| Any experience with Audio Experience A2 preamp ? Hi. I know this thread is old, but may be someone is reading ))) I've heard an A2 Plus recently in my system, used, but very low hrs, and thinking of buying it, because I think it sound really great. Especially I was struck by razor-sharp delineat... | |
| Non-factory options for repairing PS Audio GCPH? Hi. I wonder if this old threads will revive, but I have a similar problem. Paul’s post is not opening… | |
| Impressions of PS Audio GCPH dhl93449Hi. I have just bought the GCPH, and having the same issues as you did - hum. Since the unit sounds pretty good otherwise, I was wondering if you could help me with fixing the noise issue. I’m pretty handy with soldering iron, pretty sure ... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Lewm, exactly like Monty! :-))). Can I write directly to JP Jones at Fidelis? | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Hello fellow audiogonersI have a Luxman PD-444 which is dead for all practical purposes: the light are on but nobody's home. I have re-capped it - no change. Can anybody fix it? Cosmetically it's only fair, so I'm thinking if repairs are too much ... | |
| FYI: VPI HW-19 motors I see that the conversation has drifted - but no complaints here :-)1) Testpilot: I've had an Oracle Premiere Mk IV for many years, and can not say that it had no bass. In fact, it had very nice bass. It was not as big as VPI's, but it was clean a... | |
| WHAT IS GOING ON WITH VPI ?? They only work thru dealers now. I was Given "Sound Stage Direct", and ordered parts thru them. It took 5 weeks (!) to get parts for my HW-19 Mk IV... | |
| Goldmund Reference Turntable ? Any way to open up the sound of the T3F, or give up on it? I found that late versions performed flawlessly mechanically, but the sound is very closed, hard and midrangy with a big overblown upper bass. No highs/upper mids really to speak off no ma... | |
| Pass Labs Xono vs. Aesthetix Rhea I also disagree that Xono is sterile and cold. I have not compared it to Aesthetics, but compared to Hagerman Trumpet, and MFA Luminescence. While both tube units do sound warmer and have subjectively a bit more "life", they also luck in control, ... | |
| MG1 air- bearing tone-arm HiI've used MG-1 with excellent results on my Oracle Premiere Mk IV. Takes a while to set it up, and then you have to check it quite often for proper leveling (you need a small level and a Hex wrench to adjust the screws in the base of arm), so ar... | |
| Cart recommendations for MG-1 tonearm IMHO, and I may be wrong, of course, but regular compliance computations do not apply to most parallel trackers. Side-to-side movement of MG-1 can be easily controlled by liquid damping, thus accomodating almost any cartridge. I have used many car... | |
| Pink Floyd best CDs soundwise Sol322, never heard of it, pls enlighten me! | |
| Pink Floyd best CDs soundwise Thanks for advise. Is 30th Ann. hybrid different from regular SACD hybrid that I see now on e-bay and other sites? Is Japanese hybrid different from both of those? | |
| Air line filter for air bearing arm I also have MG-1. This filter is a low restriction filter, so affect on air delivery, as I experience it, is minimal. It does not matter where the filter is, the best way is before the pump, but there is no visible air inlet on the pump supplied w... | |
| Air line filter for air bearing arm Thanks to all. I received an e-mail from ET to use automotive clear plastic fuel filters, $5 max. Already installed and works great. Go figure! |
