| Whats on your turntable tonight? Thanks Jim @tomic601 | |
| Referent point Everyone knows it's Dixieland on Quad ESLs. The 1957 variety. | |
| Audiophile Priorities and Recent Topics I just wanted to get input on where audiophiles were assigning priorities in the build out of their systems. I can’t remember not tweaking the same pile-o-rig for 10 years. Some minor tweaky changes make massive improvements. I’ve listed the drud... | |
| why do people think the LINN LP 12 is so superior to the Thorens (say 165 super) If it is such a great turntable why all the continual upgrades? The same could be said of your 911 ! | |
| A turntable that plays all types of music well The two LPs just didn't have the same thing on offer for the cartridge to pick up? I have a decent collection of 50s-70s jazz records. You can hear the sound quality change as they moved from tubes to transistor, from live to studio mixes, and ... | |

| Jorma no.3 cut a small piece and make jumpers @chayro You are correct. I didn't think it through. It was past midnight! | |
| Cartridges with that musical coherence - having heard it, I need to learn more Different angle. My upgraded London Decca SuperGold sings on my upgraded 401. | |
| Unplug or ride out the storm? @millercarbon. Impressive damage. | |
| Unplug or ride out the storm? Just shut the breaker off, that is if you took the time to put the hifi on a seperate circuit. No need to unplug if the breaker is off..We had a direct lightning strike. Hit the flashing on the brick chimney. Fried two breakers whereby the flipswi... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Roger Waters – The Pros And Cons Of Hitch Hiking (Harvest 1984)Bought it when it was released. Still remember being blown away by it. Technics belt drive, Rotel amp and cheap KEF speakers. "Sexual Reeeevvvolution." They were the days. Thought we w... |
