amps I have alot of experience with this. Caps make a huge difference in sound. I put Jensen copper in foil caps in my 805C, 300SE and now my SLM200's The caps actually take a long time to break in. But when they do, you will hear it. About 100 hours i... | |
| I need a female jazz vocalist. No Krall, No Norah Cai Qin. She is a chinese vocalist and is awesome. While you wont understand the words, no need. The music is beautiful and so are the sonics. You can probably get it outside of Hong Kong in Chinese music stores in places where there are chinese v... | |
| Linn LP-12 Configurations for a Newbie Here are my thoughts. I have owned many Linn tables and arms. This is what I would recommend to you.1. Make sure your table is tuned.2. Arm second. I do not like the basik at all and think it is a terrible arm (my opinion). That is the weakest lin... | |
| Quad vs. Martin Logan? I'll add my 2 cents to this debate. I currently own and listen to Quad 63, Quad 57, Martin Logan CLS IIz, Martin Logan Ascent, Martin Logan Aerius speakers. First, I love my Logans. I find the Aerius and Ascent to be well intergrated. Electronics ... | |
| Conrad Johnson Premier 5 or Premier 12 for ML I own CLS IIz. By far the absolute best amp, if you are going to spend that money and you can find them, Cary SLM-200 monoblocks. No subwoofer needed, they are awesome amps and go absolutely perfect with the CLS IIz. I run them off the 4 ohm tap e... | |
| Buy an Audio Research SP10 MkII or an SP11 MkII ? I have to disagree with Jafox on the gain. I am currently using the SP10 with a Spectral MCR at around 0.2 mv. Also used it with other cartridges in that range. While I will agree it will be better with higer output cartridges, I have gobs of gain... | |
| Buy an Audio Research SP10 MkII or an SP11 MkII ? I have owned both and have kept my SP10. it will never leave me as I have not found anything that comes close for my personal taste. When I first received my SP11 many years ago, I fell in love with it. But after a while, there was something about... |
