| Who has experience with audiophile circuit breakers? "audiophile circuit breakers?" Hmmm... "provide constant power?" How is your TV and fridge working? | |
| Steve Morse pays tribute to Jeff beck The only element JB brought that Morse misses is the occasional outburst of blues aggression. Maybe it’s the compression or lower volume, but when Beck wants to let the anger out, you know it, and in Morse’s hands it seems muted. But I am delig... | |
| Steve Morse pays tribute to Jeff beck A Jeff Beck cover is a tall order. Morse is in the small company of players who can pull it off. | |
| Time for a new cartridge Longtime VPI Classic user. Your setup is nice. Based on the limitations of the arm I wouldn’t look past anything in the price point of the Audio Technica ART 9 series. ART 20 maybe won’t be fully appreciated? VPI users seem give Lyra Delos the ... | |
| Does anyone have experience matching an Icon PS1 MKII with a Soundsmith Zephyr MIMC Star? Using the SS MIMC with a tube phono doesn’t need to be so involved. The OP can get one of these for LE$$ and either choice is good https://www.audiogon.com/listings/tube-zesto-audio-leto-1-5-preamp-2017-06-21-preamplifiers https://www.audiog... | |

| Step 1: Primaluna Dialogue Premium HP Integrated vs their EVO 300 Floyd Hybrid Integrated Longtime PL user, presently DHP. "I would prefer not to have to replace power tubes every few years during retirement, when my music enjoyment time will hopefully increase 5 to 10 fold." Even if your listening time increases dramatically, I thin... | |
| Happy listening in SoCal (and with my simpleton brain, I would think; if one can afford all tube mega mono blocks , how would he notice a slight increase in the electric bill?) Reality, yes. If you've got the setup, you don't care about the bill. A Bugatti owner isn't dr... | |
| Happy listening in SoCal 'The lowest rate tier was 9:00 PM to 5:00 AM. If they dropped anything it would be that one." charliee- Not long ago, SCE dropped the medical device discount RATE and just upped the limit for KWH use. They sure aren't going to lose $$ on adjust... | |
| Alternative to Zyx Ultimate Airy New cart and still curious.. Not a good place. The proposed $2500 could fund a " better" phono stage to further exploit the potential of whatever cart is used. $2500 used=$5000 MSRP | |
| Feedback from PrimaLuna EVO 300 owners. "Does it pair well with SS amps, and if so, which ones?" If you're not set on using a SS amp, a matching PL tube amp is always available in the listings- seemingly at negotiatiable price too. Longtime PL user. | |
| VPI TNT 3 "Does anyone have any suggestions to dial in 45rpms in the meantime until I’m able to pickup an out of production SDS or an updated PLC (currently VPI calls it the ADS)." This is the better option: Eclipse Series – Sota Turntables More accurate... | |
| Truly Stunning Vinyl Album "Not an "audiophile" sounding recording, but "Superstition" by Stevie Wonder (on his Talking Book album) is a track that is very "punchy" sounding. One of the best drum sounds I've ever heard- " bdp24- You probably know the story-that intro was... | |
| Hot off the press...Technics SL 1300G "I prefer the weight because the clamp imposes stress on the spindle whereas the weight does not. I cannot detect any sonic difference in the use of one over the other." jmeyers- So you can fit a rubber washer, place a LP over that and the clam... | |
| Rega Planar 3 upgrades You can always count on Ebay to find a MIC knockoff. You'll gets what you pay for-could be an exact knockoff or...not so much. From pics it looks just like my REAL jig. |
