| Linear tracking tonearms..... Tms, I'm about to go for the Salvation magnetic bearing upgrade. What'r you're impressions? | |
| Zu Druid & Definition Roundup Gopher, too bad you're moving away from Zu. Hope you don't miss 'em too much! | |
| Zu Druid & Definition Roundup Quite a few changes, all really complimentary to the Def4s. First, SET amps (Audion Black Shadows), Soundsmith Straingauge SG200 cart, Symposium acoustics Isis/Rollerblock isolation, Entreq grounding and Westwick 8k pro audio 8kVA balanced power t... | |
| Wyetech Labs Ruby Std preamp - any views? Hi Pav. I'm surprised you felt the Hovland was prone to fatigue. It has shortcomings, but I wouldn't have accused it of that (neither did any reviews. YMMV, I guess), over the 7-8 years I've owned it.I guess the Ruby would be an improvement if it'... | |
| Linear tracking tonearms..... Let me second Lewm re the Trans Fi Audio Terminator T3Pro. I've been running it for over a year now, and compared to my previous SME V, it's better in EVERY respect, esp. lack of tracking artifacts, speed and transparency. Would NEVER go back to s... | |
| Wyetech Labs Ruby Std preamp - any views? Pavpet, can you describe in a bit more detail the difference btwn the Hovland HP200 and Ruby Std? | |
| Wyetech Labs Ruby Std preamp - any views? Thanx F1a. I've just stepped up to SET monoblocks (Audion Black Shadows) that I'm really happy with. These are coming off my current pre, tube Hovland Hp-200 w. NOS 50's Telefunken valves.I'd say my current sound is pretty transparent and dynamic,... | |
| Wyetech Labs Ruby Std preamp - any views? Yes, that's where I became aware of it. Just interested in actual user comments. Currently running a 2006 vintage Hovland HP200 pre with NOS Telefunken tubes that I love, but my curiosity is a little piqued by this component, and the price is in t... | |
| Entreq Silver Tellus grounding/earthing system Paul, I believe Entreq works at the level of the signal ground (hence the RCA leads that insert into spare terminals), Tripoint Troy works on the chassis ground (hence the leads that screw into the component bodywork).Please post your experiences ... | |
| Entreq Silver Tellus grounding/earthing system Paul, I'm not privy to what's inside, but from what I can gather it is a combination of silver and copper plates and tightly packed minerals. Unsure how it all pertains to the neutral, earth and positive. The UK Entreq rep may fill you in further,... | |
| Entreq Silver Tellus grounding/earthing system D Vibe, I'm just about to install an 8kVA 85kg Westwick 8k balanced power transformer. Together with Entreq grounding, my system has been taken to a whole new level. The cost of these upgrades is equivalent to a pre amp/pow amp upgrade in the sche... | |
| Entreq Silver Tellus grounding/earthing system Dragon, I concur that the prices can seem totally crazy and unjustifiable. In the UK at least, Entreq prices are c. a third of Tripoint Troy, hence easier to swallow.I have no experience of Tripoint, but both it and Entreq are trying to address th... | |
| Thales Simplicity tonearm review in Stereophile. Great that the principle of linear tracking is undergoing a resurgence with the Thales Simplicity and Schroeder LT. I'm a total convert with my Trans Fi Audio Terminator T3Pro air bearing linear tracker, a total giant killer at a tenth of the pric... | |
| Entreq Silver Tellus grounding/earthing system Guys, please contact Fraser on the email contact I posted 12-11-13, he'll be able to give you definitive answers to tech qs. I can help out with user experiences. | |
| Entreq Silver Tellus grounding/earthing system Yes, it is a little confusing. Basically each different box has a different number of grounding terminals on the back, each terminal able to support up to 2 grounding leads ie ground up to 2 components.So, the Minimus has 1 terminal which means th... |
