Analog system under 500 palyer and phono pre-amp NAD PP2 or PP3 (if you want to burn lps) | |
Looking to upgrade my setup. I like NAD integrated amps for budget systems. There are plenty of used units to choose from. As for speakers, if you keep your sub, I suggest staying with bookshelves because they are more fexible. Look at NHT (super zeros) or Usher's. They seem ... | |
Best Record You Have Ever heard Alison Krauss Live | |
Musical cd plyer under 1k I second the NAD | |
does a stylus retip makea cartridge as good as new You might be better off getting a new one depending on the cost. I bought a $200 Clearaudio and broke it during set up (Doh!). Its $175 to replace. I would rather spend another few bucks and get a new one, which i did. Orotofon Blue, and it sounds... | |
Good sub $100 cartridge for Thorens TD 160 I have used a Orotofon Blue and Bronze. I bet the Red is really nice for $100. I wouldnt give it another thought and go for the Red. | |

HELP-woofer moves alot when playing lps Thanks for the responses. I purchased the KAB filter. I dont believe isolation is an issue-the TT is well isolated. Also, the tonearm manufacture believes cart/arm mismatch is not the issue. The arm and cart are both medium mass/compliance and sho... | |
New Vinyl - "scratchy"? Maybe it needs to play a few times. I have read statements on older MFSL pressings indicating MFSL records will sometimes exhibit ticks and pops on the first few plays because the records are not "dehorned" at the factory, done in an effort to pre... | |
Are there any albums you consider perfect? Nirvana NevermindBeatles (pick one)Van Morrison MoondanceLed Zeppelin 1-4 | |
HELP-woofer moves alot when playing lps Yogiboy-How do I address the mismatch? Should I get a different cartridge? Thanks. | |
HELP-woofer moves alot when playing lps Dan_ed I suspect you are correct that it is NOT cart/arm mismatch (its rega and clearaudio). If I ignor the issue, wont the woofers be damaged by too much pumping? |
