| Cartridge Upgrade for Rega P-25 Table I have a couple of Denon 103D's that SoundSmith redid. I also have a Zu Audio/Denon 103 currently on my Oracle Delphi MKIV.I did try one on the P25, but really didn't like it that much. I can't remember why? Maybe just a poor match or maybe it was... | |
| Cartridge Upgrade for Rega P-25 Table I have a fully modified/upgraded P25 and have used many different cartidges, all with pretty good success. You say no price range, so it's kind of hard to narrow down. I'll list my suggestions from expensive on down:Lyra Delos (overkill for this t... | |
| Can 10W 300B tube amp drive Martin Logan Ascent i? Agree with the above. I was a ML dealer for a long time and the Ascent i's will eat that little 10 watter for lunch. If you listen at VERY low levels, it will work. | |
| Idol fans weigh in I'd rather watch paint dry. | |
| Anyone heard Glenn Frey's New Album, After Hours? I got this on Tuesday when it was released. I've listened to it several times through and agree. Glenn has an excellent, (but aging voice). The songs he choose to cover, work well with his talent.This album reminds me of the first Michael McDonald... | |
| Rita Wilson-"AM/FM" While listening to this again, (and liking it even more), I was sure I recognized some of the duet and back-up vocals. Sure enough, helping her on this album are: Chris Cornell, Sheryl Crow, Jimmy Webb, Jackson Browne, Faith Hill, Vince Gill, and ... | |
| Got Noise? Mark,It could also be something coming into the preamp. I would unhook everything from the preamp except the AC power cord and the output cables to the amp. This would be like starting from square one.If you hear any noise, it is either the cables... | |

| Got Noise? Mark, have you tried unhooking everything from the amp except the AC power cable and speaker cables. That would eliminate all but the amp and the AC power into it.I have heard that the KWA150's can be a little noisy, but from the transformers as a... | |
| Best Rock Album in 2012 Richard_stacy,Thanks for the Hiss Golden Messenger-"Poor Moon" recommendation. I had never heard of them. Called the album up on MOG and am really liking it. Need to order the CD I guess. | |
| Thoughts on Amperex PQ tubes Shakedown...great choice of preamps! I really liked my SWL9.0SE Signature, (I have since upgraded to the Modwright LS100). Unless Dan changed something, you can't use anything but a 5687 tube, (or variant) in this unit. If you are talking about th... | |
| Thoughts on Amperex PQ tubes Excellent tubes. I have quite a few of these in my collection and have always thought highly of them. Of course, it really depends on the device/circuit they are used in. Try some and see. | |
| are some phono stages more resistant to hum? One of my phono stages is the same ARC PH-3SE as you have. I have used this with at least a dozen different tables and arms and have never had a hum problem.You are absolutely right that a "shielded" cable/wire should have a much better resistance... | |
| Squeezebox Touch simple 24/192 output mod Kenny,Please keep us posted as soon as you get a grasp on the Welborne Power Supply. I have a Squeezebox Duet and have been thinking about this PS. I have read that it really only affects the analog section and I am not using the analog outs, just... | |
| Best Rock Album in 2012 I want to add another one to my list above:Lucero-"Women and Work"I've listened to this new CD quite a few times now, and I like it even more each time I hear it. I really didn't like Lucreo's first few albums, but this one is killer. Hard drivin'... |
