| Dvorak Symphony No. 2 Classic records excellent Do you have the record number? So I might go to the store and look for it. | |
| To SME or not to SME? Why foucs on SME. Not saying it isn't a good turntable, just saying there are many more brands that maybe are equally good. When buying some new gear don't focus on one brand. Have a look around. Listen to some turntables like AVID, Oracle, TW Acu... | |
| Best type of stylus cleaner?? I use Stylast 5 and think it works just fine. | |
| Looking for a best TT without arm for under 10K. I would also take a look ate Holborne turntables. They don't have great looks but sound good. | |
| Weiss DAC2 or W4S or PWD or Zodiac + or . . . If I were you I would also have a lok at the Pink Faun DAC2 or DAC3 and BMC DAC1. The current BMC DAC doesn't have asynchronus USB the upcomming model will have it. | |
| Endless debate: monitor + sub vs floorstanding What about "full range" monitor like Totem mani II, AMR, Dynaudio C1, Focal mini diablo? Would speakers like that be an option.Also does you (pre)amp have a pre out. I don't think a sub should be connected to the high level output. To be honest I ... | |
| What does one purchase after owning horns? If I were you I would look for something like Blumenhofer or classic Tannoy speakers from the Prestige series. | |
| Does this dac exist? Sorry for going of topic. But how come I2S is still not the digital standard for a CD transport and DAC interface. As far as I understand it istechnically far superior to sp/dif, thoslink, AES/ebu, AT&T optical etc. | |
| My wifes birthday present - a turntable Yu are trice blessed.1) It seems your wife cares about your hobbies2) Your wife actually knows what a good TT is3) Your are rich enough to afford a Brinkmann LaGrange. | |
| What is a better speaker than Totem? for = $$$ I have always found it odd that Vandersteen is a big name in the US. But in Europe as far as I can tell they are hardly known at all. Audiomarkt.de is one of the biggest sites for 2nd hand audio ion Europe I think and I don't think I have ever see... | |
| My TT "wish list" This thread made me wonder. Why are DIN/SME plugs still used at all? And why don't we see more turntables with XLR outputs. As far as I know the output of a MC cart is a balanced signal, so why not use that.Even Naim has RCA outputs these days so ... | |
| Explain Amp classes & how effects sound? On a person note if I was looking for a power amp. I would look van a SS class A/B amp with a high biased Class A. So that normally you would play in pure class A but when you need lots of power for a second or two it would switch. So a 250watt am... | |
| Self-powered speakers: any good? Ojgalli you are right. But if a powered speaker is not an active speaker then I think it is a bad design. | |
| Self-powered speakers: any good? I think powered speaker are better the passive speaker in theorie. I do not own powered speakers. But let me explain. A true powered speaker would have an amp for each unit, unless 2 units take care of the same frequency. But if you have a 3 way s... | |
| Explain Amp classes & how effects sound? Also class D had NOTHING to do wit digital. Many people presume wrongly that the D stands for digital. This is just not true.There are amps being sold as class A but in truth some of these are Class AB with a high class A bias. But how much watt d... |
