| Graham Phantom vs the Graham 2.2 WOW!Great discussion,Thomasheisig.You pretty much nailed it.However,CELLO,now that I've just been hit with 14 inches of snow here in the northeast,do you have any guest rooms? | |
| Graham Phantom vs the Graham 2.2 Thank you,very much,for the fine feedback!I,too,am very interested in both the SCHROEDER and the AIRLINE.Here are my concerns though.As for the Airline,the feedback I've been getting from the preliminary press reports,as well as from my own audio ... | |
| Graham 2.2 tonearm cables I and a friend,both,upgraded our ic-30's to ic-70,at the same time.The difference was a clearly dramatic improvement in overall performance.As for the slight "thinning"that some may have experienced from this,I would bet that the improved resoluti... | |
| Infinity IRS BETA Servo with Balanced Pre/Amps Rwd,That is a really nice offer,and I'm sure it would be a great listening session.I get the impression you are a thoughtful, decent person.I may have to take you up on that offer after we get out of the deep freeze.Maybe I could get together with... | |
| Krell amps and Tube Preamps - enemies? This ongoing subject of tubes vs solid state is so stupid as to be almost laughable.It is the component matching(impedences,capacitance etc.)within our set-ups that determine how effective our stuff is in reproducing a musical signal.That goes alo... | |
| Infinity IRS BETA Servo with Balanced Pre/Amps Truthfully I'm happy being on the edge of the N.Y. inner circle.I like my privacy,and find too many EXPERTS that are always preaching to me,as to what to upgrade to or how loud to listen.I get a headache very easily from crappy sound at high volum... | |
| Attn Vinyl lovers - what CD Player do you use? Although I love my vinyl,I wanted to experience music I could no longer purchase unless it was on cd.I wanted a unit that could hold up over the years,was built well,sounded very good,and had a good pedigree.I bought a Levinson 390s and am extreme... | |
| Pass Labs versus Jeff Rowland, Audio Research I have a Rowland 2 chasis version of the model 8t.Although it is human nature for all of us to justify our own equipment,let me tell you a bit about my experience.I have owned,happily, CJ tube Equip as well as Audio research.I try to hear all curr... | |
| Why Linear Tracking never took off? Rushton,I just read the thread(review info,by Walker)and you may have struck on the fact that perhaps some cartridges could not suffer by adding a bit of fluid to the arm.His info does make sense and I'm always open to new ideas(not that this one ... | |
| Why Linear Tracking never took off? Rushton,good point!To me though,I've spent too much time rationalizing the loss of AIR, brought about by damping the arm,to be to be anything other than a masking out of musical information.That is not to say that in the case of really crappy reco... | |
| Infinity IRS BETA Servo with Balanced Pre/Amps I moved to NJ some years ago.If you know Dave Nemzer or ED Maron,as well as the GREAT MARKS we may have met.Also,do you know REINA,as he has a bunch of pals,some of which I've met. | |
| Why Linear Tracking never took off? With regards to the Rockport arm,I wasn't aware it is marketed as a stand alone unit any longer,but, it obviously looks like a fine design.I had heard one on an early generation Rockport,some years back,but lacked the system intimacy,or knowledge,... | |
| Infinity IRS BETA Servo with Balanced Pre/Amps Please excuse me.I meant jonathan valin.Scull really seemed like a genuine person,sadly missed by me at least! | |
| Why Linear Tracking never took off? If you choose a cartridge carefully ,there is no way "damping"is an advantage.I have had this proven to me on numerous occassions and have finally caved in on this.By the way,Mikelavigne,I also had a room built (dedicated)with dedicated heat and a... | |
| Infinity IRS BETA Servo with Balanced Pre/Amps He'd kill me if I said so,but,"He really liked the Shaded Dog stuff".Also his set-up of RS-1b's are driven by really old Krell bass amps,with a C.J. Premier 8 on top.The pre is an ART with the C.J. phonostage,andVPI TNT with(the piece de resistenc... |
