revision of Traveler posted on VPI's site The mat definitely looks different. Does the platter look not as thick? The feet are very different. I was told by VPI that the new feet are adjustable and the motor / pulley change was around having a universal switching power supply from VPI.My ... | |
1/2 speed cutting not usually so good? I learned something | |
Low mass tonearm needs a high compliance cartridge I like the ortofon mc-3 turbo on mine. Matches up very nicely | |
Weakest Link? Your honest opinions. Check the fuse box and see which breaker turns off your stereo. Recommend the dedicated line for cleaner power since there would be only stereo components on it plus you could then ditch the extension cord.Before you buy tubes, especially in the p... | |
Weakest Link? Your honest opinions. I'd ask your landlord to get permission to put a dedicated 20amp line in if it is minimal work for an electrician. I know older places can be tricky, especially with grounds. Hopefully you can get one in without major work. The Porter Ports are go... | |
Weakest Link? Your honest opinions. Try the Mogami cable i mentioned above with the neutrk golds for $25 a pair. U will like them and it is what the music studios use. | |
Help With System hum, Please try a Jasmine LP2 mkII? | |
Weakest Link? Your honest opinions. And one more note about power conditioners. I've tried a PS Audio UPC-200 and currently have a basic Furman M-8x2 Merit X series. Both are good, but both reduced the fidelity of my power amp (especially the highs) when I had that component plugged... | |
Weakest Link? Your honest opinions. Hit post a little too soon. The reason why I mention going solid state in the phono stage is that I had tubes also for that component and while the Pro-ject phono tube box II was good, the Jasmine was better, warmer (dare I say more tube like), re... | |
Weakest Link? Your honest opinions. I've jumped off the cable dance train by going to Mogami RCA (2549) and speaker wire (2921). I use the Neutrik Pro-Fi RCA connectors and Audioquest BFAs to terminate the speaker wire in a biwire config. I really like the transparent sound of these... | |
VPI Traveler vs Pro-ject Xpression III? @Stevecham: What comparisons of VPI to other tables have you made? I'm asking because I am puzzled and curious to what I heard with the Traveler in the demo room vs what I hear in my system at home with my Xpression III. I also heard the same PRAT... | |
VPI Traveler vs Pro-ject Xpression III? Pace Rhythm and Tempo. The Pro-ject and Rega tables are known for this and others... | |
VPI traveller vs Project rm5.1 vs second hand VPI? I really like my Tekton 6.5t monitors (sound best with rigid stands) from tekton for $600. That way you can put more money into your (integrated) amp (exposure, audio refinement - both used?) and also more money into a phono stage (love my Jasmine... | |
AFFORDABLE HIGH VFM RACKS - Opinions Please... Are the VTI racks any good? | |
has anyone had any problems w/ Jasmine phono LP2.0 Did you try another phono stage? Might be good to have a backup. |
