| Something on top of a speaker=okay? I don't object to a little "something on top of speakers | |
| New Rega P10 setup "I purchased an open box, no cart for $2,500.00 less because that's what I can afford right now" 10-4. Didn't interpret your OP clearly. I'd simply try all your existing carts and see what sounds the "best" to your ears. Looks like you got it fo... | |
| New Dedicated Line - Almost No improvement Laynes- I fail to understand what in your post is the actual SQ problem? Your PL has noise suppression circuitry. As mentioned, a good piece of equipment with adequate power supply is really all that's needed. You have the dedicated line, whi... | |
| New Rega P10 setup Rega Apheta-3 screws, adjust tracking force=ready to play. Why isnt Rega's own high end cart on your list? If Apheta isnt enough Aphelion@$5500 | |
| Is this an alternative to Stromtank and PS Audio ? What does PS Audio offer that's equivalent? | |
| Revox Straight Line Turntables "service manual is in German, so I have translated that part. I’m German, but @tablejockey Revox isn’t, they’re Swiss 😉)" bertel- Oops! Obvious I didn't type my thought out clearly, AND proofread before posting! I did mean Swiss(and German) ty... | |
| Speaker positioning and center image depth lanx0003- Reality is if you don't have dedicated space-whatever sounds good to your ears. Equal side/front wall distance introduce SQ concerns? | |
| Revox Straight Line Turntables Looks like a price point 80's product. Most info appears to be in German, guessing it doesn't have a built in phonoamp. Being German, maybe a little "better" or equal to a Pioneer "rack" unit from the same period. | |
| Speaker positioning and center image depth Addition to the Cardas diagram. Just plug in dimensions. I find something between this and room 1/3rd's works in my room. Both are going to have the speaker dominate the real estate. For dedicated rooms only. I have a pair of ML panels 8' out in ... | |
| U2 live. Music realism Brutal crowd up in here... U2 caught my attention for a brief moment-with "I will Follow" from the 1980 "Boy" album. Tapped out after hearing it 20/day on the radio. Then Bono had to start opening his mouth with his "opinion" on things. Now "c... | |
| Speaker positioning and center image depth Decent gear/speakers/recording are nothing without location,location and location. That also means necessary embellishment-damping/diffusion per ear/software(for the perfectionists). We see it in the systems section-some layouts are a travesty.... | |
| U2 live. Music realism YT video of a setup playing a live U2 concert...meh. Nothing heard that a $5K setup can't do. The owner has that in one speaker cable. | |
| Lessons of youth "Better yet, I've been talking to him about doing some minor 'upgrades' that he could afford but he's not really interested." Don't pollute an innocent mind and most definitely don't mention audio forums. | |
| A suitable cart and possible practical tweaks for a Rega Planar 3... Include the Audio Technica OC9 series in your search. Other than cart, time to consider a current generation Rega or something else. Modding that series of Rega is a waste of money that could go to a P6 which is considerably better. Used a modded... | |
| Scansonic MB-2.5B vs Sonus Faber Lumina III Based on the price point/choice, Scansonic appear to the more attractive choice based on spec/build/aesthetic. Lumina is in SF's "value" line and accordingly, is built as expected-offshore parts, maybe assembled in Italy? Haven't listened Luminam... |
