| BEST TONEARM CABLE PURIST VENUSTUS GRAHAM IC 70 BTW-I too had the original IC-30.My friend did,as well.When we both moved to the IC-70,there was NO contest.The IC-70,here,was a clear winner.Please don't think I'm going on some IC-70 "binge".I would love to move to a possibly better link,but I h... | |
| BEST TONEARM CABLE PURIST VENUSTUS GRAHAM IC 70 I don't think I originally made myself clear.Instead of the straight line connector,originally used on the Venustas,Jim used the Cardas "right angle" connector instead.However due to the pin positioning in the bottom 2.2 arm block this basically r... | |
| BEST TONEARM CABLE PURIST VENUSTUS GRAHAM IC 70 Oh,I forgot to mention what could probably be a salient point.My friend,Sid,who has WAY more experience,and knowledge than anyone I've ever met,in this hobby,brought up the point that when there is less bass present,there is always the perception ... | |
| BEST TONEARM CABLE PURIST VENUSTUS GRAHAM IC 70 Nsgarsh,yes it was broken in.Also,the first comparison was with no changes,for voicing.Also,it was Jim Aud who added the right angle connector,so I assume he knew what he was doing.Do you still feel that I would benefit by not having this connecti... | |
| BEST TONEARM CABLE PURIST VENUSTUS GRAHAM IC 70 Nsgarch,well we had the comparison yesterday.Yes the Venustas had a darker,more silken presentation.However the IC-70 had a more dynamic presentation,with fuller bass.All at first blush. The arm was the Graham 2.2.What we did(three experienced aud... | |
| Basis Vector 3 vs. Schröder, Triplanar, Graham Hi Thomas.I don't disagree with the Mfgr advertising aspect of your comments,yet that can't be helped,and there are those who will be able to determine when advertisors are using these forums.Trust me,I don't want to get into anymore areas where I... | |
| Basis Vector 3 vs. Schröder, Triplanar, Graham Now that I'm beginning to get up enough nerve to begin posting again(thanks for the E-mail,Raul),I'd like to add two points,which may,or may not be found interesting.Firstly,I have found that the "IC-70" interconnect IS quite influenced by cable d... | |
| BEST TONEARM CABLE PURIST VENUSTUS GRAHAM IC 70 Nsgarsh,as a very good friend of EBM,and having almost the exact set-up as him,except speakers,I'll have the good fortune to compare the Venustas Phono link to the IC-70.This in about two weeks,as he HAS ordered the Venustas.I'm intimately familia... | |
| Basis Vector 3 vs. Schröder, Triplanar, Graham Well for what it is worth I have to break my promised silence,here,in defense of CELLO,and his supposed "preferences"for any particular product (something which to even hint at,is absurd,if you've met him)!I base these comments on what is in his s... | |
| ZYX Universe, Dynavector XV-1s, vdH Colibri, ?? I think my "posting mentality" has worn out my welcome.In looking back at my threads, my intent was to be "sort of" the opposite of my rather conservative lifestyle.I was trying(unsuccessfully)to be "provocative",NOT downright nasty!!I thought it ... | |
| ZYX Universe, Dynavector XV-1s, vdH Colibri, ?? Larry,I'm still a nice guy!Though at your behest,I'll give it a break. Btw-I really don't see where I was actually rude or abrasive,in these posts,as you claim.Maybe that is perceived by some,who I addressed,but I can't control that.Loyalyies usua... | |
| ZYX Universe, Dynavector XV-1s, vdH Colibri, ?? Doug,you mean optimized with your aid?You own a Tri,and you feel confident you can be astute about the fine details of the fluid?I rest my case!!BTW-and I do understand how you can feel you knew what you were up against with the fluid,so I'm reall... | |
| ZYX Universe, Dynavector XV-1s, vdH Colibri, ?? Teres,you have a nice table,btw.--As to set up of the 2.2,it could not possibly have been correct,even discounting the anti skate issue,as I was told that the "critical fluid adjustments" were done "after" the seven man session.Sorry!Besides,the i... | |
| Has any one heard Magico Speakers? To me,on paper,this looks like a real contender to be taken very seriously.I did see the designer's profile,and he looks to be highly trained,and capable. I'm willing to bet that this two way becomes very well known,as opposed to well owned(due to... | |
| ZYX Universe, Dynavector XV-1s, vdH Colibri, ?? Well,you'll be happy to know that I'm about played out,on this subject.That being said,I simply DON'T believe the original comparisons were accurate!Of course any parties benefiting from the skewed findings are free to disagree.This does not mean,... |
