| Favourite Guitarists Great list. I would delete Joe Bonamassa and Guthrie Govan and Slash. All certainly competent musicians, but "too young" to be with all the other greats. If "young guns" are included, I'll include Derek Trucks. Glen Campbell is one of the orig... | |

| Finally everyone can enjoy good sounds at home with LG TV bars and Meridean speakers Pioneer models were doing this years ago. At least that what I heard while at their headquarters setup. | |
| How long did you have to wait for Primaluna to deliver Look for a used one. There’s never a shortage of PL’s on the used market for great prices. "Best" value buy-used PL’s. | |
| Should I buy an SME 30/12A for 15K? If you’re expecting good sound from any decent turntable- a minimum level of phono stage must be employed. $3-5K is where to be. | |
| Your thoughts/experience with very good, cheap tuners? Mt daily driver is a 1965, 13 tube McIntosh MR 71. As a backup, I have a Cambridge Audio 550T. Great discontinued cheap tuner that can be found for probably $100 or so. Decent sound,remote and RDS display. Looks like a pricier unit too. Curren... | |
| Project Debut Carbon EVO vs. Technics SL-1500C vs Technics SL-1210GR People are on holiday, stuck in airports or too busy with figuring how to get around in blizzard conditions. Check back Jan 1st, 2023. | |
| High-end-turntables " I have no recourse thru Wise because I had my bank wire the money for me and Wise has no record of me." I was afraid your response was coming soon. Sorry to hear that. On the upside, it is....only money lost. You can and will recover from the... | |
| End Game Turntable suggestions 5:43 into the video- a polished turntable is already a little much, but "bedazzled" AND polished? OUCH! | |
| High-end-turntables At least if you used a credit card-no loss to you? ALWAYS use a card for transactions-no real loss in the event you're dealing with a less than honorable business. | |
| End Game Turntable suggestions "Many people raise concerns abt potential future problems if motor goes bad - any idea if VPI stocks these motors?" I wouldn't be concerned about future motor problems. Even in the event something goes wrong, VPI historically has been solid with ... | |
| Experience With Linear Tracking Turntables "I invested in a Bergmann Galder Air Bearing Turntable with an Odin Liner Tracking Tone Arm. Simply an amazing turntable and arm." I've heard one with a couple of my best pressings. Lucky you. Need to decide what my next cartridge will be. ... | |
| End Game Turntable suggestions "If i can stretch the budget it really does check every box in my list. Also I heard it at a show last year, but of course how they sound on 200+K systems is a different matter..." musicmatters1206- If I were in the buying mode w/$10K burning in... | |
| End Game Turntable suggestions "VPI HW-40 going for abt 11K used)" Find the right seller and proper negotiating, you could probably get one for $10K or less. Used VPI's are plentiful, so you're in the driver's seat for what you want to pay. I'd add the Rega P10 w/Apheta to ... | |
| Four Hour Tube Amp Warm-Up Longtime PL user. 5 minutes warm up, and it's ready for overdrive the next 4 hours. I don't have 4 hours to wait for anything to perform "better." I'd get my hearing tested and avoid reading audio forums. |
