| Best Way to Use Turntable with System Cabinet So TWL, you are saying that optimally a suspended turntable should have its own stand. What about wall mounting of a shelf. In the eventuality that two stands are one too many for the system in the family living room, what is the best compromise (... | |
| Need Preamp Advice ARC VT100 mk2 Thanks John,Given that I don't have any true balanced sources, wouldn't the preamp need to apply a transformer to the signal somewhere? Is it the same problem all over again? Is it only worth going to a balanced preamp if you have balanced sources... | |
| Electrocompaniet ECI-3 vs Classe CAP-101 I've got a CAP-101 and I find it to be a really good amp. Good resolution, good bass. Not quite as engaging in soundstage as some higher priced seperate amps I've used: e.g. Pass Aleph 3 or a modified Jolida I own, but a pleasure to listen to and ... | |
| proac 2.5 vs 1sc/sub I also have 2.5's and find that I do need room reinforcement to get the bass I want. I recently had the speakers out 2 meters from the back wall, and didn't get sufficient bass. I've been wondering the same thing about the 1sc/sub combination. Let... | |
| Preamp for ARC-Proac System - Is Balanced Best??? I don't have any balanced sources. I'm interested in the ARC tube preamps, but have read that some sound "overly analytical" (???) and that some of the pre LS series have excessive gain for CD sources. Are there any I should avoid, or others that ... | |
| Preamp for ARC-Proac System - Is Balanced Best??? BTW - price point, about $1500. | |
| Good turntable equipped for about 700 dollars? Can anyone offer advise regarding the difference between a Linn LP12 and an Aerostan LP12? Thanks, Peter | |
| How do you find BEST classical recordings??? Pls1 - I need to compile the pieces and composers that I will be asking for advice on. But most currently, I've decided that I really like Vaughan Williams. I would love some advice about how to get into some of his best work and associated best p... | |
| How do you find BEST classical recordings??? Pls1 - I have to chime in to thank you along with all the others for the answer to my question. By the way, has anyone used AMG online? | |
| Good turntable equipped for about 700 dollars? Are there any additional considerations when buying a "transcription" table instead of a "normal" LP12? | |
| Neat Ultimatum Oh - I thought you were going to share with us a neat ultimatum about your audio habit. I guess it's not new years yet! | |
| Good turntable equipped for about 700 dollars? By the way Paul (or anyone else)... can you characterize the "Linn Sound" of the LP12? Thanks. | |
| Good turntable equipped for about 700 dollars? Thanks TWL and Paul. I'll keep my eyes open for a Linn table. I just got the Spica's in yesterday - puchased on a lark to experience good imaging. I have them 7 feet into the room based on the "golden rule" outlined on the Cardas site. The speaker... | |
| Is there a good DIY headphone amp out there? I should add that I'm looking for an actual kit, not a design that I need to execute. I'm a DIY newbie, but want to get my feet wet. Thanks. | |
| Good turntable equipped for about 700 dollars? Twl - could you provide a little more info on the Linn LP12 system. There are so many odd names around it. I understand that the LP12 is the table, and the Valhalla is an add-on power supply. But what options should I pursue vs. avoid? Is the Basi... |
