| $15,000 Floor-Standing Speaker Selection and Advice How about Franco Serblin Accordo Essence Loudspeakers. I've heard these at Axpona and they checked all my boxes. | |
| Odd DAC Pricing OP have you actually heard the Tambaqui? A friend has one and IMO it was nothing special, I've heard better. He also hasn't been thrilled with it and might be looking for something else. | |
| Shakti Stone Ok I'll sell you a red brick for $175 and include shipping and PayPal fees | |
| For Those Who Are Unaware of The Cable Company +1 @lalitk +1 @krelldog agree didn't meet my expectations. | |
| Impedance Loading for SS Hyperion Can you guys confirm when you say you are loading your SS cartridges at 47k are you going into a MC input then loading at 47k. I thought most MM sections are all 47k ohms. | |
| Koetsu back...kind of. "brought together the original team of master craftsmen". Brought them back from the dead? Wow.....nice scam by this company, just another money grab. | |
| New buy, no return policy The new speaker dealer did just reach out and offer to bring the new speakers to my house for a demo I really don't feel bad for that dealer you gave them a chance. I bet they saw this thread which is why they changed their tune. Again I know ... | |
| New cartridge vs. Re-tipped You are 100% correct that a retipped Lyra cartridge by SoundSmith most likely will not have the identical sonic sig but that doesn't mean it would be worse. Soundsmith when doing retips has several choices, I know from experience. From 2 I've had ... | |
| New buy, no return policy Good choice. Once you get them in your room let us know your thoughts on the speakers. Enjoy 😉 | |
| New buy, no return policy Curious what are the shipping charges from TMR to and back if needed? Seems if that cost is reasonable then buy from TMR. Or why will your local dealer not bring over his in-store pair to your home for a short demo. If you like them maybe work out... | |
| Looking for a more solid-feeling turntable (and maybe a new preamp) @helomech just an FYI Palmer turntables are no longer in production. Jon Palmer, the founder of Palmer Audio, ceased operations due to personal reasons. I'm sure you can still buy used Palmer tables which should be a good buy. | |
| speaker upgrade from Magico A3 Did you find the SF Serafinos a bit to warm and maybe lacking some detail? If so you might try having a listen to some Franco Serblin speakers. | |
| Clearaudio Ovation vs Kuzma Stabi R Hard to put into words but when I heard the Clearaudio it just didn't have the life or energy that other tables had. No connections to the music for me. Now the Stabi R was just the opposite. It had foot stomping rhythm. Several times I got chills... | |
| Clearaudio Ovation vs Kuzma Stabi R I've only heard Clearaudio tables at shows and while they sounded ok they didn't move me. What I can say without hesitation is whenever I've listened to the Stabi R it has the rhythm and pace that no other table I've heard has. I've heard it with ... | |
| High Performance Moving Iron Cartridge Candidates? I've heard many SoundSmith cartridges and they all are wonderful. The Voice is fabulous and has an output of 2.12mV and if and when it requires retipping the cost is only $300. |
