| Whats on your turntable tonight? Jenny Lewis - 'Acid Tongue' Excellent album, great songwriting and great recording. Title track makes my walls dissappear. | |
| VPI 300 RPM motor clicking when starts Thanks Mike! | |
| VPI Scoutmaster and 300 rpm motor Interestingly, I am told I have an upgraded 300 rpm motor, that came with my Aries III, but the motor is 4.5 inches tall from the bottom of its rubber feet to the top of the stainless steel housing and my Aries III plinth is 4 inches tall from the... | |
| Best Solid State for Avalon Isis I would certainly consider Jeff Rowland products. Rowland is an outstanding company that has stood the test of time. His 301 monoblocks or 312 stereo amp may be right up your alley. Rowland has characteristically had a smooth top end sound, great ... | |
| VPI Aries III motor and Plinth not lining up Thanks Stan. No motor flywheel. Just stainless steel silver with single cylinder chassis. Four rubber feet on bottom. Just too tall for my Aries III. I think the feet cones are correct on my Aries III. Just completely perplexed. | |
| VPI Aries III motor and Plinth not lining up Thanks it says on the phone that VPI is closed until March 17. Bummer. I'll try to call. Just wondering what the dimensions were from a height perspective of motors and plinths of Aries III owners. My motor is 4.5 inches from housing to the bottom... | |
| CD Player choice for JRDG 9t's and Coherence II I have a Rowland Synergy IIi, Rowland 302, and Wadia 270/27ix with Cardas Golden Reference. I love the good match with Rowland and Wadia. It is almost analogue sounding - not one bit of fatigue. Detail retrieval is outstanding. Imaging, air and ho... | |
| Phono cables Thanks for the responses. I am beginning to understand things better. For those Cadence owners out there, what cables are you using to connect turntable/tonearm to the Cadence? How are you dealing with the XLR only issues with the Cadence? Even th... | |
| Starting an Analog front end - Rowland? Thanks Guido and all for the responses. I really appreciate it. I, like several others I'm sure, are looking for tube like quality from effort-free solid state gear. I think going Rowland is probably the way to go for me. Unfortunately, like most ... | |
| Looking for an amp to drive Eidolons Vision. I have Eidolon Diamonds and love the Jeff Rowland 300. I have had the following amps driving the Eidolons (Levinson 336, BAT 150 Se's, Classe' Omega) and for my taste the Rowland wins hands down. The 300 gave me the best of both worlds (rock solid... | |
| Help Levinson 334 buzz Sounds like the caps went bad. Common problem on the 334/335/336 series Levinson amps. Send it in for repair. | |
| Preamp for JRDG 302 + Avalon Eidolon gland you posted this thread; I also have a Rowland 302 and Eidolon Diamonds but running mine direct with a Wadia. I would also be interested in the preamp thoughts out there....... | |
| Pass Lab, Mark Levinso or JRDG for Avalon Eidolon Vtin, I run my Wadia direct into the 302 without a preamp. I'm entertaining getting a Rowland Syngery IIi though. | |
| convergent jl2 or arc ref 600 for my eidolons? You will love the Diamonds. Hard to believe, but a significant step up from the Eidolons. |
