| Jazz for aficionados @jafant +1 on Ralph Towner. Who of course reminds me of my love for Oregon and the Paul winter consort. Simply beautiful music throughout | |
| Jazz for aficionados I am a mildly enthusiastic fan of the Venus label sound and artists, particularly the Steve Kuhn Trio. However I was listening to some of Eddie higgins's work the other day and all of a sudden it occurred to me that this could just very easily be ... | |
| White debris on front of cartridge I don't think so. Others have reported similar issues. I think it's more of an artifact of the geometry of the stylus and the tip. Also, I've gone away from using an after clean of distilled water after I use the VPI vacuum so maybe I'll start doi... | |
| Do you have a speaker that’s not a big name maker but punches above its weight? Why? @bassdude the Eureka retails for $12000. I'm not sure what price point ip's punching above. | |
| I'm a little perplexed/surprised by TMR and who sells to them..... Agreed. many of their products also have a make an offer option. And they will entertain offers and bargain with you. And, as @mapman pointed out, it’s a guaranteed and risk free transaction. | |
| Do you have a speaker that’s not a big name maker but punches above its weight? Why? @mysteriousmrm +1 on Spatial. My M3 Turbos were fantastic until I just saw them for financial reasons period but they are resolving while not being distant at all. really convinced me of how good open baffles could be. | |
| White debris on front of cartridge @vinylvin good point! | |
| White debris on front of cartridge Thanks all. I do use my VPI 16.5 to clean my records but I haven't looked for a correlation between recently cleaned and older vinyl and that debris accumulation. I'll keep my eye out on that. | |
| Can AI Build a speaker? My first down the rabbit hole question would be how to determine the crossover frequency? If you gave the AI your cabinet dimensions or baffle dimensions and the drivers you were using, could spit out a list of crossover components? | |
| Do you have a speaker that’s not a big name maker but punches above its weight? Why? @bassbuyer +1 on Philharmonic. Also, Decware. Beautifully tuned speakers that are worth the wait. | |
| DIY Speaker Kits, a good idea? I started down this road/hobby last year, initially with a Parts Express kit and now having just finished my own design based off a Soundblab YouTube tutorial. As @pindac @koestner point out, there are inherent learning curves and initial inve... | |
| does it need to be complicated @mdalton Good point. I was holding back from a separate streamer as the OP didn't seem to be into that. However, I can +1 on the Yamaha and Wiim combo! | |
| does it need to be complicated Right on. It sounds like you're looking for One Integrated to Bind Them All. At your price point here're a few suggestions: 1. Cambridge Audio Evo 150 (~$3300) 2. NAD Masters M10 V3 (~$3000) 3. NAD C389 BluOS (~2500) Each of these offers both ... | |
| Eyes open or closed? It depends on who I'm with and what I think they'll look like in the morning. | |
| Help deciding between two speakers. Your Project puts out more than enough power for either option. But as @yogiboy suggests, the Infinitys may need more than just re-foaming; their caps may need replacing as well and the wiring is probably due for replacement. They spec at 89db (wh... |
