Buyers Beware Avoid Shawser61 Possibly Fraud Doubtful he is away for the Holidays. He posted another ad on 12-27-2012. At the very least, he should have sent you a tracking number. | |
Phono cables Since you have a Scout turntable, why not use VPI's own phono cables. A 1 meter pair is around 200.00. Its the same wire your tonearm is wired with. | |
Kenwood L1000D Cd Player Inquiry Was built in late 80's/early 90's. Did not use any oversampling and was built like a tank. Good sound quality. I Googled the player and came up with this in less than 5 minutes. Lots of info on this. | |
2013 Wish List I may try one of the more expensive moving magnet cartridges for my Scout and may get an interconnect for my Esoteric player that can exploit the sound quality from the player. | |
MIT Bi-Wire Speaker Cable Question Yeah I would do that but there is a network box and the low and high terminations come out of it. Also, there are other electronic parts inside the box (Zobel Network?). | |
A simple Request to Sellers- Whenever I sell something here, I keep the buyer informed every step of the way. I usually get paid via Paypal, so after I receive payment, I message the buyer and thank them for the sale. I usually ship the next day and again, I message the track... | |

The best classic reel to reel tape recorders Back in the 70's and early 80's, I sold both Teac/Tascam and Revox. I always felt the Revox was the better sounding machine. Keep the Revox and save yourself some money. | |
Best reasonably priced classic hi-end tuner You csan find a Magnum Dynalab FT101A tuner for under 400.00. | |
What do you feel is the best used SACD player? Any of the Esoteric Players. Built to last, hold their value and sound wonderful! | |
Is it too much to ask.... If I am interested in a product and the seller doesn'tprovide even the most basic specs or worse, list a product and not say if it is an amp, pre, speaker, etc then I will not buy from them. If the pictures show a lot of dust (are you that lazy th... | |
Upgrade Primare CD31 to ??? SACD Player Get yourself a used Esoteric player and you will never look back. | |
Marantz SR4003 question... I wouldn't. Usually home theater receivers don't have a really beefy power supply and it could be disasteros if you are feeding 4 ohm speakers. | |
Amp, On A Budget? I would go for the Emotiva UPA-2 amp. It is a tremendous bang for the buck. It is built very well and they sound really good. I had a 200.00 Emotiva dac in my system for almost a year. I bought a different dac for 1,000.00 and it is only very slig... | |
Is it too much to ask.... I agree 100%. It pisses me off to have to do an internet search to find out the power rating. A few weeks back I came sooo close to buying an amp that I really liked and thought would be a good fit. It was a very large piece of equipment so I thou... |
