| Speaker wattage question If pushed, do I risk damaging a driver, or will I simply get clipping? In my experience, most speaker drivers will blow because of clipping. Yes, you can send to much power (wattage/current/voltage) to a speaker and pop it, but normally clippin... | |
| Mobile Fidelity Introduces UD1S Analog I wonder if MoFi will use the clear, super virgin vinyl pioneered by Classic Records? I don’t believe they are. It will be virgin vinyl of course, but I think it will be black.I have a lot of the Classic Records clear formula LPs, and I’m not rea... | |
| Mobile Fidelity Introduces UD1S Analog Some UHQR are selling for $300-$500. Try WAY more than that. Sealed copies of "Dark Side Of The Moon" and "Sgt.Peppers" UHQRs are selling for over $1000.From what I understand, "Abraxas" was chosen because it was next in line for the Gain 2 ver... | |
| Mobile Fidelity Introduces UD1S Analog The first release "Abraxas" should be out in about 4-6 weeks. Pricing is $99.99 each title. Abraxas will be a 45RPM, 2LP set.There will be a limit of 400-700 copies per "convert". Not sure how many converts can/will be made per album. Should be a... | |
| Difference between Schiit Modi Versions The Modi 2 has only USB input. The Uber & Multibit models add toslink and RCA inputs. What source are you going to use?I think the small difference in price for the Uber would be my choice. | |
| 3.5 to RCA Cable It is the Evergreen. I bought it from Amazon about 2 years ago. It was the least expensive Audioquest cable at the time. The Tower model must be a newer item. I went into my Amazon bought orders and I paid $26 for it. It is 1 meter. | |
| 3.5 to RCA Cable I replaced my freebie cable from my Bluetooth adapter with an Audioquest 3.5MM to RCA cable. It was their cheapest one at the time, I think I paid around $22 for it, it’s green.I noticed an improvement all around. Worth the small investment. | |
| Transports: CEC TL5 vs. Audio Note CDT-Zero II? I've owned several CEC transports and currently use a TL-2. Wouldn't give it up for anything, (well, okay maybe a TL-0) :-)Can't speak to the Audio Note, never heard one. | |
| Priorities... Which would you prioritise for an upgrade - mono blocks, pre amp or speakers? Depends on what I currently have. | |
| Allman Brothers at Fillmore East, which one? I think I remembered MF saying the MOFI "Kind Of Blue" was "Kind Of Blah". You need to actually read the article. The title was to catch reader's attention. He gave it an 11/10.http://www.analogplanet.com/content/mo-fis-kob-kind-blah | |
| Sanders Sound Systems 10E - The Genius has done it. Roger and Angela are the best! Great people and company. | |
| Anticables speaker wire have no plastic jacket/insulation? The Anticables have a very thin coating on them, so unless they have been "nicked", no worry about touching.FWIW, I tried them several years ago and really didn't like them.YMMV | |
| Who has tried "TIDAL" vs other streaming applications? Just a quick correction, Tidal is 1411kbps, not 14,400.I agree with both cerrot and jond, once dialed in, Tidal is vastly superior to any MP3 service. | |

| What in the world is going on..... I thought I was the only one who really didn't like this album. Guess not, but Fremer sure creamed all over it.http://www.analogplanet.com/content/simon-and-halee-reunited-again-make-musical-and-sonic-magic |
