| Zesto vs K & K phono stages Shakey & JohnI got my Maxxed Out phono stage a week before Thanksgiving 2015. It replaces an ARC PH3-SE with a Great Northern Sound reference mod. I liked it a lot.Owned it for 13 years. I have been in this hobby for about 36 years. The system... | |
| soundsmith work on Benz or Maestro v2 Thanks for the reply guys. Wish I had seen them about 7 months sooner. I tried to contact Soundsmith by phone and Email but without success.That was a couple of years ago. Since then Benz has restructured the company and is making cartridges again... | |
| Axpona 2015. Are any of you guys going? My wife and I will also be going again and hope to see you. We have been to RMAF once. Unfortunately I got sick but what I saw and experienced was good and hope some day to go again. I live in Wisconsin so that makes Axpona easier to attend plus A... | |
| Rowland service A big thanks to Guidocorona for helping get in contact with JRDG. Thank you to all the posters for your input and support. A little background on what happened and the need to send it to JRDG. My friend is getting out of the hobby. Several pieces ... | |
| Are there other Artisan Fidelity TT owners aorund? Thanks Audiofun. I forgot to mention one other thing that impressed me about the tt. The on and off switch. It does not feel like a cheap switch. It has an usually solid feel to it. Chris recommended The Panzerholz plinth if I wanted the ultimate.... | |
| Are there other Artisan Fidelity TT owners aorund? I picked up my Achatese Lenco November 2 2013. Like you I had some fear after ordering it. My over 30 year old Oracle Alexandria with Morch DP-6 arm was getting old and I had to make a change. The rest of the system had been updated over the past ... | |
| Review: Dahlquist DQ-10 Speaker Thanks to the three previous posters. I was just checking this thread out of curiosity, it has been a while. Fhet your comment about the Magnepan Tympani I can relate to. I had DQ-10s sold them bought Tympani 1Ds but never got as happy with them a... | |
| Thor websight Thanks for the info. Anybody know of anyone that modifies Audio Research components? Steve Huntley of Great Northern Sound went out of business a couple years ago. Sorry to see such dedicated company's going out of business. | |
| Isolation transformer - getting full, rated kva I asked the electrician here at work. The wattage does not change when voltage is halved or doubled. the amps would halve or double. I think it would be a good idea to get an owners manual and make sure it is wired correctly. My owner manual does ... | |
| Isolation transformer - getting full, rated kva Do you have the owners material? I have the Topaz 7,200 watt step down transformer. I will check the owner material for it. I also have it grounded separately with a separate sub panel. It definently reduces the noise. Blacker back ground. Better ... | |
| McCormack .5 with Vandersteen 2CI Thank you very much. SMC mods are great. Just needed to know about the .5 before I go any further on this co workers system. $800 is his budget for an amp. | |
| Review: TRL, Inc. Dude & Samson Tube preamp I agree with Agear. Where I use to live it was a dedicated line but from the main breaker box. Where I'm at now I have a 220 volt line from the main breaker box with out a ground going to a step down isolation tranformer which feeds a 60 amp break... | |
| Review: TRL, Inc. Dude & Samson Tube preamp Thanks for your review. Very interesting but what I am especially interested in knowing more about your system is the Salk HT2TLs. Did you have special capacitors installed? Any other options? You obviously like your system which includes your spe... | |
| McCormack 125 or a McIntosh SS amp I am not familiar with Mcintosh. But I can tell you an SMC upgrade on the McCormack DNA- 125 is hard to beat the Patinum level would be very hard to beat. The parts quality SMC uses is up there with the finest available. Some say that but SMC real... | |
| ear care Thanks Elevick I will bring that up to the hearing specialist when I see him. |
