| Coming out of the blackhole called work...retirement Don't get sucked into the cable hype. They are high profit items pushed by dealers. A $2000 amp does not need a $500 cable. | |
| Done buying new vinyl Some great points. At the end of the day, we are in agreement. It is the recording/mixing and not the pressing or the medium. I played my 1968 White Album which is not in the best of shape. Pops, crackles, frying eggs, the lot. Yet the music burst... | |
| System Dissatisfaction - My Own Fault I guess you are ready to trade in the wife. If she doesn’t net you the $6k, stick it on a card. Or buy used. There are a few KSA100/150 for $2k out there. #youonlyliveonce | |
| Ortofon Red/Pro-ject Carbon Debut combination; rolled off hi-frequencies. Solutions? The 540 should help. Try a granite shelf on brass cones. I found MF amps a bit dull. I swear by a $10 Belkin IC. No longer made but available on Ebay. Highly detailed and balanced. https://m.ebay.com/itm/BELKIN-Pure-AV-High-Quality-Dual-RCA-Audio-... | |

| Strange buzzing from turntable Check cartridge leads. | |
| Coming out of the blackhole called work...retirement Amg56 - nice car. Be careful not to overspend. An unscrupulous dealer can see you coming a mile away. You do not need to blow 6 figures on this. You need more records! | |
| Putting your components inbetween your speakers. Is imaging better down the length of the room or across the short length?What about near-field? | |
| Turntable sounds so much better when... @ivan_nosnibor Where Where? | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? "Party" Aldous Harding. #Interesting. | |
| Done buying new vinyl Yes, veiled. Blanket is right. I thought there was something wrong with my rig. I just played Joni Mitchell Shadow and Light and it sparkled and felt just right. What on Earth are they doing to the music? I also bought three new remastered Roy H. ... | |
| A "primer" on soldering... Hot and fast. Heat the metal not the solder. Buy a sucker. | |
| Tom Petty autopsy released @jmcgrogan2 I doubt he's happier now! | |
| Cartridge help You have switched to MC at the back of the amp? Try the 47k MC mode. |
