| Mint LP Best Protractor "Thats why I came here to ask the experts."If you rely on the "experts" here, then dump the VPI. It's "wrong" VPI/HW doesn't know what they're doing.As mentioned any jig is going to be "correct" only in 2 points of the arc. HW came up with their c... | |
| Mint LP Best Protractor "Currently I only have the protractor that VPI provided. I've read it's not the best option."An exercise in madness. If HW uses the very jig you have, why would it be inferior?Having the best cart and phonostage I can afford, then using the suppl... | |
| This looks like a terrible investment Schlep boxes of records for weeks on end? Your margin when it's all said and done?Trying to resell might be worthwhile for the lot @10K. That's being optimistic. You're gonna get calls/emails from a minimum..5%? An album will be defective, and th... | |
| This looks like a terrible investment Who has anything in the pic"Lee Morgan-Sidewinder...it's okay, but I could use a nicer copy. I want that Grant Green.Double unobtanium. | |
| Manufacturers with Excellent customer service PS Audio did a 3 week turn for my dead Power Plant Premier. Good as new with a one year warranty. Fed Ex even delivered on early time window. | |
| Hearing loss and HiFi "Hearing aids are coming 9/12 and I didn’t plan to do anything until I get them and get used to them."Good for you, pipebro. There are a few here mentioning certain brands that seem to bode well for us audiophools.I'm getting a new evaluation next... | |
| Another shout out for great service "I dropped my PPP in the trash not long ago. When it failed, I kept it for a few months to hear a difference. I never notice a big change."vegasears- The ac regen thing in itself is a polarizing subject. Add to that the PPP, as it's not a PS Audi... | |
| Hearing loss and HiFi And your not considering hearing aids? I wouldn't do anything further until then. Didn't the ENT mention it will only get worse as time goes by? My hearing drops after 7Khz and tinnitus. | |
| Power Supply for Schiit Mani Phono Preamp If you can't do it now, do it when you can.Consider a better phonostage. The table deserves it. You're not hearing what the setup is capable of doing.I bought one of those piece of Schiit's- great for the price, while my tubed unit was being repai... | |
| New vs vintage/original vinyl "I set up a time for a "spin"...picked up a "new" heavy vinyl copy of "Abbey Road". I thought I could...if not win him over...at least show him a way to relent a bit on his opinion. Well, as fate would have it...the brand-new and sealed copy I... | |
| Another shout out for great service "2 weeks?Wow, that was a fast repair."I see I goofed my original post. That should be 3 weeks. 3 weeks and 3 days leaving my door and returning, to be exact. Still very reasonable. Most important, PS Audio did turn it around and Fed Ex had it on m... | |
| I think some cables are just a little too expensive. "Hey tablejocky. Are those self powered speakers. If so, yeah you could do without $65,000 cables. I've never h"eard of them. How much would a pair set you back? Or is it if you have to ask..."chrismini-I'm just goofing on the whole premise...Thos... | |
| I think some cables are just a little too expensive. Not worthy of these speakers https://backesmueller.de/en/products/line-serie/bm-line-100.html They are entry level cables. | |
| Pondering to pull the trigger on an AT VM 760SLC "MC is an expensive move, and OP, like me for many years is highly resistant to MC."uh...if you take the time to read about it, it's a $400 entry level moving iron cart that is compatible in a MM phonostage. | |
| Pondering to pull the trigger on an AT VM 760SLC "The old days, one could go to a number of Los Angeles stereo chain stores...Federated, Pacific Stereo, Now Sound, Rogers Sound Labs, Cal Stereo...and so many others."http://www.pacificstereo.net/store.jpgRemember the great ads in the Sunday LA Ti... |
