| How much do you need to spend to get digital to rival analog? Gallus, priceless.Zalive, I can still hear fine up to 18 kHz. I have had many issues with CDs over the years I suspect to various problems with links in the chain.It is obvious from many albums such as The Trinity Sessions that digital recording ... | |
| Wayne's Audio Problems? 80, There are several things you could do. 1st would be to get a mid weight oil like 5W-30 auto oil and lubricate the ferule with that. If that does not work you can buff the ferule on a polishing wheel with gray compound. A Dremel tool with a fel... | |
| Help me decide between these two turntable/cartridge combinations Get the Rega and put the Ortofon on it. | |
| Riaa Advise I would go with the PH5 | |
| Turntable cost:benefit Kac, cost benefit ratio was what I was taking about. You want the most performance for your money and don't feel like spending $60K on a phono set up like most of us. So, you look for the point of diminishing returns. Somewhere between $10K and $1... | |
| Turntable cost:benefit Kac, one step at a time. You either like vinyl or you do not. I’ll assume you do. First, toss the Sumiko and get something like a Lyra Kleos. Next get a SOTA Sapphire and a Kuzma 4 point 9.you have just hit the point of diminishing returns. To do ... | |
| Turntable Asw, bad in joke I suppose. Up here in New England we have been led to believe that Hurricane Maria sent you back to the stone age because main land USA did nothing to help you. (political blamesmanship)The rags have you living in caves eating you... | |
| Upgrading from Lyra Skala -- Kleos SL or Ortofon A95? Both of these are great cartridges for sure. I have not heard these exact models but I have a Windfeld Ti which is an A95 with cloths and a Lyra Atlas SL. The Ortofon is a fuller, rounder round, the Atlas thinner and seemingly more detailed. I pre... | |
| How much do you need to spend to get digital to rival analog? Geoffkait, My old Nakamichi Dragon is in a box buried under a lot of other boxes up in the storage room right where it belongs. To compare cassettes to Hi Res digital is like comparing moonshine to Remy Martin XO. Zalive, if you do not like the sy... | |
| shibata or microline, pls respond ONLY if you specifically have tried both. My thoughts exactly chakster. Cakyo, your arm is depending on the erroneous fact that most cartridges are build correctly. You can adjust the azimuth slightly by raising and lowering the back of the arm if that is possible. Azimuth is more importa... | |
| Who knows something about Tri-channel 3-channel stereo for music (not HT)? Right. Klipsch started doing this for the simple reason that K horns had to go in corners and in many rooms this put them too far apart leaving a "hole" in the middle. So they developed the La Scala as a center channel speaker to run in the middle... | |
| Cartridge Set Up Essentials dodgealum, the DB System's protractor is the most accurate because it magnifies the error. It is also relatively inexpensive. You need a small pocket mirror to set the azimuth (steal one from your wife), a stylus brush,a digital stylus gauge, A sm... | |
| Moving Magnet Cartridge Recommendations For Thorens TD 124 & SME V Tonearm My first TT was a TD 124 with an ADC Pritchard Tonearm I bought used at the Audio Lab in Harvard Square (RIP) I was 13.Anyway, you bet the Clearudio Charisma V2 followed by the Ortofon 2M Black. The Clearaudio is the better cartridge but the Ortof... | |
| How much do you need to spend to get digital to rival analog? I already sold all my CDs except the special ones like my RT personally signed copy of Shoot Out the Lights. I downloaded them all to a hard drive and sold them to Bullmoose Records for store credit which I turned into records:) It took I think it... | |
| What is wrong with audiophiles? 1+ atdavid, I will go on to add that this experiment had an extraordinarily defective design and in the end it does not tell me anything. So having never tried cable elevators I still can not say if they work or not other than in the minds of dera... |
