| MC cartridge for Clearaudio Concept 1600$ I wouldn't say that it has a sound signature. It's not overly warm, bright, etc. I switched back and forth between vinyl and streaming and I couldn't find much difference. I think my dac and streamer are pretty good. I don't think you'd be di... | |
| MC cartridge for Clearaudio Concept 1600$ I have a Hana ML on a Marantz TT-15S1 (made by Clearaudio). Sutherland TZ Vibe phono stage. It sounds great. I recently purchased Kacey Musgrave's Deeper Well on vinyl just to see how it sounds. I thought I would prefer streaming over vinyl, bu... | |
| Looking for a narrow baffle small footprint speaker Von Schweikert Endeavor RE (walnut) or Endeavor SE (painted). I have the Endeavor RE. | |
| Stand Mount Speakers for Classic Rock that sound alive at lower volumes ? I helped my son set up a stereo in his bedroom. We found that Wharfedale Diamond 225 are pretty darn good if used with a subwoofer. I originally bought some Monitor Audio and they were too bright. I recently found a used pair of Wharfedale Diamo... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Kacey Musgraves - Deeper Well. First album I've bought (or played) in months. Excellent album. | |
| Tube Amp or Tube Pre Amp I've never owned a tube amp, but I've had good success with solid state amplifiers and tube preamps. Coda amplifier with conrad-johnson preamps, and now a Coda amp with a Linear Tube Audio Microzotl preamp. The quantity of tubes in some tube amp... | |
| Recommended tubes for LTA Preamp My favorite are NOS Telefunken ECC801S diamond bottom made in Germany. I also like NOS Siemens ECC801S. The Telefunken are pretty pricey. I like the Brimar Yellow T 6060 12AT7. They have them in stock at The Tube Store. The Brimar are warmer an... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Dawes - Oh Brother. Found them on Qobuz tonight. I'm liking it. | |
| Fun read... I don't respect authors that write articles that ridicule certain hobbyist groups, but you won't find me publishing articles about such authors. I don't know why audiophiles draw so much attention from dicks like that. | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Riverside 20 - Volume 1, The Shorts. | |
| Streamer for LTA Aero You won't be disappointed with the Zen. I'm very happy with mine. | |
| Sutherland Dos Locos Dual Mono Phonostages I haven't heard the Dos Locos, but I suspect it will be excellent. I went from a KC Vibe to a TZ Vibe and it was a noticeable improvement. I'm using a Hana ML moving coil cartridge. | |
| New Speakers under consideration - but I’m afraid Good luck with your demos. Hopefully, there are some good options that you can audition in a proper setup. When I got into this crazy hobby, there was a dealer with lots of options in every budget category. I didn't have a lot of money at the tim... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Kacey Musgraves - Lonely Millionaire from the album Deeper Well. | |
| For Gustard R26...which bang for the buck: DDC or LHY OCK clock? Well, I answered my own question. I turned the DSD Direct on and felt that the sound was better. It sounds really good. To confirm, I flipped it on and off with my remote. I have the benefit of being old, so I couldn't remember what setting it... |
