| Amps which are Great, but either Unknown or Underpriced Some of these replies really surprise me since the OP ask for Unknown or Underpriced.But there are many good nominations as well. And one I'll +2 on is Monarchy | |
| Speakers that are very accurate sounding but don't produce an emotional connection. Interesting that some of the discussion here focused on the spectrum just above 200 Hz. To me this is lower midrange territory since over many years I've read references to the bass range being the first three octaves; thus from 20 to 160 Hz.Howe... | |
| Turntable for life dchang1981,I owned an original (square motor) WTTT many years ago. I was a good basic table but I added a few modifications. The original platter was replaced with their later (black) version, and I added damping to the arm stand and silicone cu... | |
| Tonearm recommendation Well, Raul can certainly speak for himself. Except I'm afraid when he does it sometimes throws more kindling on the fire.So consider this, English is not his native language. And to make matters worse I suspect he does not review his own posts c... | |
| Suspensions on turntable...really effective? A question on magnetic suspension -I can see how it might be effective for lateral vibrations, but how about vertical vibrations? Once the magnets are strong enough to support the weight of the table assembly would they then not then be stiff in t... | |
| 9 year old Parasound Jc 1s or new Bel Canto 1000m monos? bubba you don't say if you own the JC-1s or are considering purchase of an older pair VS new Bel Cantos.If you don't have experience with the JC-1s I can offer this, having owned them for several years. I've been in the audio hobby for decades an... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Dover, that may have been a typo on your part. The SP-20 was another in their series of studio and consumer motor units. The mastering lathe model was the SP-02.http://www.lathetrolls.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=1223Huge difference. ;^) | |
| Another Best sounding room Bruce and his crew continue to offer Vandersteen at his Stereo Unlimited store in San Diego. I bought Vandys from him three times. | |
| Epi/Epicure M1000 vs. Duntech Sovereign Any dealer who would call the Sovereigns or any John Dunlavy design as a "one hit wonder" would discredit their opinion on any audio subject for me.I owned Duntech Princess (next model down from the Sovereigns) for 19 years. During that time I au... | |
| BHK Sig. 250 ? I can’t suggest they are close to equal but VanAlstine offers two hybrid amps for much less money than the PS Audio. I suspect you get what you pay for with the Bascom King design but the VanAlstine may be within reach for some who can’t budget f... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Raul, welcome back, good to see you enter the fray again.After you stopped replying several folks ask about you but no one seemed to know. Some assumed you simply grew tired of the trials (or found musical nirvana and saw no reason to press furth... | |
| A new player in the quality Mono cartridge game Regarding stylus shape, I expect one must consider which records are being played. Few if any mono cutter heads remain which means these "modern" mono reissues are being cut with stereo heads. And that leads to consideration of tip shape and siz... | |
| Proper Room Acoustics/Designs The room within a room seems it might be excessive for domestic systems. That may be more justified for recording/monitoring room designs.A less expensive option might be utilizing 2x4 studs on 2x6 sill plates. Then stagger the studs so every othe... | |
| BHK Sig. 250 ? Paul demoed the BHK amp(s) at THE Show Newport last summer. So typical show conditions with unfamiliar room and components, but I still came away impressed. It was a fairly large room and partnered with Legacy speakers. Very clean, detailed, and d... | |
| Nude Turntable Project Henry, thanks for continuing to update us with your trials. Material choice can be tricky and I believe there are some misconceptions about benefits.Years ago I read advice to try a marble cutting board for placement under a turntable. I'm not sur... |
