| Platform for amp You went to a lot of trouble for this "amplifier platform" only to screw up the sound by placing it all on top of a high mass entertainment center. And when you factor in the havoc that is being wreaked on the rest of your components with this beh... | |
| Advice needed, MC cartridge for SpaceArm? Bombaywalla is correct that I do love the L2. And I did try several other cartridges on the Spacedeck, but not on the Spacearm. I had a Bluenote Borromeo for a while and it did not like the Shelter 501 or the Kontrapunkt B. I finally ditched the a... | |
| Speakers, confusion, any ideas? First of all, if you aren't using vinyl when doing these "demos", you aren't really hearing the music.Second....ok, there really is no second. That's it.Oz | |
| Benz Micro H2 or Grado??? Ok, granted I haven't heard the most expensive offerings from Grado. I will concede to you on this one. That is excellent news indeed if they are as good as you say, I should make it a point to investigate in the future.Oz | |
| Benz Micro H2 or Grado??? I only had the Reference Platinum. I have heard the Sonata, but not in my system. I'm not knocking Grado, a lot of people like them. But it's the Grado house sound that's not my preference. Oz | |
| Benz Micro H2 or Grado??? There is no way a Grado can compete with a Benz wood series cartridge. I have owned both and still own the L2. Hands down winner. Yes the Grado might have a "lusher" midrange, but it doesn't have the tracking ability, transparency or articulate bo... | |
| Using the VPI SDS with non-VPI turntables I tried the SDS with my Spacedeck and realized no improvement whatsover.Oz | |
| Isolation platform for non suspended turntable? I have always liked rigid coupling of components better than air suspended and the like. But the Promethean under my 'table is a great improvement. Better than a Sistrum SP-1/Neuance combo sitting on my Adonis rack. And I don't mean by a small mar... | |
| Isolation platform for non suspended turntable? You simply must try one of Geoff's Promethean Base isolation devices under your 'table. This thing works magic under my Spacedeck. It is on the order of a component upgrade. Seriously.Oz | |
| Spacedeck Vs. Scoutmaster Thanks for all the input. I have decided to stay where I am for now. The Spacedeck sounds very good. Sometimes I think I need to upgrade for the sake of upgrading. Not very smart. I may do a cartridge upgrade in the near future, I have considered ... | |
| Spacedeck Vs. Scoutmaster I already have the Mat-1 and love it. I was using the Neuance sans Promethean, but this setup sounds better. Footfalls are non-existant.Oz | |
| Amplifiers:A Keeper for Life. Do you know of one ? My modified Music Reference RM9 has taken on several comers and whipped 'em all. The latest was a CJ MV60SE last weekend. I'm not saying I'll never sell, but something better hasn't come along yet.Oz | |
| Speaker Cable to Replace Zu Cable Wax I had the Solo Crystal 8 cables for about 3 weeks. After about 150 or so hours I gave up on them. The midrange was lacking, sort of thin with a glare on vocals. I ended up with the Luminous Audio Synchestra Signature speaker cables. Much better.Oz | |
| Need more soundstage depth with Spacedeck and Ono I have the exact analog front end as you. I assure you something is amiss and it should wipe the floor with your Naim cdp.I agree with Spencer. Give the dealer another shot at making it sound right. Let him hear the difference in your digital and ... | |
| Schweikert VR4-Jr vs. Gallo Reference 3 with SA There is nothing wrong with acquring all the feedback you can when shelling out that kind of $$. This applies no matter where you live. But you have been dragging this thing out here and on AA for a while. I think by now you will have gotten most ... |
