| Gentleman, get yer credit cards ready... Maybe someone who did, is now getting an email that reads something like this:Thank you for your order. It is in customs. To avoid any further delay, please submit funds of $500, and it will avoid any further delays. | |
| Dynavector XX2 mk2 vs Lyra DELOS which is better? Oh no, it's one of those "better" threads.The "better" is always the one ,others tell you about. | |
| Our Responsibility geoffkait-there's likely plenty of people who have heard nice audio systems, like music and could care less about how it's delivered. I'm sure there are some among us who have actual musician friends who live/breath music,and are content with an a... | |
| Our Responsibility These forums should be about audio stuff, not social impact and the heady things that can go with it. This high end audio nonsense has nothing to do with the love/appreciation of music. The only "responsibility" is to yourself, which is to not a... | |
| Gentleman, get yer credit cards ready... "to support the cheaters?".Chakster, you're right. Even if you did receive a table, it's a bad karma purchase.Probably your priceless stamper gets ruined on first play! | |
| Gentleman, get yer credit cards ready... I suppose one could use a pre paid card, if wasting a little amount of cash isn't a big deal? Curious to see what actually shows up at my door. | |
| Cambridge Audio CD Player Has Died Since CA has served you well, have you looked attheir inexpensive transport?https://www.cambridgeaudio.com/usa/en/products/cx/cxcUsing a dac within your budget, it might be an even nicer sounding combination.I have an aging 550C that is plugged i... | |
| Gentleman, get yer credit cards ready... Im too busy looking for the site that sells $2 LOMC and the $10 all tube phono stage(vintage, N.O.S. tube included,naturally)I will post pics of the new setup on instagram for all to see, once everything is set up. | |
| What equipment upgrades or tweaks will improve the sound of drums? No secret here.It's not clear what your "quality vinyl recordings" are. IMO, reissues are always a disappointment if you have the opportunity to play a period release.Reissues are fine, but only as a last resort for my earsSeek out original presse... | |
| Thoughts on extending speaker life. You have great speakers, forget about it.Listen to music, life's too short to be concerned. Perhaps in 20years, when the drivers show their age, you can then seek out a complete set of NOS drivers. Oh but wait, those too, have been sitting around... | |
| Myth or Magic? I've heard it.Meh. It's more of a conversation piece. It sounds like fine for what it is. For the price, a nicer table with a better cart can be found.It's a entry level table with a floating platter...yawn. Entertaining for a few minutes, then i... | |
| Mapleshade or Butcher Block Acoustics flip49er,I have Mapleshade planks under stuff. No company offers a SOLID chunk of wood. They are all multiple pieces glued together. Likely, impossible to offer a real, one piece of 4" maple for a price someone is willing to pay? I believe lamin... | |
| The omitted link, how important is it in the total R.O.I? Most of the systems appear to be victim of awful room setup.Maybe because some are in a functional living space/ S.O. considerations? Whatever they are, I'be seen some questionable configurations.I can't imagine DRC replacing actual room enhanceme... | |
| Phono preamp I have used the Schiit Mani. Great for the price, and subjectivelyl(as EVERYTHING audio) equal to units twice or more the cost.As mentioned earlier, try one and sell it if you don't like it. For $129, no wallet damage either way. |
