| Linn Unidisc SC I own a Linn Ikemi and a McIntosh MX135 which uses most of the C45 in its pre-amp section. I tried the SC in a head to head with the Ikemi and there was no contest. I did the same in the dealers showroom and he even stated "well this is going back... | |
| advice on hiding cables If you are sure that the speakers will reside where you have them currently placed. I would consider mounting jacks in the wall or the floor if the basement is unfinished. You don't mention the distance. Can you ,if you definitely don't want to cu... | |
| If Audio bug never hit you, what hobby might have? I think I would have been a Sumo Ballarena for the Cuban Opera. Doing the "I Love Lucy 3rd Movement with the Ricky Riccardo Bongo solo" Or maybe a lawnmower guy. | |
| Choice Rega P5 or VPI Scout? As a Rega P25 owner and a VPI Scoutmaster hopeful. I can only suggest the VPI. Ther are better options for upgrading. The Rega is a good TT but the mindset of Rega is "our way is the only way". The lack of a dedicated ground wire, lack of RCA conn... | |
| Dirty Mary, Crazy Larry to be Released on DVD Wow and I thoughtg I was the only one who liked this movie. I just burned it to DVD off of satellite. So is Vanishing Point out on DVD yet? | |
| Velodyne Digital Drive Series subwoofer in stereo All I can tell you is I have DD12 in a 18 x 24 x 9 high room and one is more than enough. I would say the 2 DD10s would be plenty. | |
| Made rookie mistake w/soldering:need help Use and OHM Meter at each end of the wire to determine the run. | |
| Quality Linn Artikulat speakers? I agree with Ed, need the bucks and I am there. What great sounding speakers. Most Linn models sounded thin in bass and somewhat piercing in highs, but the Artikulats could produce no fault that I can hear. Just that they cost more than I can muster. | |
| Nitty Gritty I Don't Know How To Use Itty I used to "scrub" mine on an old SoundGaurd record mat that I have had for years. Then place the record upside down on the NG machine and vacuum it off. Only after about 3 months of that I sold it and bought a VPI 16.5. And now my life is less com... | |
| Cable question .... how good Cardas Golden Refe... Pretty much the same story here. Never tried AU24 but tried several before deciding on Cardas GRs. If you buy the used you save about 50%. My system is just about complete with the GRs and have never seena brand new pair. Look at usedcable.com, th... | |
| Do you remember your first cd? Dire Straits-Brothers in Arms it was free for joining BMG I didn't even have a player. Now I wanna get the SACD. | |
| Does digital affect analog sound?? Some say that digital equipment emits a "noise" that can affect analog. Obviously in your system it does. I have seen many power conditioners that isolate the analog from digital for this reason. | |
| Linn Ikemi with Tri-Vista DAC or Marantz SA-11 S1 I take you are talking about using the Tri-Vista as an outboard DAC. I would say that would make a great redbook player. I own a Ikemi and have been happy with the sound for years, I also use Cardas GR's and that did improve the satging an ddetail... | |
| BAT vs. Mcintosh? You know I don't recall ever being told. I was just told that is was the 2 channel version of virtually the same construction as the VK6200, which was what I would have been buying. ( I am tring to save some rack space ) But I would expect a 11K P... | |
| is the McIntosh MAC 3 surr.decoder sacd compatib? I had a MAC 3 years ago and traded up to a MCD4 but I don't remember if the MAC 3 had 6 analog inputs. I don't beleive it does. But your pre-amp must if you are using it. You will have to plug the SACD/DVD-A directly into the pre-amp. The mac 3 is... |
