| PS Audio Stellar Phono Preamp vs. Allinic H1202 Not a "bad" choice with either.I've demoed the1201 Allnic and heard the Stellar in few setups. The Allnic has a tube "presence" which my ears prefer. The Stellar will be the last word in quiet. Minimal tube noise from Allnic is only when blasting... | |
| Rega Planar 3 : Heavily upgraded yet produces a sound that I don't like I played with a P5 years ago.The most significant upgrade to my ears is replacing the plastic subplatter to an aftermarket aluminum model.Easily noticed SQ all around. Other than a different cartridge and plugging it into the best phonostage avail... | |
| Mixing REL subs, great idea or terrible idea? Unnecessary nervosa.Get more subs, plug them in. Obsess about all the other stuff discussed here. Get matching subs to please your eyes. | |
| Mary The Guitar Center unwritten law of "No Stairway to Heaven" should apply to everyone, anywhere. I burned out on Stairway to Heaven in 1977 while perfecting it on my cheap Les Paul copy. | |
| Best Power cable around/prefer under $300.... If you decide on giving Nordost a try, Blue Heaven is the way to go. The power cord shares the same construction of the Norse series(Heimdall).Obviously, it's scaled back just enough for the price point. Best buy for new Nordost users. | |
| Pure tube phono preamp "An all tube, no transformer, unprohibitively priced, phonostage seems to be a unicorn. Nothing against SUTs, it just seems like a shortcut and another thing in the signal path that could affect the sound."The "affect the sound" thing with an ... | |
| Rediscovering the music of my early youth..... and having LOTS of FUN! Whatever you listen to, don't let up on the physical therapy.I've been through a shoulder rotator cuff procedure. I know that pain going thru post surgery recovery. Move, move and move more! | |

| Vinyl pre-echo? This is a pre-post.Wait for the echo. | |
| Pure tube phono preamp The OP determined what the requirements are-ALL TUBE-rectified, tube gain(NO TRANSFORMERS)for LOMC. The majority of suggestions here do not fit the requirements. Looks like few understand the question.So far the following meet them-NVO & Aesth... | |
| TUBE BIAS, socket to me! In each case the tube was in the +/- tolerance range for satisfactory operating performance?I wish I find the article I read years ago about "tube matching" by an engineer who determined it’s baloney-at least for audio equipment. Maybe a rocket sh... | |
| Pure tube phono preamp "All tube" seems to be a tough find. Most have one thing or the other, but not BOTH.A manufacturer needs to step in and clarify the tube rectified thing. From my understanding, SS(diode/bridge rectifier) is the way to go from a technical standpoin... | |
| Feedback, thoughts, real experience with the Bergmann Magna turntable? "Comes with the sound-smith paua mkII cart which seems like a perfect synergy with my new Andros deluxe II phonostage."Well, you will have "the right stuff". The SS cart is a winner. The Bergmann is one of those Euro companies that just doesn't ha... | |
