| Best Bang for the Buck Upgrade It's a 'system' so changing one thing is just a part of the bang... Improving your power to the system ( I use and recomend Puritan Audio PSM136 or PSM156) will upgrade your source and amplification in one swell foop. I have dedicated lines and... | |
| Puritan PSM 156 Just got my PSM136 and no owners manual, just a plastic bag of ground master ads, testimonials and what not. There is a 5 year guarantee certificate enclosed, you write in the purchase date and dealer details, the serial number already filled in. | |
| RIP oregonpapa Very saddened to hear this, wishing his family strength at this difficult time. From The Art9 cartridge, PPT products and purple fuses, found Franks listening impressions to be good solid recomends and I was rewarded with great sound by trusting ... | |
| Interesting information from Analog Planet on Stylus Cleaner Onzow Zero Dust. @mulveling .. +1 on this: "Whatever cleaning regimen you choose, full stylus & cantilever brushing should be a part of it." Sometime over the last week my vinyl lost some of the magic. As part of this Onzow gunk thread, I've been scrutinizin... | |
| Onzow ZeroDust reportedly leaves a residue Using my Carson 8X magnifier (from office max) and LED flashlight I was able so see a similar debris buildup on my cantilever. At this level of magnify I can't see the stylus very well. I eagerly await WallyTools lab analysis of what this stuff ... | |
| Onzow ZeroDust reportedly leaves a residue I clean my Onxbow with a brush after every few cartridge smushes. Wonder if those close ups are re-deposited Lp detritus from a stockpile of stylus cleanings? | |
| Hegel Mohican & Bryston BCD3 @jafant -- I purchased a factory reconditioned but new Mohician (had been returned for some reason) for $3,700 my thinking was my 20+ YO Musical Fidelity A5 player wouldn't outlive me so wanted to get something that would outlast me while you can ... | |
| Hegel Mohican & Bryston BCD3 @jafant .. really like everything but Opera, hard core country and rap.Heavy into Progressive Rock, 70's classic rock, Jazz and Jazz fusion, and some folk like Fairport Convention, Pentangle etc. Only listen to classical on my Bose Wave radio, rar... | |
| One big reason why brick and mortar high end audio dealers struggle. Over the last 15 years been in 3 audio shops.The first one I went into to buy a power conditioner, and while there asked about a used CD player they had for sale. The salesman asked me about my current player (musical fidelity A5) then proclaimed ... | |
| Hegel Mohican & Bryston BCD3 recently bought a Mohican, and looking forward to comparing it to my VPI prime with Audio Technica Art9 cartridge.Initial impressions are really good but awaiting a pre-amp repair to fully compare the two. | |
| Your last concert was to see who and when? King Crimson 9/7/2021 Mann Music Center Philadelphia Pa.3rd time seeing this 3 drummer lineup and probably the best of those shows, the setlist emphasized their heavyier songs (Red, Starless, Cirkus, Epitath, Court of the Crimson King, 20th Centur... | |
| My Experience With Tekton @ missioncoonery .. not shilling, I've never heard any Tektons, was just pointing out that Stereophile's Herb Reichert and Jonathan Atkinson apparently hear Tekton differently than you.Who's credibility should one take, theirs or yours? I noticed... | |
| My Experience With Tekton In the spirit of 'pouring gasoline on the fire' may I point out the Tekton impact monitors made the Stereophile recomended component list for 2021 where JA commented on their 'superbly even on axis response' JA concluded 'this unusual design is no... | |
| Getting into Stevie Ray Vaughn +1 on the DVD Live At El Mocambo .. his cover of Hendrix's Third stone from the sun is fantastic.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYEEovuhsgY | |
| Favorite Guitar Solo I agree not a fair question, like picking your favorite pistachio in a 10 lb bag. But for homesickness played thru a guitar, Son Seals 'going back home'https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=son+seals+going+back+home |
