| Need a list of TT with arms and motors seperate A previous response hasn't made it yet (or so it seems for the moment).After some consideration, I was going to add what Dan_ed said about the armpods coupling with the platform so why bother. But he did so I won't :^)The "easy" answer to the ques... | |
| Need a list of TT with arms and motors seperate There aren't many tables out there where the arm is on an arm "base" or "armpod" which is COMPLETELY separated from the plinth. If you are willing to accept a "half-way there" solution to what you are looking for, like the Teres where the armboard... | |
| Review: Yamaha PX-3 Turntable Got it off a web auction (I live in Japan). I'll put a picture up as soon as I get it set up. The PX-1 was the first one out (1977), and the the PX-2 followed in 1979, followed by the PX-3 (1981). The MSRP at the time was 4x higher. It weighted 27... | |
| Sony Qualia Versus 2007 Products From what I understand, the new Bravia line is effectively the same technology as the Qualia 46" (same filters, same LED backlight). The 46" Qualia was by far the best LCD at the time it was introduced and beat the Sharp 45 when it came out, but i... | |
| Want to get into Analog but i do not have a preamp Btstrg, from what I know (and I could be wrong), the LS-15 does not have a phono stage built-in. The SP-14 is one of the "hybrid" models. At least one commentary I've seen disparages the power supply but I would do a search of the archives to find... | |
| Three Classical Sacd's on a desert island For the sake of tossing three out there which I think are great and are currently at the top of the "recently played" pile (and which have tended to stay up there despite owning them for a few years...)Classical1) Benjamin Britten - Suites for Vio... | |
| Want to get into Analog but i do not have a preamp I guess part of this will depend on what is "NOT very expensive"... I will make a quick assumption at the "less than $1000" mark and go from there (a little over that price, the number of possibilities of "good" rises quite quickly when considerin... | |
| My Supratek Chenin is Shipping Monday Ait, I personally cannot believe that a SS# is required. It doesn't sound a little risky, it sounds a lot risky. I would not do it. Period. I would take the chance of letting it languish and then deal with it. If you are concerned, you might send ... | |
| Review: Yamaha PX-3 Turntable I just bought a PX-1. I will post again when I get it set up.For reference, there is a Japanese site with some information about the PX-3 (and the PX-1).If you paste the site address into Google's search window, you'll get a link to the site and a... | |
| Amp recommendation for AKG K1000's headphones? I use an EAR 859 with my AKG K1000s. I don't use them often enough though. While the separation between the binding posts is too wide (requires either jumpers or splitting the cable a bit...), I love the amp dearly. Despite its 13.5 watts, and the... | |
| Recomendations on CD Palyers with Volume Control Have you checked the archives? Try here and do a search on all words "cd" "volume" and "control". You should find a variety of suggestions. | |
| Reel to Reel Tape Decks Thanks Travis,I can find Technics decks here in Tokyo relatively easily. What do they go for in the US?Travis (aka T_Bone) | |
| Japanese Music "Traditional" music is a tough one. There are several different kinds of music one might call "traditional" but only some of it is really accessible.Classical: There are a few Japanese classical composers where the "Japanese-ness" shines through -... | |
| Jadis Eurythmie - Anyone ever listen to them? Tabl10s says..."If they were female, you'd be sitting in a room with a big ugly chick with a nice personality..."Some would say twins... a pair of voluptuous twins with really nice honkers... :^) I'd say that it depends on what you like. I happen ... | |
| Using Japan 100V Accuphase amp in US 120V. Safe? FWIW, when I asked Accuphase in Japan (I live in Japan) a couple of years ago what my options were if I bought a piece in Japan and moved to the US afterwards. Their explanation was that as long as I had owned it in Japan for more than 6 months, I... |
