| Complete vinyl system, TT to speakers, for $1500? Go with a TT and powered speakers. See which brands are available from where she would be most likely to shop and go from there. Different electrical standards to consider as well. I would think that something like an Audio Technica 120 would ... | |
| Turntable for girlfriend Put together this system for a friend. Amazing sound for little money. Color options on the speakers. Owned the AT 120 TT when I came back to playing records. Nice TT, especially attractive in black. Can also swap out cartridges easily. Well... | |
| What was the craziest location that you made an audio purchase from? On a bus in Italy going from the cruise ship to Pisa, I used my iPhone to buy a Unico CD player from Upscale Audio. Rich | |
| Omega speakers -- mostly sold out, all the time? I know Louis and have owned 4 different Omega speaker models over the last 20 years. The Super 7 Mk II are my personal favorites. Rather than guess as to what his business model may or may not be, call him. He builds to order for the most part.... | |
| Music Hall CD25.3 CD Player The lack of reviews could be because this model is brand new. When the 25.2 was originally sold almost 20 years ago, it was a well regarded player. The Music Hall players were re-badged Shanling players. Curious as to how 25.3 sounds. Rich | |
| DAC Compatible with PS Audio SACD Transport @dcpillai - Huge bummer. Going back to our original conversation, is it possible the at the end of the day, you need a current production PSA DAC with the I2S configuration? The issue you are having is the identical problem I had. And granted... | |
| Tubes, Tubes and more Tubes... @ Dill - my apologies as no disrespect was intended. I got from your experience that you were running an on-line business of selling tubes. This was not what I was getting from the OP and certainly not what I saw myself doing at that point in m... | |
| Tubes, Tubes and more Tubes... Hi Dave - This is from personal experience, which I don't believe you have heard from yet. My dad had a repair shop that he opened up following his return from the Army in 1947. His stock in trade was TVs, Radios, and all Appliances. The busin... | |
| Brooklyn Turntable Setup Maybe give these guys a call and see if they offer a set-up service. TURNTABLE LAB 63 Flushing Avenue BLDG 3 / Suite 810 Brooklyn, NY 11205 | |
| Integrated Amp Shopping Decisions Have the Rogue Sphinx. Have paired it with both the Technics 1210 & 1500. The built in phono on the Rogue is as good as the Schiit Mani phono (which I owned at one point). I also have the PS Audio DAC and SACD transport in the mix. Zu Audio... | |
| Vintage 1980's Fisher MCE 4050 Audio component system question By the 1980’s, Fisher’s stereo compacts were made in Japan. I believe Fisher was being made by Sanyo at that time. I believe Emerson Radio was out of the picture by then. You can get a user manual on eBay. Rich https://www.ebay.com/itm/1345016... | |
| Top turntables under $2k I have the Technics SL-1210 paired with a Rogue Sphinx Integrated and Zu Audio Omen Bookshelf speakers. Very good synergy to these ears. Rich | |
| Arcam FMJ UDP411 Universal Disc Player There is this player from Panasonic. It is not universal in the sense there is no SACD. It does give you your analog outs. Rich | |
| Ray Charles - "Rap is not music" Ok folks - We are 75 posts deep on this discussion. Has the discussion moved the greater understanding forward at all? Anyone's underlying beliefs shift at all? That's what I thought. Let's just put it down and go back to rolling tubes and sw... | |
| Considering Zu Dirty Weekend over my current B&w 702s2 Happy DW owner going on 4 years now. Also have the Omen Bookshelf speakers in a second system. These speakers just sound so alive to me. I use the DW's with a Prima Luna tube amp and the Omen's with a Rogue Sphinx integrated. The Zu speakers d... |
