| Which phono pre with CJ Premier 14/Linn/Devore I also hit a matching problem, when an unmodified Stereo 70 sounded better with the CJ PV-6 preamp than their so-called matching amplifier CJ MV-75(?). I'm not sure that is relevant to your situation, other than maybe looking to see if the Premier... | |
| Pros and Cons of "Staying with" Analog and Vinyl I think what Hoopster was hinting at with suspended subchasis turntables(or at least one advantage that I've heard)is that the noise(clicks, pops, etc.)is put into a different plane from the music. So, when you listen to the music, you don't hear ... | |
| Pros and Cons of "Staying with" Analog and Vinyl Mlsstl, I've found vinyl recorded to digital really close to the original vinyl, also. I don't want to make blanket statements on format based on that, though. There is a huge amount of digital out there that does not equal vinyl. By having analog... | |
| Optimizing TNT, Triplanar, Transfiguration Temper When I said "that last paragraph", I meant the last paragraph from Ptmconsulting's first post here on 12/09/11-the one under his 6). | |
| Optimizing TNT, Triplanar, Transfiguration Temper That last paragraph from Ptmconsulting rang a bell inside my head. When I was dialing in anti-skate with a gimballed arm(not unipivot), and I tried to equalize the sound in both channels, I lost my excitement for listening to music. I then put the... | |
| Cartridges: low output vs. high output I believe in the past, the general scuttlebutt was that LOMCs were superior to their high-output brothers. Of course, most of the people who said this, probably had phono stages, with their associated costs, that could handle the LOMC. | |
| TECHNICS SL1200 MKII.......THE REAL FACTS There are a lot of needle-drops on Pink Fish Media that have Technic turntables(SP 10 and, I believe, one of the 1200 series). I think most use other arms, and have some modifications, if anyone is interested in hearing for themself. There are als... | |
| TW-Acustic Raven 10.5 or DaVinci Grandezza?? I just want to point out how hard it is to get at the truth of things, when people argue with the purpose of trying to attack a person. | |
| CD's vs Vinyl - Finally hear the difference I have heard a digital system that was so different from analog, that it was interesting on an intellectual level. I think it is possible to enjoy it just for that reason. I don't think it was as relaxing as vinyl. I would have to have this in my ... | |
| Tri-Planar with no anti-skate? This advice is not specific to the Tri-Planar, and may be only specific to my Ekos/Arkiv(but I don't think so). If the last song of an lp sounds the best, you have too much anti-skate. It's usually just a tiny bit too high. I would not use channel... | |
| SME 20/3 or Oracle Delphi VI or Garrard 301 I would include the Linnlp12 with Radikal/Dynamic(their dc motor and supply). You can listen to needle drops of it on their(and some others)forum. I mention this because you asked for more suggestions. | |
| LAST Record Preservative. Do you believe? I received a Rolling Stones' album that had been treated with Last("Sticky Fingers" or "Let it Bleed"), and thought that it hurt the dynamics. I used Stylast on my cartridges, but now use Disc Doctor. I thought Stylast was okay or good. | |
| Magic Eraser used for vinyl cleaning? This is a little off-topic. I was told by Oritek to not use the turntable as spinning mechanism, if the turntable is belt-driven, because this could stretch the belt. This would be when you use a brush or something like the magic eraser or micro-f... | |
| How can anyone afford this ? All of sudden, WHAM! I was hit by what Hotmailjbc says. The vitriol was amazing. I think what you saw with the economy shutting down, was due to greed. I do think the obvious age discrimation that exist in hi-tech needed to be dealt with(by having... | |
| How can anyone afford this ? I don't think a person can just use the mind to make audio purchases. I have made mistakes doing it that way. Just because an item gets good reviews doesn't mean one should buy it. Also, you can get the same buzz by buying some cheap tweaks. I kno... |
