| Analogue question If your new location setup puts the components closer to your WIFI router or extender, your components may pick up the noise from it. This happened to me twice in both of my systems. Simply unplug or move your router/extender further away from y... | |
| Phono stage hum - Rega Aria Is your WIFI router or booster close to your components? If so, unplug it and see if the hum goes away. I had an issue with a WIFI extender that was too close to my vacuum tube preamp. I've also had problems with WIFI boosters that use the elec... | |
| Phonostage for Rega P10 I have the Rega P10 with Apheta 3 cartridge. I’m using it with a Luxman EQ-500 vacuum tube phonostage and I love it. I replaced the stock tubes with some NOS Brimars and current production Gold Lions. It sounds great and it offers a lot of flex... | |
| Rega P10 v Complete rebuild Garrard 401! I’m going to buck the trend here and recommend the P10. I have 2 high end systems in my home and turntables in both. My main system has Harbeth M40.1 speakers and a fully upgraded Linn LP12 with Radikal power supply, Keel subchassis, Ekos SE arm... | |
| Where in the US to send my Linn Sondek LP12. Did Thomas O’Keefe leave Overture Audio? If so, what is his new contact information? Thanks | |
| When people upgrade from Thiel I owned the CS6 for about 10 years and when I decided I wanted a different sound, I bought the Harbeth M40.1. I've had my 40.1 speakers for over 4 years and I have no desire to change. | |
| Harbeth Love and your experiences I had the SLH5 for about 3-4 years and it was very good. I have a large living room for my listening room and I felt the M40.1 would be better so I upgraded to them. The 40.1 turned out to be a big upgrade in every way. I've had my 40.1s for ne... | |
| Rega RB2000 - Bearing Play I have the RP10/RB2000. I don't have any issues with excessive bearing play. | |
| Recommendations for rolling tubes on Luxman SQ-N10? The Luxman SQ-N10 is a nice little integrated amp. I owned one for about 2-3 years but I sold it 4 years ago. I was using it for a headphone amp and it was excellent for that use. I rolled tubes but it's been to long for me to remember exactly ... | |
| Cartridge for Rega Planar 3? I recommend the Rega Exact because it's a good all around performer that is made to match up well with Rega tables and arms. I have a Rega RP10 and Rega Apheta 2 MC cartridge and the match is excellent. IMO, when you go with a non-Rega cartridge... | |
| Upgrade Linn LP 12 or buy new table Agree with daveyf, the LP12s of 20-40 years ago don't compare with a full upgraded LP12. A LP12 with the Radikal power supply, Keel subchassis, Ekos SE tonearm and Akiva MC cartridge like I have is on a completely higher level than the LP12s of t... | |
| Speakers to hang on to for LIFE Harbeth M40.1. This speaker makes music listening enjoyable day in day out. | |
| Can headphones ever be as good as high end stereo? In my opinion, I would advise against selling off your speaker system to buy a state of the art headphone system. I have some of the best headphones made today (Stax SR009, Audeze LCD X, HiFiMan HE6, LA7000 and a modified AKG 340) and I enjoy them... | |
| Turntable Bearings Try posting your question on the Linn LP12 forum on the Linn site. Several LP12 experts frequent that forum and you're more likely to get answers. | |
| Linn Sondek LP12 impressions I've owned my 25 year anniversary LP12 for almost 17 years. Originally it had the shoe box Lingo power supply, Cirkus bearing, and Ekos arm. Two years ago I upgraded it to the Radikal power supply, Ekos SE arm, Keel sub chassis and Akiva MC cartri... |
