Sansui 9090db, best match vintage speakers I spent a fair amount of time in 1980 listening to a Sansui 9090db driving Snell Type A. Amazing! Search for Snell and you'll find plenty of info. | |
Budget Phono Amp / Stage Recommendation? My vote goes to the Cambridge 640P. Great performance for the price. I've owned it along with NAD PP2, Bellari V129, Musical Fidelity V-LPS and Parasound zPhono. In my system, the Cambridge was quieter, had better detail, better low end, and bette... | |
preamp help Roggae, I'm glad to hear this. Aside from giving more gain and being louder, how does it compare to the Bellari? | |

Rega S300 versus RB300 It looks like the S300 was made for Sota. More than likely, it's just a rebadged RB300. Rega did this for a number of TT manufacturers. I can't say with certainty, but I doubt there's a significant difference between the two. The main thing you ne... | |
Dahlquist DQ-20 Fan club Rant I have also wanted to upgrade just to have something new but find that nothing is quite as clear and airy as the DQ20 without maybe spending 10k+.You should audition any model of Alon or Nola. They're direct descendants of the DQ-20 designed by th... | |
Why Upgrade the Rega Counterweight? I heard a significant improvement in the bass when I replaced the stock counterweight of an RB300 with a Michell Tecnoweight. Here's a good review that explains the design: Vinyl Engine: Michell TecnoWeight | |
Belles 150A with Totem Arros I haven't heard this combo, but I'm sure it will sound great. The 150A is an excellent amp and shouldn't have any trouble handling the 4 ohm load of the Arro. | |
DL 103 I agree with Marty. The built-in phono stage of the Modulus is excellent. You just need a SUT between it and your TT. | |
How to eliminate TT feedback/vibration What device do you recommend for a rumble filter? Of course, some phono stages have it built in, but if the one you own doesn't, what do you recommend? | |
Technical question re: Dahlquist LP-1 You can download the LP-1 user manual at the Yahoo Dahlquist group. It explains quite a bit. | |
DL 103 From what I understand, the Auditorium 23 was voiced around the DL-103 and is an excellent match. The problem is they don't come up used very often and they're quite expensive new. 6Moons raved about them in this review.For commoners like me, the ... | |
