Rega P10 v Complete rebuild Garrard 401! @gunners01 I just noticed talk about the 301 in Vancouver. The owner is a good friend of mine named Sam. He replaced it with a nauntais 301 fully done out with the big power supply. He also had a fr64s he mentioned maybe selling. You could maybe ... | |
Rega P10 v Complete rebuild Garrard 401! I own a 301 grease in woodsong plinth, 2 emt direct drives, and kuzma reference. Enjoy them all. If i was forced to pick just one it would be the 301. Im not familiar with the p10 but from what I've seen in the past from Rega you can do much bette... | |
How good is the Micro Seiki DDX-1000 Direct Drive turntable ? Yes. The 927and 950 are top. 927 is extremely expensive. For idler it would be the 930. The 950 is the top direct drive but many find it too large. Ive discussed emt’s with Steve Dobbins. He’s used them all. He told me he thought the 950 was a lit... | |
Help with cartridge @chakster Do you still have your denon? Did you try it in your ikeda arm. I never thought it was all that great until i tried it in my ikeda arm and it is quite musical. And does have a very appealing sound. In other arms I found it to sound les... | |

How good is the Micro Seiki DDX-1000 Direct Drive turntable ? @chakster Do you prefer the performance of the luxman to your sp10 mk 2? Or just the convenience of use? | |
Cartridge recomendation for Garard 301 and Ikeda IT-345CRI The above recommendations are good. Depends on your budget. If your looking for a more affordable option, my Ortofon royal N spu sounds really good on my Ikeda it407. | |
Review: EXACTPOWER EP15A Tweak I tried this unit in my system many years ago. It along with the ps audio I found would maybe be good if your power was really bad. For me both of these slowed the musicality of the music and restricted dynamics.. Both very restricting vs straight... | |
Why do my rolling stones albums sound bad? I also agree about Emotional Rescue. Best sounding Stones album I think. And yes. very underrated. Listening on a good system to Ron Wood and Richard’s guitar intertwine together on that record is awesome. Yes. I’m a guitar player. On a good syst... | |

Reasonable moving coil cartridge About the denon mc. It only sounds good in an expensive heavy arm. Imo. So whats the point. | |
Reasonable moving coil cartridge Agree with chakster. Don't bother with a cheap mc cartridge. In your price range mm is better performance. Yes vintage is best but if that’s not for you just buy new. Still better to do some research and buy vintage. Even in a higher budget, many... | |
How will the COVID-19 pandemic affect sites like Audiogon? @inna Am I hearing you correctly? Is this a bad joke?Or are you criticizing your country and warning us that your the enemy?
