| Technics SL-1210G Headshells, Record Weights, and Mats @danmar123, I am leaning towards the Hana ML for my 1200G. How do you like yours, pro's and con's? | |
| Technics SL-1210G Headshells, Record Weights, and Mats I am using a hard mat made by either Oracle or Origin but not sure which. I use a Harmonic Research weight. They make 2, mine is the lighter one. This is all used on a Technics SL1200G. I tried many different weights and the HRS is the best of... | |
| Tube Phonostage Causing Rumble and Noises If you want to try a rumble filter, I can send you one to try out. I believe it is an RF-5 I purchased from KAB. I used it for years until I bought a Technics SL 1200G. My previous VPI Prime and Scout needed the filter. I can send it to you... | |
| Best subwoofer under 2K? I have an SVS PB2000 Pro that cost less than 1K and use with my JBL L100 Classic speakers. I am quite fussy but love the sub. It is perfect for my needs. Don’t make the mistake I did and get the sealed box, not ported like did. I had to use th... | |
| standby mode Does the amp have a setting that puts it into standby if there is a lull in the Music? I had that problem once with an amp and it turned out there was a switch on the back panel to defeat it. | |
| Anyone listen to Music on a FM tuner anymore? I should have mentioned in my earlier post that I use the Magnum Dynalab ST2 antennas (one for each tuner) with my Mac tuners. None of the so called powered antennas (think Terk) did anything but amplify a lot of noise. With the Magnum antennas,... | |
| Anyone listen to Music on a FM tuner anymore? I listen to FM stereo all day every day. Explanation, I have 2 systems. During the day, my main system is on and 95% of the time I am listening to FM on my McIntosh MR88 tuner. At around 4 in the afternoon, I turn off my main system and go upstair... | |
| How does the Mcintosh DAC1 compare to standalone DACS similar in price? I have the DAC 1 in my McIntosh C2500 tube preamp. It sounds good but no comparison to the R-to-R ladder DAC built into my Esoteric SACD player. It has the same sound as my old Wyred 4 Sound DAC 2. It sounds like every other DAC with the ESS ch... | |
| CROSS OVER CAPS @clintborland, Jackie Gleason said the same thing on The Honeymooners. | |
| Can we contribute As the late Harry Pearson summed his review of a best selling 120wpc Pioneer receiver; “plainly a piece of s***.” Best honesty I have ever read in an audio mag. | |
| What Holiday Gifts did you ask for or Give to Yourself? @jayctoy, congratulations on the LG OLED. Last January, I purchased a Sony top of the line 55 inch OLED for our living room My main stereo takes up a good portion of the room so we only had room for a 55 inch. My wife and I love it, it is so... | |
| Lifting the Christmas veil My wonderful wife gave me a gift certificate to my favorite cannabis shop. Best present ever! | |
| 611s I would go with a Mac 300 wpc amp. A pair of 611 monoblocks is overkill for those speakers | |
| Audio Quest Niagara 5000 I have also been considering the 5000 but I am not sure it will power my 4 source components, tube preamp and Mac 300wpc amp. What do you think? I could never afford the 7000. | |
| Logical next step from Legacy Signature SEs? Around $15K... If you love the Legacy sound, why not move up the line? |
