| Recommendations for a jazz record which demonstrates vinyl superiority over digital "Cartridges / phono-stages should honour the RIAA equalisation curve." The RIAA curve has nothing to do with cartridges, it is compensation for some of the shortcomings of the vinyl mastering/playback system. The mastering side of the curve is... | |
| Recommendations for a jazz record which demonstrates vinyl superiority over digital "The Medium or the Source Method to hear produced sound, does not matter anymore" Maybe not to you, but to many it does. One should not state opinion as if it was fact. Sincerely, Robert | |
| Recommendations for a jazz record which demonstrates vinyl superiority over digital "I have several audiophile copies of Kind of Blue. The streaming version sounds the same and only costs $14.99 a month and includes half a million other high resolution albums and ten million red book CD quality albums. Much more cost effective th... | |
| TechDas Speed Issue "Try to readjust speed again with belt tension - like from the beginning. Go with lowest tension as possible. " vuckovic gets the prize! I actually was able to speak with Mair from Audio Salon who is the importer. He had me to exactly that. Mo... | |
| TechDas Speed Issue OK, I thought maybe somebody had run into the issue. And no, nothing is dragging. It is an air bearing with a separate compressor for the bearing and vacuum hold down. The power supply and and speed controller are in a box with the compressor.... | |
| TechDas III Premium vs Premium S Got the Premium III S installed a few days ago. A very impressive machine. Hope you folks are well and good, Robert | |
| Anybody Try A5s With Pass XA30.8? Thanks:-) | |
| VTL TL7.5 series lll VS VAC Master Line Stage VS AR Ref 6 VS Nagra Classic Preamp I have the VTL 6.5 III for the tubes and the high number of inputs including two tape monitors. The stock tubes were SHOUTY. I have not tried the Amperex, but NOS or lightly used and matched Mullards are quite nice. Y'all be safe, Robert | |
| Need advice In most experienced users minds there are many other tubes that sound better than Electro-Harmonix. For 6922s try the Phillips from Holland. Good listening, Robert | |
| Is there a difference between Linn LP12 lingo 1 vs lingo 2 other than the case? How does one recognize Lingo 4? Thanks, Robert | |
| Perfect Vinyl Forever As some have no doubt discovered, multiple cleanings can help. It was true with my VPI 16.5 and is still true with my Degritter. With some LPs the noise is baked in during pressing. I have an Anne Bisson that has been cleaned multiple times on... | |
| Anybody Try A5s With Pass XA30.8? Altecs are not my cup of tea. Not interested in speakers as an investment, I want some that will sound good with the rest of my system. Yeah, the T-400 is good stuff, but I want them to check it at least. I listen about 12 feet from the speaker... | |
| TechDAS Reliability vs SME "Dear @robob : " rehashed Micro Seiki 8000 ", well the man behind your TD III was in MS and take a look of one of the 8000 models. Yes maybe with a new advanced engineering but at the end we can know only if we can test both TT’s with with all th... | |
| Tonearm installation / turntable set up HOUSTON/AUSTIN area For those not familiar with Texas, Houston is 160 miles from Austin so Mike is apparently willing to drive or has multiple housing arrangements:-) | |
| ZYX "House" Sound I second the Lyra suggestion. The latest generation that started with the Delos and now goes all the way to Atlas are both detailed and full. I am on my third one as I have been moving up the line. I will probably stop here at the Etna Lambda S... |
