| Is it possible to have vinyl nearly noise free? Cleeds, we ( the audience ) could not believe it ourselves. This seminar is also where I learned to never play the same vinyl over and over again, if we wanted our records to last, and sound like new, for a longer period of ownership. Believe what... | |
| Double Advent wiring question... To the op, as long as you are happy. And in reply, shaming others, I don't think so. Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| Double Advent wiring question... I experimented with double Advents ( slightly raised off the floor, top pair inverted, and did the same with other speakers as well ), and although " nice ", they are bettered today by a plethora of modern slim towers by Polk, Infinity, Klipsch, E... | |
| Who is using their DAC as a preamp? Another post about passive. Just try it, and, for a while. Believe me when I say, I had 2 preamps above an RP5 in sq, that colored the sound, held back details and information on my recordings, and unnaturally added balls and oomph to the music. L... | |
| Who is using their DAC as a preamp? My Adcom GDA 700, feeds my Luminous Audio Axiom II, with Walker Mod, 3 in, 2 out ( single ended ), with remote, feeds any number of power amps. I replaced a few excellent preamps with this, soon after I purchased a very high gain power amp ( Nufor... | |
| Is it possible to have vinyl nearly noise free? In my early days of being in the audio business, I was invited to an exclusive seminar, given by a cartridge manufacturer ( it was either Shure, Stanton, or Empire ). We were shown a video of a stylus tracking a record ( recorded microscopically, ... | |
| Technics SL-23 TT opinions.. mated with Denon DL-103? When I was into vinyl, I was beyond all of the lp playback gear mentioned above. Just saying. If I were buying a Denon 103 ( or any low output mc cartridge ), to be used on a Technics SL 23, I would rewire the tonearm cabling, without a doubt. I w... | |
| Used Amp Under $1000 It appears the particular DNA1, as you selected above, has been overhauled, so, imo, you are good to go. Odyssey, although excellent, is a very warm sounding amp, if you like that. The CJ as well. The particular Classe has less " balls ", or " oom... | |
| Used Amp Under $1000 I have not heard the Vidar, but it is getting a lot of positive press. It is also new, with a trial period. I love trial periods. I have owned a few McCormacks, as I am a fan of Steve's work. In my experience, however, amplifiers of his, 20 years ... | |
| What is the best sounding Pre/Pro 7.1 channel with analog bypass. I would move this question to the Home Theater section, as more folks would help you there. This section, imo, is more of a 2 channel thing. | |
| Solid State Preamp Under $8000 Have you considered trying a high end passive unit ( could experiment with a cheapy first ). I did, and cannot go back. But, this is me, and my own experience. | |

| SONY TA F808ES I would ask your father if it has been serviced ? If the 4 Sony and 4 Toshiba transistors are on separate channels, doing the same thing within the circuit, I would assume it has been serviced, and the Sony transistors were no longer available to ... | |
| Manufacturers pushing their products and agenda in the forums. Not to long ago someone on here started talking about a product that was unlike any other product. He / she owned the product, stating it was better than everything else. How unbelievable this product was, talking about the technology, the whole ... | |
| Lightning quick DYNAMIC amp in the under $1000 range tomic, I agree, but George spoke about horizontal bi-amping in this situation. |
