| Back into analog Erm.... each to his own, but I had two SL1210, and I didn't like them. Besides, tinkering around is almost as much fun as listening to music... | |
| Back into analog It might take some time to find nice wood. Anyway, this morning I filled the inner platter with a sheet of wood, and that also improved things a little bit. Here's a pic of an original Thorens TD104, just like mine used to be :)http://upload.talk2... | |
| What do you think of my 25 laws of audio Thanx for the compliment(s) about my system, unfortunately it's not true. And I'm not from the USA, but from the other side of that orther little pool: I'm from Holland.... | |
| What do you think of my 25 laws of audio I know Chief, it's just funny that your approach to audio and mine are totally different, yet we reach for the same aim. My setup consists of a tube preamp and a 2 x 25 watts class A poweramp, with which I'm extremely happy. I don't know which sys... | |
| What do you think of my 25 laws of audio Chief, I especially agree with 10, 12, 13, 14 and 15. And it's a good laugh too. I wouldn't mind you thinking up another 75 rules. Although I shouldn't like your system, since it is opposite to mine, it sounds impressive..... | |
| Best bargain find ever ? This weekend I visited a friend of mine, who proudly told me he bought some 50-something records including some rare Zappa-stuff. "Oh, and by the way, the guy also gave me his turntable. You think it's worth something?"He then showed me a Thorens ... | |
| Musical Fidelity Tuner and Other Qs such as DVD Wow, a Magnum Dynalab..... never heard one, but it seems to be amazing.Anyway, I bought the X-PSU secondhand, and it came with 3 instead of the 4 cables suplied originally, but since I bought it for 70 dollar including the costs of sending it, I d... | |
| Musical Fidelity Tuner and Other Qs such as DVD I can answer two questions. MF produced a matching X-tuner, the X-Plora: http://www.musicalfidelity.com/mf/en/Products/archive.jsp?pid=3282As for the X-Psu, I've bought one for the X-Pre, and it made a big difference (improvement) to the sound. Si... | |
| What was/is the heaviest weight amp you herd/own Just to add to this heavy confusion: my poweramp weighs some 35 kilograms. No idea how many punds or lbs that is, I only know it sounds awesome. Well, to my ears that is...... | |
| Where do you find new music? I just went to a rock festival, with multiple stages. On the smaller stages, I heard some interesting bands (also a lot of bad, would-be rockmusicians), so I'm going to a specialized store to listen if those bands still sound good when I'm sober..... | |
| How many sealed LP's do you have? I have none. I listen to music. | |
| What's the funniest song you ever heard? Sorry for the rough language, but 'F**k her gently' by Tenacious D. makes my day...... | |
| Made me laugh.... Well Plato, not for me, judging from my listening room. Nrchy, how did you make that link clickable? I tried and tried for hours (eehhhhmmmmm...... seconds) and I couldn't get it to work.Anyway, glad you liked it. A Dutch magazine had a serie of a... | |
| I want to hear what you have to say bout my HT Nice system. The 805's are great speakers, but little more low-end wouldn't hurt. Try a B&W PV-1, which sounds great and looks even better: http://www.bwspeakers.com/index.cfm/fuseaction/products.models/Label/PV1 | |
| Does anyone know about Sphinx amplifiers? They are indeed from Holland, and still in business. I always liked their stuff, but couldn't afford it, and now I'm moving in a different direction. Anyway, the distributor in the US is May Audio Marketing, Inc. 2150 Liberty Drive, unit 7 Niagara... |
