| Turntable Isolation Journey mulveling, I'm late to the party but want to add my thanks for your information and starting this helpful discussion. Somewhere I read a recommendation for this product. I've not tried it but it seems to be a very inexpensive device to try. It... | |
| Turntable Isolation Journey Just an additional follow up -- I’m really enjoying this setup now. It sounds absolutely wonderful - engaging, organic, full-bodied, liquid. Good depth to the image. Very smooth. VERY low listening fatigue. All the things I like. Absolutely fantas... | |
| Turntable Isolation Journey Yes special shout-out to @mmcnult1 (Matt McNulty / The RockDoc) -- I’ve been friends with him on Facebook for a while now, and he’s been an all-around helpful and friendly guy in several of the audiophile groups there. I knew he does a lot of work... | |
| Which SUT to match Koetsu Rosewood Standard in my system? For Koetsus I like the Koetsu SUT best, followed by the EAR MC-3 / MC-4. But the CineMag / Bob’s Devices 1254 / 1131 / Sky models are also excellent for the money -- musical and fun to listen to. The EAR’s have a 10x tap but for my 0.3mV Koetsus (... | |
| Why Are There So Many Used Rogue ST-100's Being Offered For Sale? As others have rightfully pointed out now — it’s simply a popular amp that’s been out for several years. If you’re looking for nefarious undercurrents you’re not going to find them here. There are simply a lot of units out in the field, and over t... | |
| Is there a ceiling limit on what you are willing to pay for an audio component? If I had the money there is literally no limit to what I would spend on a component. The most I’ve put into a single component now is north of 30K. That’s still a lot less damage than a divorce or any other myriad of bad choices men make in life. | |
| New to Preamp - Preamp suggestion around 10k @cming0038 Nice! If you’re happy with the resultant sound, that is what matters. Having a reference system (or systems) and comparing gear over time will develop your ability to quickly pick out a specific component’s sonic disposition (warm &am... | |
| Turntable Isolation Journey Hey Folks, Hopefully within the next two weeks I will have my TechDas III Premium S. Note the S as that denotes the newer isolation feet. Initially it will sit a bit behind but within two feet of my right speaker. It will be on an inexpensive bu... | |
| Audio Research in Receivership. So basically, it looks like ARC is probably going to be fine after a blip. Too many people speculated way too hard with NO useful knowledge on this situation. The guys who were asserting "ARC is closed for business" should be considered for bans. | |
| Question about wpc on tube amps Ah, I neglected to the heed budget of $1,000, sorry 😅 I agree with others, that’s not a budget where I’d typically recommend a tube amp, especially at the power levels needed for Magnepans. However, if it’s not a hard limit, with some patience yo... | |
| Turntable Isolation Journey Yes, let’s keep it veered towards friendly and non-political -- or at least less political since it's hard to avoid these days. Sure we’re mostly Americans and Canadians here; we generally like each other but also love to rip on each other :) @wh... | |
| Question about wpc on tube amps I’m a big fan of tube amps, but when it comes to sheer power, watts are watts. There’s no magical "tube watts" that’s going to make 50 Watts act like 100 (etc). And as for tubes’ famed "soft clipping" -- a push/pull tube amp with feedback (typical... | |
| Turntable Isolation Journey To be clear, the wall in question here is an outside wall. There is indeed a lot of vibration energy going through the walls too, but the Auralex foam tile I’m using to couple the rack to the wall helps reject a lot of this. It’s a give-and-take b... | |
| Mobile Fidelity Settlement Update After the settlement was reached, however, a few plaintiffs filed a motion complaining the deal was unfair and provided “inadequate relief.” Who ARE these people?! Yes, I’m sure you’ve been so severely damaged by the revelation that digital mas... | |
| Turntable Isolation Journey Well thanks for the tip about spikes into hockey pucks for speaker footers! I’m amazed at what it did for a pair of Pure Audio Project speakers on a sprung floor. Just snapped everything into focus and took the goo out of the midrange. Much bette... |
