| Best Cartridge for Raidho D3 - Atlas, GFS, PC1-S I like the Ortofon or Lyra...the Etna gets more to my soul than does the Atlas, but I would be delighted with either. | |
| Turntable set up- How easy is it Its not that hard, but it is exacting. Be prepared to spend days before it's done.....actually it would be beneficial to tweak it from time to time thereafter. You should have the proper tools...good light, a quiet safe desk to work on, including ... | |
| TUBE AMP LOVERS - What SS amp makes you smile??? As time goes on, top of the line electronics are abandoning their colored sound in favor of neutrality. Today's best electronics are meeting in the middle ground where perfection lies. I too have Ayre electronics and you really can't tell from whi... | |
| A month of tweaks ..only a month?? I've been working at mine for years, and can always find some improvement. ..the joy of the hobby. | |
| Spotify sounds compressed I'm streaming Spotify through an Asus wifi/Denon through Airplay, and it sounds fine. I only listen to it for background music throughout the house, but it certainly is acceptable. | |
| Measuring VTF on a Clearaudio Concept Moonglum has a good answer, but remember that playing a record is a dynamic adventure. As the arm goes up to the top of a warp, it weighs more than on the flat...providing you were careful about the setup to begin with. Also vtf affects vta which ... | |
| Best arm for Dr. Feickert Analogue Firebird Table Atmosphere.... I agree that LP's do a great job, but there probably (wasn't there) was a world of difference between the record and her actual voice. I'm a pro violinist, and can tell you that my violin sounds different in every room I play it in ... | |
| clearaudio turntables vs vpi Thanks Hiendmuse....I agree...a 2000 dollar experiment would be reasonable for me too. | |
| clearaudio turntables vs vpi Thanks for the insight. I talked to Harry about the performance upgrade to the Superscout with the mag drive...he said it was a huge difference. Personally I couldn't see how it could make such a difference since the mag drive would eliminate vert... | |
| VPI classic 3.0 Signature anti-skate. Disagree....all my cartridges sound better on my 3D or 10.5 with no antiskate. To me, antiskate sounds like excessive damping is in place....not for me. | |
| Clear Day XLR Thanks Vito....just as a precaution to others....(I use silver cables too) Sometimes silver can be unnaturally favorable to highs (thinking of Nordost and others in MY system). Cables always sound different in different systems. Its wise to live w... | |
| clearaudio turntables vs vpi Thanks Hiendmuse....was wondering if its worth replacing my Superscout Rim Drive, Classic platter, 3D arm with the mag drive. I understand it will be about 6000 dollars... The rim drive has better "flow" than the belt tables..even the Classic...ju... | |
| clearaudio turntables vs vpi Has anyone heard VPI's new Avenger? | |
| clearaudio turntables vs vpi Not only does VPI make a great turntable, but it also has great customer support and very high trade value. ..seems like a no brainer. | |
| Disappointing audition after great review Happens all the time. Nothing is as good as your own audition |
