TT speed
I had pitch problems with my VPI Hw-19, with a linear tracker (Clearaudio Triquarz) as well as a pivot arm (SME V). Now, with a Hanss T30, with a superior dual motor / 6 string system, I don't have them.  
Sub for single-driver desktop speakers
The Submini was first placed under my desktop, but the bass integration with the FR2 speakers (on short stands on the desktop) was not optimal. It sounds better on the desktop, firing towards me, more or less in line with the speakers. My goal is ...

The Submini and Arche system now works fine in my home office. Complaints minor.      
TEAC UD-701 vs NT-505 vs ?
I can only chime in, one year listening to the NT-505, streaming Qobuz. Have not heard the newer models. What is clear, is that the 505 needs break-in time. It does not outperform my vinyl rig, but now sounds very good. This is into a tube system ... 
Madman! Digital vs Vinyl
Tomic601 - so they say. But is it really such a big improvement in digital sound, from "good mid level", to "top level"? I don't have much experience. But from what I've heard, it still sounds digital to me....  
Madman! Digital vs Vinyl
I do this once a year - testing the state of digital streaming, vs vinyl. In my system, vinyl still rules. I compare a high end analog chain to a mid-end digital chain. So of course, analog wins. Even so, I note that the gap is getting smaller. I ... 
H E L P !! Network issues with Teac NT 505?
I  am running the Teac nt-505 from ethernet with zero problems. Including streaming from Qobuz and Tidal, and playing files from my main home computer, through Minimserver and Lumin. I don't think you need another streamer. BTW, the Teac sounds ve... 
Congratulations (yet again!) to Duke!!
Somewhat delayed - my congratulations also, as owner of the Dream Maker speakers developed by Duke, and the LCS effect speakers, developed by Duke and his partner James Romeyn. Very good value indeed. Audiokinesis is now maybe the leading company ...

Cool down folks. Even if Agon isn’t "political", everything is. Some are out to grab more cake. Some are accused if they dont have golden ears - or, some condition. Take it as it comes. Over here in Europe, many are concerned that the US will be p... 
Your single most significant purchase mistake?
Purchase of wives - or husbands - not funny. If you wonder why there are few women on this forum - look here.  
About users with hidden agendas
Spot on, gemoody. A badge is worthy of consideration. But maybe a dealer / manufacturer disclosure in the signature is OK as a first step. To make Audiogon a better forum.    
About users with hidden agendas
As long as manufacturers, sellers and others with commercial audio interests sail under their own flags, openly - and dont post to the detriment of others - I am OK with it. I also have quite good experience with my Synergistic Research A/C Maste... 
Best Bang for the Buck Upgrade
A user above mentions "silver link RCA for a startling uplift in information transmission. " Can anyone confirm this? Silver RCA plugs and sockets making a big diff??  
About users with hidden agendas
There are objective listeners, half-way objective, and the 'money talks' group. Hopefully a small minority in this forum. I am of course NOT thinking of those who disclose their attachments openly, who often contribute a lot to the forum (e g Ralp... 
TEAC NT-505 - How good is it?
My Teac NT-505 now sounds fine, after more break-in, and runs without problems. I wonder, has anyone compared it to the newest version, NT-505 X? I am testing with three Cerapucs that I had laying around, to simulate the new 3 point floating feet ...
