| An upgrade a long time overdue I'm using Vandersteen 5A's with Ayre....haven't heard a better match. | |
| Very Bad purchase from upscale audio Acoustic Zen Adagio If you can't just return the speakers, and the finish is disturbing you, bear in mind that the speaker can be excellently refinished by a furniture refinisher....I know that would be an expense, but sometimes if there is no other way, its best jus... | |
| XLR/RCA dilemma Personally I would retain the Ayre purity using balanced connections and finding a better way. I have an all Ayre system balanced from cartridge/CD player through amp and am very satisfied. | |
| Ever sit down to listen and just say wow? The last time I was enthralled about a music system was with Infinity IRS, Audio Research, Decca cartridge/Linn Sondek (it was the last time I had sex also - don't know if there was a connection) | |
| An upgrade a long time overdue Why is time a function of your decision? Are you annoyed at some aspect of your system? Even if you buy used...its a great way to slim down your wallet without satisfaction. | |
| My personal experience with Direct Drive versus Belt Drive When I modified my belt drive to rim drive, it was a definite improvement...clearly audible. From the instant the cartridge touched the record, the bass was more solid, more clarity in the mids, even it seemed to have improved the dynamics. | |
| Please help! - Buy VPI Classic or keep Technics 1200 HUHHH? | |
| old jmw9 vs new Why make such a little improvement, when you could take a giant step up with the 3D arm if you can mount it on your turntable (you don't say what table you have) | |
| best speakers what do you think Have you listened to Vandersteen speakers? No matter your price range, they have an able contender. | |
| Please help! - Buy VPI Classic or keep Technics 1200 i have to laugh at the absolutes that are posted on these pages. The reality is that TableJockey's are my thoughts exactly...re: Rega as well. | |
| Soundsmith Zephyr MkIII, Boheme on VPI Classic 2 Companion The Black too etched?...that's what I object to the Soundsmith carts. As to which one is better....there is no answer....they both will work fine. | |
| Do I need a power conditioner? no | |
| My personal experience with Direct Drive versus Belt Drive Raul....You seem to be getting bad comments on these forums. I, certainly appreciate your efforts and do hope they continue. You seem to always be telling the truth whereas many on these pages just pontificate will guesses rather than experience. | |
| Feedback through turntable Marble is awful for a VPI.....it rings like a bell. DO try Bearpaws as I mentioned above. Roller bearings are no good for VPI...it must be anchored to the center of the Earth. Anything that allows motion doesn’t work. ..springs, Gingko balls, etc. | |
| Audioquest WEL Signature Has anyone tried the top end Wireworld? They work extremely well in my system. They aren't colored, enhanced, editorializing, etc., etc. What's interesting to me is that ClearCables Biwire Shotgun are nearly identical, except that Wireworld has... |
