| Thoughts? Have b&w 802 d3 and other items... Ditch the Monster Cable and get either some Mogami speaker cables or Canare 4S11 speaker cables. You can thank me later. | |
| Emotiva XPA-1 VS. McCormack DNA-750’s... IMHO Emotiva is pretend high end but not even mid-fi. Owned a piece many years ago, hated it because of ice pick in the ears treble and a loose bottom end. Quite gaudy looking as well and those blue lights can burn your retinas out. If people ar... | |
| Audiophile Demo Tracks Sign up on Legacy’s web site for the Audio Sampler 3. The tracks on your Triton Ones will blow your socks off! The sampler was free when I got it. If you like bass, listen to track 5, it is so powerful, it knocked 2 pictures off the top of the ... | |
| Did Nixon Erase My Tape? I thought Peter Graves was in Fury. “The story of a horse and the boy who loved him”. Peter Graves played the father on the show. | |
| Pro-Ject Xtension Evo 10 - Record Weight ? We need to see the weight before we can comment as there are probably at least 100 or so various weights and clamps. | |
| Replacing the SME 10 stock tonearm Can’t help you but I want to say what a good friend you are! Having a good friend is better than any audio equipment. Kudos to you. | |
| Von Schweikert speakers I have experience with the VR33/VR35 but one of the others. Did not like them, stopped listening to the system because I didn’t like them, sold them a year later. That’s the last time I bought speakers without listening to them. Went by the word o... | |
| KAB RF-1 connection I don’t know if the MA6900 has one. I am using McIntosh separates. You can use the tape loop if you have one, same thing as the processor loop. | |
| Vinyl on NAD M10 lower volume If it still bothers you, you can get a McIntosh integrated. You have the ability to adjust the individual levels on all your inputs, phono included, so all the levels match. | |
| KAB RF-1 connection I use mine on a processor loop on my Mac preamp. I play through the moving coil input and engage the processor loop when I want to use the filter. I have had mine for at least 8 years, it’s loaded with audiophile parts. A tape loop will work. ... | |
| Tara labs burn in I have found that with cables, if I don’t like them right out of the box, no amount of running them in, sprinkling with fairy dust or, using Voodoo won’t make them sound better. If you like the sound when new, then you will get refinement as the ... | |
| ZU Audio Omen Defs upgraded drivers Why not call them and talk to Sean? The guys there are very approachable. I thought I read something in one of the audio forums that someone had the upgraded drivers and he liked the older ones better. I think he was complaining about them being... | |
| conrad Johnson 350se and Magnepan 20 speaker @lectronjh50,I can’t explain it but that is what I heard. The guy that bought the amp off me called and thanked me, saying it was the best amp he ever possessed. I was using a Rogue RP-5 tube preamp, an Esoteric X-3 SACD player and GE Triton Ref ... | |
| Tubes Asylum I cruise AA but I have found most of the guys there are real cheapskates. They are always talking about ancient equipment which I never thought was very good to begin with. Our buddy Geoffkait resides there now, spewing the same nonsense as he did... | |
| conrad Johnson 350se and Magnepan 20 speaker Had a CJ MF2550 250wpc amp. One of the worst sounding solid state amps I ever had in the living room. The words slow, thick and syrupy comes to mind. Love their tube gear, not so much their solid state. |
