| McIntosh MT5 vs Rega 8 or 10 " I believe their Performance DC air and DC wood lines compare favorably to Rega’s?" Arm choice will probably bump the price up quick. The Performance with the linear TT5 arm looks impressive. Non air so no compressor box/line fuss. | |
| McIntosh MT5 vs Rega 8 or 10 "Everything I read claims the 10 is another step up in improvements. Are you meaning the 8 has a better value/looking for overall best sound. " I would stick with those claims. You're always going to encounter opinion with "better value/price r... | |

| Billie Holiday's Prime? The best $10 spent Billie Holiday – The Golden Years (1962, Vinyl) - Discogs 1962 issue of Billie at her best 1930-40's. Great box set. | |
| Billie Holiday's Prime? Billies alchohol/drug addiction took its toll on her by the early 50's which obviously affected her health and talent. IMO up to the 1959 "All or Nothing at all" is essential Billie. | |
| A very eclectic KTEL offering. "played Zepplin's "Candy Store Rock" on the juke box" The only Zeppelin song I ever saw was Stairway. CSR is indeed, on Presence. I | |
| Placement of subwoofers Looks like you have a solid choice of gear there. Like many of us, you don't have a dedicated space, and limited to getting the most out of a living area-more importantly BOSS approval. I'd try placing one behind the listening if possible. Trus... | |
| I feel bad for Generation X and The Millennial's All the great music from that period is lucky if it gets chosen for a commercial, movie soundtrack or sampled for a pop/rap tune. Then, when the original cut is heard for the 1st time, they will say-Hey that group copied it ! Reality-all of this ... | |
| Otello vs. Carmen mkII.........help me choose. The Otello has great mid/highs, buit will not produce deep bass. It is mentioned on the website. I keep one as a backup. The Audio Technica OC series is another line worth looking into. AUDIO-TECHNICA cartridge,AUDIO-TECHNICA phono cartridge,... | |
| Manley Chinook MK ll vs Chinook There is an additional MM & MC gain setting, Gold Lion Tubes and the the faceplate is smaller without the rack mount holes. I'd look for a used 1st generation which are going for well under $2K, if you're going to use carts higher than .5mv.... | |

Pacific Jazz label was an audiophile pressing ... | |
| Hey, I'm looking for the highest quality recordings from the following Artists: Billies discography goes back to 78’s, but I’m guessing you’re not into that. You want a particular album FROM the period it was released. Example Billie Holiday - Body And Soul | Releases | Discogs This album released 1957. Arguably, the 1st... | |

| Musical Surroundings Phonomena II+ -OR- Moon 110lp v2 -OR- Parasound ZPhono XRM Phono " It's one year old." Oops! I owned a P5 when that series was relavent. When I see "P3" I think the series from the 90's early 2000's. The Rega line is great for what it is. I guess it's a sign I'm showing signs getting on in age. |
