| The Sutherland Ph. D. vs ARC Ph-3 Xagwell makes a valid point regarding trying different NOS tubes.These can have a profound effect on perceived performance.I've gone through a vast majority of these and found the Amperex/Siemens/Ediswans to be the best.NOS tubes can be pricey,but... | |
| Ideal TT & Arm for the following top cartridges... I really think the Brinkman LaGrange/with Brinkman's own arm is a major player,if it can be found at a reasonable price.List is a bit over what you want to spend,yet there is frequently some interesting pricing found,if you search a bit. This comb... | |
| To Plug Power Amps Direct in to Wall or Not ?? My friend gets a clear improvement running his Rowland 8t into a PS audio ultimate outlet.We have tried a half dozen different type of conditioning products,as well as straight into wall,yet the UO's are a clear improvement.BTW,he doesn't have ded... | |
| Ideas for a cartridge for a Breuer 8A tonearm Raul,I had the MDC-800 years ago.It was a fabulous arm!Personally I liked it better than the two SME-V's I had,afterwards. Best! | |
| Lamm ML1.1 & ML 2.1 James,I have an Avalon Ascent mk-2,and am running one Rel Stentor,coming in at 25hz.It did take a long time,but they integrate absolutely perfectly.NO seams!As to your room,and mini issue.Yes,a small floorstander,like a Kharma 3.2,or possibly a Ve... | |
| What is a better value speaker -- Kharma 3.2FE at The little 3.2's(I don't own a Kharma,or "MTV" Wilson)are overpriced,and indispensible,when communicating music.They are a truly stunning design,without the sub(which might make some happy,but steps on the magic)!You really have to dismiss notions... | |
| $2k for new Cartridge Benz LP or...... Oldvinyl,could you please elaborate on your experiences between the different phono cables you've tried,and why you settled on the Nordost.Also,did you ever try the Purist Venustas,or have a mutual friend who may own it. Thanks in advance! | |
| What cartridge?? Lyra, Dyno etc... Sorry Dan,I jumped the gun!My pals warn me to shut up,as they are NOW reloading and considering a mass WINDS guage purchase,for all of us.Well the little one we both see on Audiogon still looks like a good buy! Ngarsh,you are clearly moving toward... | |
| $2k for new Cartridge Benz LP or...... All of the potential choices,here are really quite valid,but Albert makes a salient point,regarding Koetsus.I had about ten years of music life,with Koetsus.They really can become addictive,and with good reason.Once you live with them(though there... | |
| Shelter and Triplanar matching ? Very interesting thread,and responses,btw.Two years ago,while swimming off the Long Island Sound(near Sea Cliff),and in my "water proof tuxedo"(God I love you Raul)I was aware that if I wanted to enhance my phono performance it was going to cost m... | |
| What cartridge?? Lyra, Dyno etc... Actually,Dan,Bob gave such a compelling argument about downforce changing from day to day,that I don't even know if I'll bother comparing to my friend's Winds guage.I simply want a baseline for my being able to fotz around,a bit, to get the sound ... | |
| How to properly set VTF?? After pondering some of these excellent responses,Bob's really puts the "Kabbash" on anyone using an arm with antiskate.Possibly! Maybe this is one reason Harry Weissfeld,of VPI does not employ an antiskate setting on his unipivots. This does seem... | |
| ASR Basis Exclusive and WHICH MC cartridge?? BTW-I did list the site,but it was edited out.I can understand why!best of luck. |
