| Audioquest or Transparent? The Transperent VS. AudiotQuest theorem:For any type of Transperent cable there can always be a better AudioQuest cable for the same price or even cheaper. | |
| RCA plugs that don't fit. I had the same problem with Cardas RCA. These RCA plugs weren't solid ahd had a "6-teeth" structure. I inserted a wire pliers inside and streched(very carefully) the opposite "teeth" on each plug. | |
| Passive pre with Bryston 7B ST?? ...that's how it's suppose to work. Having sencitivity of .8V and the source output of 2V you won't need any extra gain.Try it with Creek OBH14 and it'll smoke Bryston BP25 in your case. | |
| Placette pre amp I'm the passive folk too but there are certain conditions must meet before you'll get into no-preamp listening. Most of SET and Triode amps have a low sensitivity and will loose a great deal of dynamics when coupled directly with the source. There... | |
| Anybody willing to admit? I dare to admit that keeping just 6 or several vinyls or CDs will not suit me since when I start listening(especially on weekends) I may pick up upto 25 recors and play them either whole or selective parts. I can even delay it for the next day.:) | |
| 7500 for USED cables? Are they joking? ...and DD adict guy -- this isn't a VOODOO it's quite real to me. | |
| 7500 for USED cables? Are they joking? I would lookup into US history rather than critisize such absurd with the cables.It is all come from here where the all freedom marketing and business begins. Understand me right that marketing business advances and it's all about how to sell. You... | |
| Average age of audiophiles Well... I'm not sure when I've started but I've started to collect "software" since I was 5 without(back then) paying attention on reproduction quality. I wasn't realy interested with children tales on vinyl neither with children songs. I mostly h... | |

| Vandersteen 1B vs. 1C only in letters and years of manufacturing...you can even verify it with Richard. | |
| Placette pre amp There are several options for you:Pass Aleph P(hard to find though) that has switchable gain and can be used as an active and passive preamp as well in case if you will have high output source(can be a phono too).BAT VK50 is one of the best preamp... | |
| Placette pre amp I assume that the author of this thread has triode monoblocks from Legend Audio and I dare do dissapoint the author that these amps will loose some of its performance if driven by passive stage. These monos have low sencitivity and relatively low ... | |
| Linear tracking vs. Pivoted tracking tone arms. Lou, you don't have to run. It's true that Rega arms are made cheep and have an alarm wire in the arm tube but they work well. The first goal of arm is to track properly. The sonical performance more depends on turntable and cartridge rather than ... | |
| Anybody willing to admit? Hmmm some day I will have to sell part of my digital and analogue collection, but I'm lazy to place my ads on the net.I've never used to keep more than 150 records and sold whatever I've listened and bought something new. Whatever records I can ge... | |
