| Multi Arm Table I have a Basis 2001 I had listed on here; it has now expired but if you might be interested I will re-list it. Really good sound; I just decided to go with one table; has a SME 3 on it now but other arms are a possibility. I have a Graham 2.2 I am... | |
| Linn lp12 Could be the power supply; I changed mine for the Mose Hercules. It requires a push to start on 45 but no belt change and starts itself on 33. If you need a used power supply mine was working fine when I replaced it; just wanted better performance... | |
| New Pro ject tube box or used ARC PH-3 ??? If you did get the Project get the SE edition, it is suppose to be considerably better; I would probably get the AR; although I have never owned any myself. | |
| Conrad Johnson Sonographe sa400 or McCormack DNA-1 If I were buying one I would get the McCarmack as I think it is a considerably newer design; I was a Sonography dealer but that was a long time ago and I can't remember what the sa400 sounded like if I ever had one. Adcom is/was a marketing compan... | |
| Spendor SP100 mid/bass rubber surround Not that different from what I can see. I use to be a Spendor dealer but not currently one. I am a dealer for other products brought in by the current importer so I see price lists and technical info. The best bet would be to get them direct from ... | |
| Spendor SP100 mid/bass rubber surround Are you dealing with Spendor or with the American importer? I recently had an importer ask me to pay $400 for an IC that was avalable in quanities of 10 from a large supply house for $40 each. I eventually bought 2 for $64 on ebay. The importer's ... | |
| acoustat X That is a blast from the past! I use to have Acoustat in the mid 60s; at least one pre and an amp I built from a kit. They carried the Xs at Allied Radio, which I use to frequent. They had a built in amp if I remember. Should still be a good speak... | |
| musical fidelity m3 phono input Miker is correct. I get better results from mine using a Bob's Devices SUT into the MM input but that is an extra expense. Also not mentioned is that you can seperate the pre and amp sectiones by simply disconnecting the ICs between them. When I t... | |
| Spendor SP100 mid/bass rubber surround I have had 2 pairs of S 100s since about 1990 and both are still working perfectly. | |
| Metrum Octave Dac experiences That is where it excels; lacks the "Digital" sound even most very good dacs have. Very hard to get a handle on the sound; which is always a very good sign. When I get a component that is considerably better than my old ones it is very hard to desc... | |
| Metrum Octave Dac experiences No; I am using a Meridian 200 transport, which despite its age is still one of the best out there. Transports do make a major difference in sound quality. Digital cable also makes a difference. | |
| How many LP's do you own? How long did it take? I suppose that I am not alone in listening to a relatively low number per month and rotating to a different group the next month. I had not listened to "PIGS EYE JASS Vol. 2" for decades but lately have been playing it very often. Recently got out... | |
| Krell 402E latest - advise needed If I thought the extra power was needed I would consider it; do you find your current amp seeming to run out of power? The 402E is one of the best out there but if the 302E is the same circuit in a slightly lower power you may not gain anything. I... | |
| Graham arm on Scout Overkill; the VPI arm is as least as good an arm as the Scout is a table. If you want better performance go to a Scoutmaster. These are both good products; I sell VPI and have a Graham 2.2 myself. Is the Graham the better arm? Probably; but look a... | |
| Spendor SP100 mid/bass rubber surround You could try a local repair shop if there is one; I had 8 12" woofers repaired recently. The speaker company that had produced the subs they were in was out of business. If no local shop possibly look for one on the internet. Have you tried the S... |
