| The Sacred Ritual of Vinyl: A Return to Mindful Listening So beautifully written. It’s very sad for me to read this because currently I’m not able to get up and down every 20 minutes to change records due to hip surgery and subsequent dislocation of the same hip. I certainly do miss the ritual along wi... | |
| Bent Audioquest Robin Hood banana plugs @stringreen Thanks very much for the info. I guess I won’t go that route. | |
| Oh no, say it ain't so. Yes, I agree with those who say you can be a music lover and an audiophile at the same time. As long as you don’t get on the merry-go-round. | |
| No sound As per another thread I posted concerning appreciation of the music, ironically I’m finding it easier to get into the music now that I’m not fussing over sound staging and other audio niceties. | |
| No sound @cdc Thanks for your interest and comments. Although with the Sys the system sounds very good, I still sense a lack of highs and sound staging which the preamp brings. | |
| No sound Strangely, the SQ with the Sys is improving greatly. I don’t know if it’s breaking in (I didn’t know a switch could break in) or I’m getting used to it. | |
| No sound @cdc Yes it’s amazing. Especially good on LP’s. i still think my original preamp does a little better, on sound staging and highs. But the direct transmission is incredibly clean. | |

| No sound @lanx0003 i have a Conrad-Johnson tube preamp which is out for repair for an extended time. That’s why I got the Sys, so I could listen to music. Of course the tubed CJ is much better, but the Sys is a very good stopgap until I get the CJ back.... | |
| No sound @jetter Yes it is! | |
| No sound Now I find it’s not so primitive. It sounds damn good! | |
| No sound Well, I hooked up the Sys, and lo and behold, I got sound. Of course it’s primitive compared to my CJ preamp but over all, not too bad. Thanks to @jetter for the suggestion. | |
| No sound @jetter Thanks for the reply. Neat looking preamp! | |
| No sound I’ll have to wait 4-6 weeks! for the repair. I already ordered the Schiit Sys but it’s not coming until next Friday. At least I should have some sound. |
