| Hearing Aid Confusion OK, can anyone recommend a good audiologist in CT? What? Speak up. I CAN'T HEAR YOU ;-) I really would like a recommendation. I'm very suspicious of anyone who diagnoses, prescribes, and then then turns around as sells you the Rx. | |

| Newbie building modest system ...what amp? +1 for McCormack DNA 0.5 (or 1.0). | |
| Denon SUT or Micro Seiki head-amp? the Puccini Settanta is already a nightmare when it comes to "volume control": you need to have surgery precision with that knob.That's what I was learning from the web reviews I read. Excess overall gain coupled with a finicky attenuator is a rec... | |
| Who is the WORST Audio Shop? different people have different outcomes when they visit the same dealer.Sometimes that is true; but sometimes different people have the same outcome when they visit the same dealer. That's why it's not appropriate to extrapolate from a sample of ... | |
| Denon SUT or Micro Seiki head-amp? Looking at some comments on-line about the amp you are using, there are some suggestions that the gain steps are a bit large at the lower end of the scale, so I think that 80 DB of phono gain would be too much; leaving you wanting more fine contro... | |
| Denon SUT or Micro Seiki head-amp? Well, you know that 60 dB of gain is not enough, so you'd have to use the MC input which would give you 80 dB, which might very well be too much, depending on how much gain your line stage and amp supplies, room size, etc. If that were the case, y... | |
| Denon SUT or Micro Seiki head-amp? Fedocable- Your welcome. I suggested the head-amp because in a highly resolving system, I have preferred a high gain active phono stage vs. a xformer. I have very little technical expertise in this area, but I am told that one of the reasons is th... | |
| Denon SUT or Micro Seiki head-amp? Fedocable- Marakanetz MAY be correct but if there are import limitations it might not be possible to find a sufficiently high gain full function pre-amp or phono stage. Using the KAB gain calculator, a cart w 0.2 mV output requires about 64 dB of ... | |
