| Apple TV 1080P version and Marantz SA8004 Thanks for the input. I just had the SA8004 arrive today. As I've gone to almost straight analog, I recently sold my Wadia 270/27ix separates. I still wanted a player that would play both red book and SACD but I also wanted the ability to stream I... | |
| Wadia S7i direct to amp In my opinion all Wadia's sound best running direct to the amp using a balanced approach. Congrats on the new Wadia purchase. It's a fantastic company and products! | |
| Apple TV 1080P version and Marantz SA8004 Thanks - just wondering if it would work and if anyone has done this with an AppleTV and SA8004 and the results they obtained. Thanks for the feedback - I'm contemplating purchasing these and trying it out. I'm mostly into analog/vinyl, but want a... | |
| Get Stoned I agree, its hard to imagine this would make a significan difference, but I firmly believe everyone's system has strengths and weaknesses and improvemnts for some might not be for others and vice-versa.That being said, as a former VPI Aries 3 and ... | |

| Turntable, but which one? I'm a big fan of TW Acustic. Of course, much of this is personal preference and system dependent. But if you like solid deep bass and a high mass table that gives great solid, 3-D images, TW deserves a look. | |

| Dead Can Dance 2012 Tour Just scored a sealed copy of the live DCD LP "Toward the Within" in double Lp vinyl. Hard to find but finding it sealed was ridiculous. What a record, what a band. I would love to see them live. If only they would come to Oklahoma.....sigh..... | |
| Airtight PC-3 users, tracking angle? If you use what's recently been discussed over on Fremer's site (www.analogplanet.com), mimiking the cutting lathe angle of 92 degrees (stylus head leaned slightly forward and tip angle slightly back) is the way to go. Using my dyna XV-1s, in my s... | |
| Electronic stylus force gauge question I've actually had this happen before with a digital scale - probably the same one you are talking about that has the same cosemetic design as several sold by Acoustech, Audio Additives and Pro-ject among others. Believe it or not, the darn thing w... | |
| Record Clamps, which one and why? Another vote for the HRS | |
