But without a great recorded LP in good condition it’s a waste of money and time.Being a period press snob, I’m obviously biased.That’s a separate thread topic altogether. IMO, may as well have a nice digital setup, if you’r... | |
| Should people with no turntable or reel to reel be considered audiophiles? No https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zOpfsGrNvnk Now go back to the basement and play your files. AND FOR HEAVENS SAKE, PUT A COASTER UNDER YOUR GLASS! | |
| McIntosh C 47 phono stage versus the Herron phono. You will only determine what sounds "better" by trying the Herron. Subjective and just and endless debate if an internal vs separate is "better"There's a reason many like the Herron, but it's not 100% liked as anything.It's already apples and ora... | |

It was their top dog.I've been using one I found here on Agon. Best $750 I spent on audio gear. Subjectively, the most "natural sounding" in the line... | |
| Power strip question I practice more, rather than get swallowed by the cable and tube thing with my audio setup.I DO "get it" though. A nicer tone makes you want to play more. Careful, if you stick around here, you'll become obsessed with plugging it in to a standard... | |

| The very best sound: Direct to Disc I'm familiar with those Sheffield D2D's but never heard one.Anyone have any of the late 70's Angel 45 Sonic Series? If you have BOTH, how do they compare sonically? Are the 45's anywhere near the quality of the Sheffield's?I have several of thes... | |
