| Is it possible to have vinyl nearly noise free? @slaw+1 | |
| Does anyone use wood for vibration control? Mapleshade makes some excellent products for audio. All Maple. I use them under all of my equipment. Rollin | |
| Is it possible to have vinyl nearly noise free? I exchanged emails with Rush Paul a couple of years ago. He turned me on to the Walker 4 step system. It also had become obvious that I needed a good vacuum cleaner (VPI and several others). I used the Walker system for a couple of months and hear... | |
| PRIMA LUNA AMPLIFIERS I wonder if anybody has ever been unhappy with their PL gear. | |
| PRIMA LUNA AMPLIFIERS I’ve had a PrimaLuna Dialogue Premium pre-amp and HP for a year of heavy listening (8-12 hours per day) everyday. About two months ago I added a second HP to mono-block into ATC SCM-19V2s. I rolled the EL34s to KT150s even though the EL34s sounded... | |
| New Member And few questions on First Tube Amp. Before you buy any equipment go to a dealer and ask to listen to both. If you're hearing impaired the higher the quality of sound you are able to get the better you will hear it. Most any dealer should be happy to let you audition them in their sh... | |
| Want to upgrade my cartridge from 2m blue to black I think @chakster is a little ignorant when it comes to this issue. I've upgraded tone arms (which a TT upgrade would do) and used the same cart. The sound improvement was significant. Putting a shibata tip on an ortophon blue is like driving a bo... | |
| Looking for the best Preamp with a phono circuit built in You should look no further than Conrad-Johnson. They have excellent build quality, a very fine phono pre and the line is a wire with gain. They make one in your price range and sometimes they can be found used.Rollin | |
| VPI 40th Anniversary Table After Warranty Support Question My experience with VPI is mixed. I’ve had three, two different Classic models and a Prime Signature. On one of the Classics, the tonearm pivot point was defective after battling cartridge alignment for about three months. I called for help and the... | |
| Looking for suggestions on best small footprint speaker under $4K ATC makes some very nice bookshelf speakers that are incredibly accurate. They are easily within your price point.Rollin | |
| What are the best speakers you have ever owned and why? I have had JBL L-100s for over 40 years. I have upgraded the crossover and they sound splendid. But as for accuracy my choice would be ATC. They come in all sizes and right down to the smallest bookshelf they will reproduce what is coming through ... | |
| Highest BUILD quality tube amps? Plus 1 on Prima Luna Dialogue Premium and the HP power amp, assembled in China. Also BAT. Check out the videos that Kevin Deal does on BAT and Prima Luna at Upscale Audio. I have noticed that only one person has mentioned Conrad-Johnson. Superior ... | |
| What preamp creates the largest soundstage? I actually started with the pre-amp then went to the power amp. I was using a Conrad-Johnson PV6 going into a FET 120 wpc amp. They both had been recapped with the latest upgrades from the manufacturers. The sound was still small although quite li... | |
| What preamp creates the largest soundstage? I have a room the same size. I have a Prima Luna Dialogue Pro HP (KT150’s) and the Dialogue Pro preamp going into ATC SCM19’s. I have the speakers in a "near field" position in an equilateral triangle at 5’ c/c and 5’ from my head. The sound stage... | |
| Simple and Effective Upgrade for Wall Wart Power Supplies I use a jell-pack battery with a charger. Total cost <$100. With many different voltages available just divide the VA rating by the current drain of the device and you'll have the hours of play before a charge. It's surprising how a small batte... |
