| New preamp or up grade my cartridge and or phono amp? I'm probably going to go with a Rogue RP-1 and Schiit Bifrost 2 DAC. Thanks everyone for the suggestions and preamp info | |
| New preamp or up grade my cartridge and or phono amp? Streaming is actually something I am not interested in. I have about 850 albums on my music server. I've tried Tidal and Qobuz and barely used either one, no interest in checking out new music (I NEVER listen to the radio I have all the music I li... | |
| New preamp or up grade my cartridge and or phono amp? Thanks for the info soix. Any suggestions on a good preamp with HT capabilities other than the Rogue RP-1 or RP-5. I’m thinking the Parasound Hint P6 would put me in the circumstances as the Emotiva just w/out the HT stuff | |
| New preamp or up grade my cartridge and or phono amp? On a side note. With my friend moving his system out to the family room, not only has his wife started to enjoy listening to music more. He has had company over, seen his turntable and asked do albums really sound better. After playing albums and ... | |
| New preamp or up grade my cartridge and or phono amp? ghdprentice/zlone. I understand what you are saying. Though I have a friend who went that route and his listening room wound up isolating him from the rest of the household. He then integrated his 2CH system into the family room HT system. His wif... | |
| New preamp or up grade my cartridge and or phono amp? WAF means, EVERYTHING stays in the large family room, unless I put a 2 CH system in a small 9X9 bedroom. So the preamp would have to have a HT bypass. But I'm still kind of stuck on why the preamp is so important if I'm using the "Reference Mode"... | |
| New preamp or up grade my cartridge and or phono amp? Add on question. I understand that my AV preamp is a kind of jack of all trades unit what I don't really understand how a preamp would change anything if I'm using the reference mode on my AV preamp? | |
| PS Audio NuWave DAC I NEVER stream music. The DAC would be for use with the Bluesound vault. I used to use an Oppo 105 as a DAC, but I couldn’t hear a difference in SQ between it and the Emotiva XMC-1.I've had friends over to do some a/b testing (kind of blind). We a... | |
| Parasound 2125v2 causing speaker hum The problem was resolved by plugging the preamp, power amp and speakers into the same power conditioner | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Last night Dan Fogelberg, James Taylor, Lake Street Dive and Bill Evans (withEddie Gomez & Jack deJohnette)at the Montreux Jazz Festival. Not a big jazz fan but this album is so well recorded,limited edition 180 gram 45 speed. You can't help... | |

| New cartridge Thanks for all the advice. I decided to go with the Blue Point #3. Since I turned in my old blue point #2, I got a $100 rebate. So far I’m pretty happy with it. | |
| New cartridge My BP#2 is 15 years old time or a change. A friend let me borrow his Soundsmith Otello. Really liked how it sounded, but again the gain forced me to turn the volume up more than I’m comfortable with. Thought about the Denon, don’t know if my pho... |
