| The nightmare of the cartridge buyer... Tang, in addition to the economics that were pointed out in the article, there are these;https://wealthisbeingtranfered.wordpress.com/2012/06/12/wealth-is-being-transferred-from-us-to-them/Markets were manipulated with corporate money, under the d... | |
| The nightmare of the cartridge buyer... People on this forum are the most uninformed, self centered people I have ever encountered as a group. Evidently setting up a high end turntable, buying, and installing a cartridge requires more attention than I realized.If demand was ruled by de... | |
| Reel to reel deck directly to power amp ? Kalali, thanks for that source. | |
| Reel to reel deck directly to power amp ? Inna, I said it once, and I'll say it again; unless you have a source for good "blank" tape at a reasonable cost, forget about a reel to reel, and if you have a source, please inform me. | |
| Reel to reel deck directly to power amp ? Almarg, if you're saying that .775 volts is enough to drive an amp, you're more mistaken than the rest.If all of youse chip in, you might be able to round out that square peg you're trying to fit in a round hole by chipping of the corners, or mayb... | |
| Reel to reel deck directly to power amp ? An output to control volume to "pre-amp", not power amp.. | |
| Reel to reel deck directly to power amp ? There is a line level control for recording level and out put level to "pre-amp", not amp. The RS 1500 puts out a max signal of .775 volts, while a good pre puts out a max of 20 volts for the power amp.From my point of view, this is a case of the... | |
| Reel to reel deck directly to power amp ? Inna, that's a very bad idea; what you are talking about is "line level" signals, tape, tuner, etc.Preamp out is what goes to amp in, not a line level signal. | |
| The nightmare of the cartridge buyer... "SERENDIPITY"; that's my word for the day. It's when you fall down a hill, break your arm, but discover a pot of gold where you fell.I started with a Grado Platinum, traded up to a Grado Sonata, and immediately broke the stylus, on the brand new ... | |
| The nightmare of the cartridge buyer... If you are a music lover, it takes years to choose a cartridge because of the many different personalities of cartridges.Most of the comments seem to indicate there is some kind of absolute value that can be attributed to cartridges that can be me... | |
| Reel to Reel Tape More than anything, I miss EE blank tape. | |
| Best MM? Well Raul, to make a long story long, I will tell you a minute part of what I've done to have unaltered music.To begin with, I have custom speakers (don't recommend it, wouldn't do it again) ; they are so neutral that the slightest change in inter... | |
| Best MM? Raul, I agree with your take on "I like it". That's why my speakers are as neutral as possible; I only want what the musicians who made the record intended for me to have; I'm a music lover, not an equipment lover.When a person becomes an audioph... | |
| Reel to Reel Tape Digital is the only "affordable" high end. Once digital has been recorded on a high quality reel, it is no longer digital; the playback is pure "analog". | |
| Reel to Reel Tape Raul, I don't have the resources to make the comparisons you suggest; consequently, I have to be satisfied with the results in my own little laboratory.I began my "high end" journey in 1990 when there were two excellent high end salons that I spen... |
