Vintage Mitsubishi / MGA Separates question I wish I had a pair of the Mitsubishi speakers but alas, I already have too many speakers - and not enough space! | |
Vintage Mitsubishi / MGA Separates question If I had nothing else I could happily live with the Mitsubishi gear! It is musically satisfying! Now if it came with four-figure price tags the audiophile snobs would like it more! | |
Vintage Mitsubishi / MGA Separates question I am one of the few that have a Mitsubishi preamp, amp and tuner in the collection! In Japan these components carried the Diatone label. And considered as desirable high-end gear! Sound quality excellent! Right at this moment I'm using the DA-F10 ... | |

Seasoning your sound with powercords Power cords as tone controls! LOL! | |
Well Tempered Amadeus MK1 - What cartridge would you recommend Hana SL (Shibata low-output). A lot more affordable than a Dynavector mc! | |

Acoustic Research AR 3a and related electronics Instead of selling them keep them for use as a second home system! Add a signal source (analog or digital) and you'll have a musically satisfying system! | |
Acoustic Research AR 3a and related electronics Back in 1970/71 the AR receiver with the AR 3a's would have been a real nice system to have at college! And the AR TT with the Grado FTE cartridge for LPs, of course! | |

Then use a Variac to slowly power up overnight to give the caps time to warm up and form. Afterwards connect a dipole antenna and hookup a pair of speakers... | |
Acoustic Research AR 3a and related electronics There's a pair of nicely restored AR 3A's listed here on Agon. $1200! So they are worth something to somebody! Give yours a good cleaning, oiling the veneer, get inside and spray the pots with Deoxit, treat the rubber woofer surrounds with Armoral... |
