| Tube preamp for phono and headphone use. Rogue 99. Need to use high impedance phones like Sennheiser 600 or 650. | |
| rega P25:spacer with new mat? There is an extended lock nut that allows you to add another 2MM spacer. Music Direct stocks them. | |
| So I heard some B&W Signature 805s today... Wilson Benesch Arc. Absolutely one of the least boxy sounding dynamic speaker other than other WB speakers. Tonally very accurate with a very natural midrange. The speakers is very flexible on placement and can be played very load (110 db) without... | |
| What is the warmest receiver... I'll concur on Marantz as well. Also at higher price point Magnum Dynalab | |
| Whats the best platform/support for Hydra Black Diamond MK IVcone/thick puck combo or source board and MK IV combo. Open sound, linear. | |
| Tonearm cable recommendations I would recommend one of Audioquest's DBS interconnects. Perfect for phono application since the cable is run in by having the dialectric constantly be charged. Cable is very open sounding. I use the Cheetah, its great. Jim | |
| Tube Phono Preamp ? ? ? Audio Note RIAA is very nice. Over your budget at 800, MM only. | |
| floor vibrates like a speaker There is a simple answer. Black Diamond Racing Pits (carbon fibre material $60 each). Will make speakers sound better anyway and with deal with the floor movement. | |
| Audioquest Cheetah- Anyone? Chams_uk, thank you. Cables can be subjective and system dependent. I guess thats why there are so many choices. | |
| Audioquest Cheetah- Anyone? I have the cable in my system pre to power, phono stage to pre, cd to pre. Chams_uk if you havent heard them how can you echoe other comments? Absolutely the best interconnect I have used. Not sure what Jkphoto was listening to but just to see the... | |
| Floorstanding Speakers Cannot correlate stand mound vs floorstanders with regard to roomsize (or anything else really). Example, Totem Arro are floorstand great in small toom. Wilson Benesch Discovery or Dynaudio 25 anniversary are stand mount and could fill a large roo... | |
| Cables for Theta Processor/Amp?? for your digital the Creative Concepts Siver bullet. It is a killer cable. 600 for 1m. | |
| Stereophile confirms new gear is getting worse.... What happened to listening to stuff and making your own choices. The magazines are purely for brand awarenss and entertainment. The reality of it is there is more quality hifi now in all price points than ever. And the choices for vinyl have never... | |
| Cables for a fledgling system I think you need to budget more money. If you have 300-450 to spend get a good interconnects first from your cd to pre, then pre to amps. I would recomend some used Audio- quest like some Python or viper. If you want more forward character then No... | |
| Considering B&W 804's with my Naim 135 setup... 804's are nice speakers. I think there are better in the same price point that I think are more natural and musical that I have used with a 32.5/hicap/250 combo. Thiel 1.5 (now 1.6) , Proac 1.5s (or now d15 , or even 2.5s). Also used Wilson Benesc... |
