| Entry Level Turntable-- Preamp Matching I like your music.A closing comment: IMO, as one invests more money in high end audio, the rewards become less and less. In other words, the point of diminishing returns kicks in, and it becomes increasingly more expensive to acheive better sound. | |
| Intro system budget problem Let us know how you like everything | |
| Whats a good Amplifier for Energy Veritas 2.4i? I have the MF and like it alot. You might also consider McCormack DNA .5 which is very musical. | |
| Need help using MC cartridge with my Marantz Amp Is the Bellari new? Maybe there is a problem with it-try exchanging it. But first try grounding the TT or phono stage. Also, place the Bellari as far away as possible from the amp. Good luck. | |
| Van Halen, baby Dave's father was a MD | |
| Help Me Name a New Band Moose knuckle? | |
| Intro system budget problem Cheers! | |
| New Speaker Stands? They are also very short: 3" or 8". My current speakers are on 24" stands. | |
| Small Room Speakers I like my small speakers: Usher 718's | |
| Intro system budget problem I would opt for the Peachtree iDecco. It has rec'd great reviews and has a DAC for your computer audio files. NAD is also a good choice but the Peachtree gives you a good sounding DAC. | |
| Which LPs are on your permanent rotation? Soundfan-Ziggy is on my perm rotation as well. I have the MFSL version and a UK version. I prefer the MoFi. I will look for an original pressing. | |
| Best speakers for Vintage Marantz 2220B? I used Klipsch KG4's with an old Marantz and it sounded great. The KG4's are in Klipsch's older "classic" series of spearkers. Very efficient and musical. | |
| banana plugs or not? Agree- bare wire is the best. However, i use bananas because thats how my wires came. | |
| Usher BE718 or Spendor SA1 I have the Ushers and love them. Very natural sound for a small speaker. You will need to factor in good speaker stands too. | |
| Entry Level Turntable-- Preamp Matching Dont be bummed-the Phonomena II is a great unit. I think you will notice the improvement over the V-LPS. |
