| What is the Phono stage you have finished with? I thought I could live with a Sutherland (good for price/performance)for a year, while I go about auditioning some phono stages to settle with.I heard the Allnic 3000 after 2 months at a friends place, and the game was all over for me then. it sui... | |
| SOTA Cosmos or Garrard 301 ? Just to keep Gmuff on target...Get a Basis with a vac and synchro and be done! :-)But most of all enjoy whatever you get, It's the soul satisfying notes and the relaxed shoulders that matter. Also occasionally not having the desire or compulsion t... | |
| Is the Basis 2001 a solid enough table to keep. Basis- Get it - Set it- and forget about it!Once set up, the Basis just does not need any tinkering with for that constant-optimum performance - It just does it all the time. Consistency-Reliability and Commitment (to perform) I have got into anal... | |
| Emm Labs CDSA 'X' upgrade I believe most of the boards are to be changed - TBC. | |
| Correcting drifting with Sutherland Timeline Thanks Albert for all the great answers. It did place a smile on my face when I realised that it could join the stylus force gauge, protractor and other knick-knacks in the tt accesory drawer.One final query, especially since you have a great TT/A... | |
| Correcting drifting with Sutherland Timeline Thanks for the insights Albert.So does this mean the speed should 'not' vary on the turntable once you have removed the timeline. I would have thought that given the weight of the timeline, having it on or off the TT, would cause a deviation in sp... | |
| Correcting drifting with Sutherland Timeline To all Timeline owners-I take it that you have to use the Timeline unit (laser switched off)continuously to maintain speed accuracy once set.What if you have a different clamp or puck for a vacuum system over the spindle to enforce a seal, then I ... | |
| positioning of a horn speaker Definitely too far apart to cause a lack in centre imaging and bass definition.You will have to move them closer to each other, or sit really further away. Also as morningstaraudio mentioned toe them in so they cross in front of you. but I still f... | |
| EMM labs DAC2 can be used with Apple? How does this combo compare to the Playback Design MP-5 single box player? | |
| Power amp s for Avantgarde Duos? Please could you provide more details on the the Elna caps and values. Also how long did it take to burn in before you found a change in sound. thanks in advance, Neville | |
| Do enzymes only live for 8 hours Depending on the type of enzymes, they do start being less effective after their use by date/time. It's like the carton of milk it doesn't turn bad the minute the second hand goes past it's use by date! | |
| How many more years before cd's become passe? Psacanli,You are right in the respect of not being able to avoid the marketing hype from the music companies that would come with such downloads- new artists, samplers of new songs scheduled for the next release, and the list goes on....I can't se... | |
| How many more years before cd's become passe? I see quick, easy to use and effortless download of high CD quality as the future for us audiophiles, where if you are not a hardware music format collector(vinyl or silver discs), large libraries/music companies offering an extensive collection o... | |
| Memory Player vs Dedicated PC-TopUSB Conv and DAC Sbfx, thanks for the input. What I heard which floored me (like it did for you) was a USB2 output converted to AES/EBU or S/PdIF via 24/96. I don't think it had the sound card doing much.If you do get a chance to get 24/96 through your dac, then p... | |
| Memory Player vs Dedicated PC-TopUSB Conv and DAC Audiooracle- I am not doubting MP's playback levels being superfine. All I want sound comparison between a well built PC with reliable software, good converters such as Emperical's and a fine dac and the MP.I have heard the former (PC-Emperical-fi... |
