A turntable that plays all types of music well Ridiculous question. I like @millercarbon's comment....but he forgot that you have to adjust the VTA when you change cartridges.....and don't forget to clean the record for an hour on your Degritter. | |
Turntable Decision Has anyone heard the new entry level SME? SME seems to be the holy grail for a lot of vinylistas. | |
Porsche @millercarbon - you have your purists and then you have your track junkies and all their exhausts, suspension and engine mods. The thing is, everyone is interested in all of the models and years (except SUVs) and appreciates the differences and e... | |
Porsche I was just at a local PCA Wash 'n Shine event on Tuesday night at a nice local winery and we had a huge turnout. Bigger than I can ever remember for this event, and it wasn't even in a good Spring month where we can get lots of daylight - couldn't... | |
Boy, Oh Boy! Towshend! I don’t have First Circle. Not sure why I never heard much about it. Sounds like you’d recommend I get that before Side eye NYC. Now let’s see how hard it is to find it on new vinyl. | |
Boy, Oh Boy! Towshend! Hey @benzman - big Pat Metheny fan. How do you rate this album's content, not just SQ? I have so many of his albums that some of them are pretty similar to prior releases. For example, I have the From This Place recent album which I bought because... | |
Porsche Interesting that KEF is the only manufacturer to advertise in Porsche's club magazine. I learned of a new dealer I had never heard of in 40 yers in the local market. I ended up buying a pair of speakers from him.I guess advertising works sometimes... | |
Record Cleaning Machines Nice clip MC, as usual you are always spot on with the hilarious exaggerations from movies or TV shows.@oldaudiiophile - I didn’t imply that the fan would hurt anything. I was just saying that if you don’t ever wet the record, you wouldn’t need a ... | |
PrimaLuna Evo 200 underwhelming You can get a great sounding integrated SS. It isn’t the technology, it is the actual make and model design and execution. You can make generalizations that tubes sound better, but it is not true in all cases, and this is even more apparent on low... | |
Bad recordings and high end audio The best dealers are the ones who can get pretty much anything. They may lean to the more expensive items since they make a % of the sale. But they can lay out all the options.As far as MC goes, that's fine for him. I prefer to buy from someone I ... | |
Record Cleaning Machines @bigtwin - I'm sure the spit that hits the record when you blow on it doesn't help with the cleaning. Carbon fiber bristle record brushes (not the thick ones) sweep the dust off and have a blade (if you want to call it that) that removes the dust ... | |
TEKTON IMPACT MONITORS @thecarpathian - LMAO!I guess some people like having their stereos look like they're in a physics lab or some frankenstein basement OR.Others care about looks more than the sound. They're the old B&O type customer, but we welcome all to this ... | |
TEKTON IMPACT MONITORS If you need to mess around with tweeters to get them to sound good to you, then you bought a partially assembled speaker kit, which is fine if that is what you want. I am not sure why Tektons get so much free publicity here. Maybe it's just becaus... | |
Record Cleaning Machines +1 @mijostyn. Only thing I would add is that if there is an out of print record I want, I will occasionally buy it if it is NM or mint condition.i have never had one of those come back dirty. Occasionally they have a minor scratch/pop for a revo... | |
Record Cleaning Machines @oldaudiophile- i use a very dense brush to clean my stylus maybe once a week with a slight amount of MFSL stylus cleaning fluid. That sometimes makes a difference in SQ when I can see some dust on the brush.Sounds like youve got a good tracking s... |
