| DartZeel CTH-8550 vs PS Audio BHK 300 Mononlocks PS Audio has done a great job collaborating with Bascom King on their BK line. However, DarlZeel is among the world’s greatest manufacturers. Do you want a Cadillac or a Rolls Royce? | |
| Seriously considering tube preamp…opinions? Hi Andrew,There are only a couple of companies who only make one product-a preamp. The slam dunk best of these is Audible Illusions. A “class A” Stereophile component for decades. With the continuing review “as good as any regardless of price”. I ... | |
| What country builds the best audio equipment? Oh, forgot to mention the UK! And decades of BBC standards...In a way, British gear companies are up there with Germany. Maybe a notch down in ultimate quality than Germany. But historically up there in great companies with the US. | |
| What country builds the best audio equipment? If it’s the most companies/products it is the USA. And it would win for the most excellent companies. If it is the most consistently great products, it would have to be Switzerland. Japan and Germany would probably tie for second. However Germany ... | |
| Anyone else grateful that they got hooked on this crazy addiction Surely, an affirmation of the love of listening!This reminded me of my first love. At 6 years, hiding under the covers being swept away by Elvis, and others, coming through my precious little transistor radio. Jumping to my first “High End” system... | |
| Rega P10 v Complete rebuild Garrard 401! Hey Uber,Appreciate your echos of my comments.Yes, that USAM 301 is an attractive unit. Seems well beyond the “classic” 301 set up. And the new Woodsong idler wheel and new pulley probable make it very usable. Feel we have done our best to guide G... | |
| Rega P10 v Complete rebuild Garrard 401! Hey Gunner,I just checked out that ad and the Acoustand Audio Twin Arm Skeletal Plinth on the Acoustand site. To buy that plinth new from that company installed would be $527. My Woodsong plinth was $4,000! That 301 is probably about 7 out of 10 m... | |
| Rega P10 v Complete rebuild Garrard 401! Gunner,I would strongly consider that $3500 rebuild on US Audio Mart that was linked in a previous post. The open plinth is not ideal but the amount of rebuild seems pretty good. And the rebuild and plinth appears to be well thought out and good q... | |
| Rega P10 v Complete rebuild Garrard 401! Hi Gunner,Thanks for sharing your feelings about experiencing a comparison between a rebuilt Garrard and a Rega, etc.The main thing that guided me on my desire/quest to own a nice 301 comes from my friendship with the great music producer/record c... | |
| Rega P10 v Complete rebuild Garrard 401! BTW, If you decide to go for Rega, get a P8. It is 95% of the P10.I used to be a Rega dealer. | |
| Rega P10 v Complete rebuild Garrard 401! Check out the YouTube titled Gerrard 301 vs Studer Reel to Reel.An amazing video using the new SME $23k 301. The best sound quality YouTube I have heard from the UK Audio Show! | |
| Rega P10 v Complete rebuild Garrard 401! I was faced with this exact choice. The new Rega P10 or a rebuilt Gerrard 301/401. When I found a beautiful a Woodsong 301 used on US Audio Mart it was a God Send! Chris at Woodsong does an amazing job. And as good as the Rega is, the idler drive ... | |
| My First USB DAC Sounds Dull, Please Help I am a dealer and carry the Benchmark. Assuming you have a good DAC, for a PC you must also use a piece of software called an ASIO driver. This is the only way to bypass the operating system of the PC. You are now listening to the internal DAC of ... | |
