Einstein The Tube vs Audio Reaserch REF5
I now own The Tube MkII. I have no idea that there is a MKIII version. Anyway the Einstein has bass that was prodigious. Much better than the Nagra PLL, First Sound, Ayre K1xe and K5xe I once own. It really shines especially on acoustic instrument... 
Parasound JC-1- Audio signal turn-on function
Yes, I have set this at 3 o'clock position. Guess using an external 12V auto-trigger is the way to go.... 
Parasound JC-1- Audio signal turn-on function
Bringing this old thread back - seems that my JC1 also turns off after more than 30 min. This seems very far off from the "about 5 min" as claimed in the literature. Any one else have the same problem? 
Best Song Intro
I will always love you - Very bold way to start off a song. I was shocked when I first heard it on the radio when it was released. 
Stands for Joseph Audio Pulsars
I consulted Jeff recently on this and he mentioned that a 24" stand is required for the Pulsar.. Some experimentation is needed though.

What I really like - Speakers with their front setups - Vivid K1 (I can stay in this room forever), YG Anat, Brodman, Joseph Audio new Pearl, PMC monitors and Sonus Faber Vorere. Hope I got their spelling right. Really disappointed that some brand...

EAR 324 vs Einstein The Turntable Choice

EAR 324 vs Einstein The Turntable Choice
Wow I didn't expect the thread to be alive after 2 years. And yes, I have settled with the Einstein. Thanks for the inputs! 
Ayre DPS Bauer vs Artemis Labs
I would like to get the Ayre PS but I don't think that my current DPS2 PS can be traded in for it - Different distributors... BTW, after having the DPS, I now know how good the Nottingham Hyperspace is now. Yes, the DPS is better but you wouldn't ... 
Ayre DPS Bauer vs Artemis Labs
Thanks for the comments. Just gotten a DPS 2 but not the Ayre PS. 
Avalon Acoustics vs Wilson Audio
Avalon Indra - Fell in love with it immediately with jazz vocals. When I popped in The Prodigy.... That love dissipated. Where's the speed and pace?Wilson Sasha - Very involving piece. Seems to sound very humanly - like everything comes with an ex... 
VPI Turntable Upgrade
