| 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... | |
| DAC Compatible with PS Audio SACD Transport @smatsui & @dcpillai My bad & my apologies if I gave out incorrect information. It was not done deliberately. When I ordered the PSA transport, I never did any detailed research on the DAC side of things and thought that any DAC with... | |
| DAC Compatible with PS Audio SACD Transport @dcpillai I also own the new PSA SACD Transport for almost a year now. I have it paired with a PSA Gain Cell DAC, as I could not afford both the new Direct Stream and the Transport at the same time. To get all the SACD goodies that the PSA h... | |
| What to listen for? On Elvis’ ’Kentucky Rain’, I swear you can hear the air in the recording studio just as Elvis starts to sing ... ’Seven lonely days and a dozen towns below" and again at the start of the next verse ... ’So I am walking through the rain, thumbing f... | |
| Speakers for a unique small room I have been a major fan of Zu Audio speakers, both floor standers & monitors, over the last several years. I have both floor standers & bookshelfs in my living room & second bedroom systems. Very dynamic sounding. Both LPs & CDs... | |
| Hana ML teamed with Pro-Ject 1Xpression carbon classic and Rega Aria Curious. I had been using an Ortofon 2M Blue and vocals were not quite sounding right, they sounded off a bit, not as deep as they should sound, if that makes sense. I swapped in a Goldring E3, a less expensive MM cartridge, and that helped, not... | |
| Hana ML teamed with Pro-Ject 1Xpression carbon classic and Rega Aria Hi - If I might ask what do you find lacking with the Ortofon Bronze? You have some nice equipment; what is not sounding right for you? Or do you feel that the Bronze is not in the same league as some of your other equipment? Many thanks, Ri... | |
| Primaluna pre paired with a class D amp I am not sure how many PL owners would pair a $3K tube pre with a $1K Class D amp. I do the reverse ... a PL Prologue 5 power amp with a Musical Fidelity SS cd player/ preamp (CD PRE 24). I also have a Rogue Sphinx v3, which would be the confi... |
