| Reel to reel Anyone considering a R2R should first find out if they can get it worked on, should it need repair, and if parts are available.If they're going to get it refurbished, ask about capacitors and transistors; they won't cost much more if the unit isn'... | |
| Reel to reel The last few days have caused me to reorient my entire line of thinking; I had planned to upgrade my rig with a Koetsu Urushi cartridge and a Herron Phono pre when funds were available, but that's a lot of money.Honestly folks, those funds may nev... | |
| Reel to reel No, this had absolutely nothing to do with any of the gear, someone else had the same problem, it was entirely do to the room acoustics; as a matter of fact, it took a lot of troubleshooting to discover the problem was "room acoustics". In reality... | |
| Reel to reel I've just been listening and evaluating this morning: vinyl from computer hard drive, just fine. If you're not getting the same results, you're doing something wrong.LP's recorded at 7.5 are good; the new thing is CD's recorded at 15 IPS; will or... | |
| After all, you're listening to the power supply. I just received some NOS tubes this very day, that had the same results. | |
| Reel to reel Just a little while ago, I recorded "Trance Mission", Meanwhile; Meanwhile, is the title of the CD. It has cuts titled with names like "Chasing the Moon Rabbit". Instruments include didgerdoo, clarinets, percussion, winds and digital atmospheric... | |
| A DAC that can make digital sound analog? Thank you for the correction; that's what I meant, but I didn't state it properly. | |
| Fate? Karma? Purgatory? Help me put a good spin on this. I'm insulted that they called what ever it is the "Juke joint festival". | |
| Reel to reel Wynpalmer, while most would probably agree that Otari and Studer are better than my Technics RS1500; The results I'm getting must be due to the fact that I replaced all the electrolytic capacitors with "Black Gates" (this was before they stopped ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I saw both Groove Holmes and Jimmy McGriff live, but not together,in the 60's. Until you hear giants like them live, you ain't heard nothing.Organ is the one instrument that the recorded media can not reproduce, the dynamic range and the frequenc... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Stephane Grappelli & Michel Petrucciani - Misty, has to be the most romantic. | |
| Jazz for aficionados I didn't realize how much I was hooked on this tune until I heard these two versions; if somebody paid me to pick one, I would have to decline; they're both awesome. | |
| Which Has Best Sound Quality -- CD vs. Tidal vs. FLAC Uploaded From Burned CD My CD's to WAV are identical; I don't know why yours aren't? | |
| Jazz for aficionados I saw this really beautiful girl, and I don't recall the circumstances, but I saw her more than once; no, I never even met her, but she made such an impression on me that I had a dream about her in which "Misty" was playing throughout the dream; a... | |
| A DAC that can make digital sound analog? To go where no audiophile has gone before; past the vinylsphere, beyond the CD zone, and into the far off R2R quadrant. This is the destination one reaches when he records 2 track at 15 IPS and plays it back. No longer do I equate audio in terms... |
