| Why do I keep torturing myself with remasters? When it comes to vinyl avoid remasters. They are digitised analogue, so rather bizarrely you are making ur Anologue rig play digital. A bit like buying a diesel and trying to run it on petrol. Buy them as a last resort. Buy a second hand record - ... | |
| Do they make a quiet great sounding phono pre amp?? Hi Matt. I waited and waited, and, searched and searched - then I got a Vendetta SCP2a. Old elctrolytic caps damaged my Lavardin IT, but once replaced, and with modern IC's my phono stage search has come to an end. The only phono stage I have come... | |
| Help with picking the right phono pre for the rest of my system please! Doh forgot to add - got a Vendetta SCP2a recently - I have stopped my search... | |
| Help with picking the right phono pre for the rest of my system please! There is a very good phono stage sold by the people that make Ming Da - it uses the nuvista tube (like Musical Fidelity) I thought it sounded great at the High End hifi show in Windsor. Can I also add that Soundfoundations in the UK make a superb ... | |
| R.I.P. David Bowie He truly was a soaring brilliant star. He had it all - talent, charisma, charm, humility, humour, gorgeous wife etc etc. I am so glad that he had made such a long, varied and thrilling contribution to the world of art. I listened to Young American... | |
| Help with picking the right phono pre for the rest of my system please! IMHO if its tubes you like check out the TRON Seven - in fact one on sale on this website somewhere. Very musical and neutral at the same time - really captures musical flow. The EAR phono stages are very good too - they are exceptionally musical ... | |
| Vincent PHO 700 Phono Stage The problem with Audiophiles, just like all consumers, we want more for less. As a result electronics are made in China - then everyone moans that only the UBER High End components are made in the US or UK. Shame consumers didn't support affordabl... | |
| Turntable for life Whilst I do not own one, I get the impression that LP12 owners tend to hold onto their decks the longest, not only that but one never sees Voyd Reference (3 motor version) ever up for sale. | |
| Digitally remastered vinyl record? Seriously? That is interesting. I guess I have never heard top quality cassettes - that's all. I am merely asking out of curiosity than criticism. What cassette deck would you go for? | |
| why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable Hey Mitch - you probably have some point here - I think that .is 'across the board' of an manufacturing industry or process. If you read an issue of HiFi Critic Martin Colloms is very honest insofar as he will say a previous model is better than t... | |
| why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable Can I just say something here. There is a DIY audio/audiophile obsession with equipment, cables in particular, being a rip off which people can make in their garage far better. As aforementioned cables from JPS, Nordost, Taralabs and several other... | |
| Phono cable question I think that Nordost tonearm cables have shielding suited to the low level signal | |
| Looking for really fine cables at really low price I think that Hitachi manufacture a lot of cables used in hifi | |
| Digitally remastered vinyl record? Seriously? Hi Geoffkait - am I right to therefore think that casette tapes are therefore a genuine high end music source? or am I reading this incorectly? | |
| Digitally remastered vinyl record? Seriously? What a superb thread. I was wondering about most of the issues raised here, most of which have been answered. Can I just say though that as far as I understand large studios went digital as from the 80's which meant that mainstream albums were nea... |
