| VPI Periphery Ring / Center Weight I agree with Narrod. I have heard a sonic benefit from every LP by using the periphery ring. It gives more "weight" to the music. I use it on all LP's. I like my BDR record clamp much better than the VPI center weight though. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century The following speakers impressed me. The Audiokinesis Dream Maker at $9000 a pair was very nice, but the Jazz Module at $4500 a pair seemed like a great buy.The Jazz Module has 92db efficiency, 32Hz to 17.5 kHz and is tube friendly. The Studio Ele... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century I think the real highlight for me was getting to meet so many people in the industry. I met Thom Makrus of Galibier Turntables. He invited me up to his listening room on Saturday night along with a few other people and we spun LP's from 7:30 to 10... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century I made my reservations for the RMAF next year. We should make a Supratek badge to wear so we recognize each other at the fest. Maybe we can get Mick to host a private listening session in his Supratek room after the show closes for the day on Frid... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Well gang, I have to say that I am surprised at the lack of response to my announcement about Mick telling me he will be at the 2008 RMAF. I would have thought that many of you would like to have a chance to meet Mick in person, but it looks like ... | |
| Cincinnati, OH, any audiophiles? Hi Bartleby57,Where do you live in Anderson? I work down there. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century I have BIG news for all Supratek owners. I spoke with Mick Maloney after returning from the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest. Mick told me that he will be attending the RMAF next year as an exibitor! He will have a full room of Supratek amps and preamps.... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century The Audio fest was fantastic! I can't wait to go again next year. I have never seen so much audio equipment in one place. All the exhibitor's were very friendly and accommodating. I was asked if I had music that I wanted to hear in every room I we... | |
| Best sound at RMAF This was my first RMAF, and I am already looking forward to next year. I agree that show conditions limit what the equipment is truly capable of, but don't let that stop you from going. I had a blast! I was drawn more toward rooms that had real wo... | |
| Did You Have Fun At RMAF? Thank Al&Marjorie Thanks for a great time Al And Marjorie! You guys worked really hard just so us audiofools could have the time of our lives, and boy did we. I was like a kid in a candy store. I can't wait for next year! | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Hi Tvad,If you go with another cartridge, I would get a ZYX .24mv cartridge. I believe they make .24mv in all of their cartridges. I have the Yatra and it is a beautiful match to the Cortese. I do have the gain controls and I have them set to high... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Hi Baranyi,I hope to catch you at the show.Tom | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century I don't know if any of you have heard of Podium Speakers, but Mick seems to think they may be the perfect speaker for the Supratek amps and preamps. He has a pair on their way to him now. he told me he would send me his impressions of them. If you... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century I received an e-mail from a fellow Supratek owner today. He is going to the RMAF. If any other Supratek owners are going, please let me know. It would be great if we could get together to meet each other in person. | |
| is RMAF worth a trip Essentialaudio is correct, sorry. |
