| I'll welcome myself back after a brief hiatus @quickjack1234 , Thanks for the long and detailed explanation. I'm ahead of you however. I have a cochlear implant for my SSHL (single sided hearing loss). I'm not happy with the results, I think a BAHA would have been better for me. My implant s... | |
| Integrated Tube Amp approx. $2,500 Need an update. | |
| Bluesound mode not really cutting it I'd probably toss the Mac152 and get a tube amp. | |
| ??? How Much Would You Spend ??? Amp, around 5K plus another 5K for a preamp. Already have the speakers and amps in my mind. | |
| Preamp upgrade What AR preamps did you own? Sorry, I inherited them from my brother and didn't keep them long enough to remember the models. | |
| Cornwall IVs with Yamaha a-s1200 I'd pair up with a nice Prima Luna integrated. | |
| Preamp upgrade I kept my Cary SLP98-F1 and sold my two AR preamps. | |
| Turntable Hum And Channel Drop Got to be the wiring. | |
| Music server recommendations needed. I'm new to streaming but I think it's the way to go. I still play my CDs but spend more time streaming. | |
| **Your Recommendations**Pathos "Inpol Remix Mk.II"**25wpc.@8 Ohms** Triangle Signature Theta, exactly what you are looking for. | |
| Do Harbeth speakers really need a 4000 damping factor? All competently designed amps of low noise and distortion will sound alike. Is that you Mr Hirsch? | |

| The Shure V15 V with a Jico SAS/B stylus VS The Soundsmith Hyperion MR and Lyra Atlas SL I also hate to tell you this, but the Infinity Black Widow was way too lite for it. I tracked it at 2.5 grams, had no trouble with it. It played warped records well. | |
| The Shure V15 V with a Jico SAS/B stylus VS The Soundsmith Hyperion MR and Lyra Atlas SL @russ69 I'm talking back in 1964 when the V15 was released. It had very little if any serious competition at the time. Your title says Shure V15 V. That was released in 1984. Not sure what a V15 sounded like in 1964 I was only 10 years old. I ... | |
| The Shure V15 V with a Jico SAS/B stylus VS The Soundsmith Hyperion MR and Lyra Atlas SL In its day the Shure V15 was just an average cartridge. Many better cartridges were available. Dynavector and Grado come to mind. |
