| Just got back in the vinyl community Well I love what you’ve done with the system! However, I feel strongly that your not going to get the full potential out of the Exact cartridge upgrade using the awful bearing (steel) and brass thrust plate (end of spindle on sub platter) of the P... | |
| ROON? So Roon is software and Hardware?.....Like say Aurender's Conductor app and Aurender's music players. They have Roon software and Roon music servers..okay. | |
| McIntosh Meter I have a McIntosh MC352 which ive owned since 2007. The amp never has a problem except for the lights have gone really dim on the nomenclature and now the meters are starting to dim as well, I am fortunate that I was able to obtain one of the last... | |

| Totem Model 1 vs Totem Arro This is one of the best speakers sold over the last 35 years or more. The Totem Model 1 Signatures sound as good as the Dynaudio special 40’s ($4500) for half the price! These Totem speakers have a beautiful Dynaudio main driver with a lovely 3 in... | |
| Used Bryston 7b-SST or Emotive XPA-DR1 Go with the Bryston. Great product great company. | |
| Audiophile sound quality from a more "mainstream" company? I dont like buying audio products from companies that probably will not be around long and have no customer service nor do they back their products very well. Stick with companies that have been in the business for decades and have a real track re... | |
