| Upgrade from Technics 1200 MK2? $1-$1.5k budget Is the 750D or the 750L the right arm for the 1200? | |
| Best Cartridge for technics sl1200mk2 I believe that I spent some time with the Zu 103 on the Sumiko headshell on the Technics tonearm. I then put the SME 309 arm on with the Zu and it was a very noticeable jump up. I'm now playing around with a Rega arm. | |
| Step up from AT150MLX on Technics 1200 I have the AT 150MLX (which I still cycle in on occasion). I replaced it with the Zu DL 103. I think that the Zu 103 is a fantastic cartridge. Super musical. Very engaging. Well worth the money but still within a 'reasonable' price point. | |
| Best Cartridge for technics sl1200mk2 I have been using the AT150MLX and the Zu Audio modded Denon 103 for years on a 1200. Both sound fantastic. The AT is certainly a bit less finicky and will work with a wider arrary of phono stages. The Zu 103, however, is a thing of beauty -- very... | |
| KEF LS50 I am using Kimber 8TCs with my LS50s and love them. They replaced a set of DHLabs T-14s (which have been my back ups for eons) and are bigger and more detailed than them. | |
| KEF LS50 Has anyone found a good match in terms of speaker cables? I have played around a bit but have not settled yet. I'm really loving what these speakers can do. | |
| TECHNICS SL1200 MKII.......THE REAL FACTS I found this (and some familiar old characters) and thought that I might spur a conversation about good cartridge matches. I have been running my 1210 with an SME 309 tonearm for a few years now--while not an expert, I do love the combination I en... | |
| Leben Owners: which speakers do you use? I have to add that I am really liking the Quad 22L2's with the Leben. I had originally heard them with a Synthesis el84 amp and thought the sound was worth exploring. The Quads are a great match and super affordable for what they do. I am the afor... | |
| Which monitors for my tube system in a large room? I recently went on a hunt for speakers for my room. I started with the Leben that you have. I ended up with two very different sets (kind of a long story how that happened). I got the Audio Note AN-K's and the Quad 22L2s. I listened to the AN-Es a... | |
| Dynaudio Excite X12 v Triangle Comete v ? I also feel like I should throw the Proacs (it seems like there are a few in my price range) in. They might also play nicely with my Leben integrated. | |
| Downgrading from Rega P5, what next? I sold my p2 when my twins turned 2. I went down the Technics 1200 route. I think that the Technics is a bit more rugged than the Rega. There is also a decent number of people that offer upgrade paths. I currently have my power outboard and have a... | |
| New Zu Mission cable I too have really noticed an improvement with the Missions. I bought two long RCA runs to replace weaker cables in my system (you can visit some of my older threads where I deliberated about moving my rack back between my speakers and using shorte... | |
| Zu Soul Superfly So I have had the Leben 300XS up and running for around three days now, and it is spectacular. If anyone is looking for a good match, this is a great one. It is a great performer across the board. I would still say that the Miniwatt is a great per... | |
| Zu Soul Superfly That makes sense. | |
| Zu Soul Superfly I've talked to them a bit recently. They are having some issues displaying the prices based on location on their website so they are displaying European pricing. The $1500 for the Omen is the European price (I'm almost sure). The Omen is the $1000... |
