Help me to choose turntable below 1600$. Marantz TT15 - merely a rebadged Clearaudio turntable with an $800 cartridge. I think it's being discounted now below the $1600 I paid for it a couple of years ago. | |
Established popular artists who released real stinkers "Trans" - Neil YoungFulfilling a contractual obligation to a record label should never involve your fans, Neil. You owe me whatever I paid for that POS. | |
Did you know....? That Zep's "Going To California" was more or less about Joni Mitchell? | |
Gregg Allman passed away today Damn. Truly bummed to learn of his passing. | |
Thiel Owners That would be great! Bryston has serious cred. | |
Tell Us about an Album That Took a Long Time to Grow on You PS: The first album I bought on the "new" CD format was Thick As A Brick - the very notion of not having to flip the LP seemed tailor made for that record. Woof! | |
Tell Us about an Album That Took a Long Time to Grow on You Having been a perhaps too big a fan for Aqualung it took me a few years to wrap my head around Thick As A Brick by Tull. I was expecting Aqualung Part Two but instead received something that made me re-listen to their entire - back then - catalogu... | |
Thiel Owners dnanstad...I am currently using a Simaudio 340i integrated with my 3.6's. Previously I had a Pass Labs X150.5 amplifier, 150 into 8ohms, 300 watts into 4ohms with my CS3.5's and it was possibly the best combo I had. So much so I foolishly sold my... | |
Who is the WORST Audio Shop? Cleeds...Not returning to a rude retailer is indeed the best course of action but letting them know your experience is necessary. While unrelated to audio, I had an experience with a "premium" car dealer that was so over-the-top miserable that whe... | |
Small living room speaker options.. Totem Arro? While I haven't had personal experience with the Arros, I started with Rainmakers w/REL sub, then moved up to Hawks without sub. The Hawks put out a surprising amount of bass given their slim size, something you may find requiring minor fidgeting... | |
Who is the WORST Audio Shop? Enginedr1960...Thanks for the tip...my sister lives in Stuy Town. Next time I visit I'll drop into that shop! | |
Who is the WORST Audio Shop? I am a lifelawng and proud of it New Yawkah so the generalized aspersions cast upon NYC residents genuinely offend me and contradict my personal experiences, and life. In that I find most of the remaining hifi bricks and mortar operations to be s... | |
Thiel Owners Moving away from the Thiel platform is a difficult task in that doing so laterally or moving up the proverbial food-chain obviously comes at a cost. No one here has yet commented on the new Thiel product line which, as it so happens to be, has as... | |
Thiel Owners nkonor...Good point on the 3.5's midrange. I find that the 3.6's, for lack of a better term, seem to over-emphasize the thick of the midrange while the 3.5's offered a more "spacious" replication? I also notice a more evident, but typically corr... | |
Thiel Owners Psssst...Upscale still has it for $3899. Reno has one for $3795...with a 1 year. Why am I looking at the Neo like it's gone...?Happy hunting/listening! |
