| Reference 3A Grand Veena's Waltersalas(Chris): I've been trying to contact you for some time, but I no longer have your e-mail address, and Audiogon's new format isn't exactly user friendly when it involves e-mail communication unless one is inquiring about an item a seller... | |
| Cartridge recommendations for TW Acustic 10.5 arm. Dr_john...With that 10.5/TW Raven Limited/Kansui combo, I'm interested in knowing if the sound conveys somewhat of a warm, supple, easy to listen to quality. Would you also please tell me what your electronics and speakers are? Sincere thanks. | |
| Alternatives to Synergistic Research Tricon Phono I'm sorry, Alex, but I haven't heard the Cardas Clear or Analysis Plus Silver Oval phono cables. As for the Cardas GR, despite the fact I no longer own it, I still strongly recommend it. It's just that the Purist Proteus Provectus brought me to a ... | |
| Power Cords--Your Preference? Wegrzyn Copper Slam pc is very satisfying. Very musical and stays away from an unpleasantly hi fi-ish sound. Walter Wegrzyn offers excellent value, deals direct and is a true gentleman. | |
| Alternatives to Synergistic Research Tricon Phono I have owned the SR Tricon Analog and have owned or tried several other well regarded, under $1000 phono cables, including the Hovland Music Groove 2 and Furutech AG12. Though I found the Tricon detailed and revealing I missed the kind of fuller, ... | |
| JPS Aluminata or Synergistic Research's Tesla Prec Based on what I gather from your experiences and comments above, you might want to try a slightly mellow or warm sounding speaker cable---something that just might help provide a touch of "romance" to your overall sound by giving you a little more... | |
| JPS Aluminata or Synergistic Research's Tesla Prec I have owned both Aluminata and Synergistic cables, though not the SR Tesla, but the Accelerator. My guess, and I emphasize GUESS, is you would have a better chance of achieving synergy by going with all Aluminata instead of inserting the SR Tesla... | |
| Tone arm bounces Try sending someone an e-mail with the new format---doesn't work like it used to. | |
| Warm Interconnect.... Agree with Stringreen. Purist for the antithesis of hi fi-ishness. | |
| Shipping Vinyl Records.. Ditto Grinnell--use media mail | |
| Cartridge recommendations for TW Acustic 10.5 arm. I currently own the Dynavector XV-1S. It is a very fine cartridge, however, I'm curious about the Kansui and the very low output Benz. Based on the resonance frequency chart at resfreq.com/resonancecalculator.html the Kansui might constitute a bet... | |
| Classical Record Labels and Recording Engineers... Just to clarify: Earlier Lyrita pressings, produced by Decca, are thicker and sound better balanced than later pressings by Nimbus, which tend to sound a bit bright. | |
| Interconnects for cd player Like Pdreher, I should have also highly praised the KCI Silkworm. Its Plus version is my interconnect of choice. The Purist Proteus Provectus has been my preferred tonearm cable. Both cables, in tandem, provide a wonderfully natural and musical so... | |
| Interconnects for cd player So why not stick with Purist? In my expereince, it does the best job of presenting MUSIC while minimizing hi fi-ish intrusions. | |
| Problem matching Benz LP S w/ SME V or IV.Vi arm ? Also, forgot to mention: where it says, "Read this following statement, then read here", when one clicks on "here", a NOT FOUND screen pops up. |
