| War of the Worlds, The MiniDSP SHD vs Analog @erik_squires , TacT audio imploded also. They were way ahead of their time, too far ahead. Their Theater processor also lacked HDMI. Had they stayed alive it would have been added. The remnants of TacT you know as Lyngdorf. Time and processing p... | |
| War of the Worlds, The MiniDSP SHD vs Analog @fuzztone , I think you are probably right, but this is a very temporary setup for me and the goal was to spend as little as possible. If you can afford two high quality DACs by all means, go for it! I spent a few hours listening to a wide varie... | |
| The new Linn LP12 50th Anniversary edition Now the LP12 has gone from junk to really stupidly expensive junk. There is a sucker born every minute. | |
| War of the Worlds, The MiniDSP SHD vs Analog @erik_squires Then the question would be would substituting DACs improve the performance. There are two SPDIF outputs one for channels 1+2 the other for channels 2+3. It is a unique possibility. Would it get you to the performance of a Trinnov A... | |
| War of the Worlds, The MiniDSP SHD vs Analog @erik_squires , I have plenty of experience with JL Audio's subwoofers and crossovers. There is absolutely no comparison to digital crossovers and full frequency room correction. Even the diminutive MiniDSP wins that battle hands down in combinati... | |
| My turntable sounds like the speed is too slow First off make sure it is the turntable. Do your other sources sound normal to you? If they do you have a problem either with your cartridge or phono stage. Look at the cartridge carefully, it the cantilever straight? It the diamond still there a... | |
| CSPort Turntable speed control @rauliruegas , Mark Dohmann enlisted MinusK to help design the suspension under his turntable because he realized that it offered benefits that no other type of suspension could. You have to look into what a negative stiffness suspension does. The... | |
| What is the appeal of the Denon 103 cartridges? Cheap | |
| MM or MI Cartridge? I went through that phase just recently. I have owned Grados and Clearaudios, but the best so far overall was the Soundsmith Voice. It punches way above it's price point with exceptional tracking and remarkable neutrality. I gave it to a friend fo... | |
| I NEED A 16 INCH CORK TURNTABLE MAT @asvjerry , now you are really wandering off....post. | |
| CSPort Turntable speed control @rauliruegas , The SME 60 is a fine turntable. It has all the feature I deem crucial in a turntable. It's major issue is the price and the fact that you can not get it without the arm. I'm sure the arm is excellent. The Dohmann's claim to fame is ... | |
| Digitally recorded vinyl vs streaming @mojo771 , I am going to agree with @mikelavigne on this one. I record vinyl to a hard drive on a regular basis using the same system Michael Fremer uses from Channel D. In 24/192 it is extremely hard to hear any difference between the digital re... | |
| I NEED A 16 INCH CORK TURNTABLE MAT @asvjerry , cork is very stiff. I do not think the repositionable spray is necessary. Cork is also very porous. It is possible that slower drying cements might bleed through and trapped air will bleed right through with gentle pressure. I would us... | |
| CSPort vs TechDAS @chauncey , good turntables do not sound or rather, they have no sound. If you want to spend that much money on a turntable look at the Dohmann Helix 1 or 2. Dohmann also keeps in stock the arms he feels are well designed and match his table and ... | |
| I NEED A 16 INCH CORK TURNTABLE MAT @asvjerry , Da. 16" is right. OP must be refurbishing an old broadcast table. And, treating the spindle hole with Loctite also a good idea. 18" fine also. @autospec , I just thought of another way to do this that is much less intensive. Get the c... |
