| Speaker cable recommendations in my budget Thanks for the link. I thought “making them” meant I’d be braiding wires, shrink wrapping covers over a bunch of wires & measuring spacing of braid lengths or other horrifying complex things. I might just try it but, I’m kinda unhandy. Than... | |
| Speaker cable recommendations in my budget How would I make my own? I see all these descriptors like “cryo treated” & all kinds of other “balanced” & treatments. Seems way above my head. | |
| Speaker cable recommendations in my budget Thanks that’s really helpful. | |
| Curious about the difference in what I’d hear on different tonearms Thank you, for helping me understand this better. I appreciated your comments. | |
| Curious about the difference in what I’d hear on different tonearms That’s why I don’t ask mAny questions. I try & make questions very specific & usually ask for no extraneous personal stuff. And, I always get those comments & people pontificating about my question & then recommending a $10k option... | |
| Curious about the difference in what I’d hear on different tonearms I must not have been clear. I’m not looking to change my arm. I want to learn what upgrading clearly gives you soundwise. Thats the only reason I said stay within Rega... no other variables are introduced.... just whatever the upgrade is. That wa... | |
| Why no “Break in” period? Thanks for all your thoughts related to my question. I really do appreciate all the knowledge you all pass on. | |
| Phono stage for my system? I got back into vinyl a yr ago & had the same feeling. I bought a Jolida JD-9 on this sight & I love it. I think it was $900 & purchased on this site. | |
| A Ghost in the System? Music Thru Speakers with Preamp Disconnected This reminded me of something that really truly happens with my system. I don’t think it matters but I have a Denon AVR 4806 ~10 yrs old & we have outside speakers. Although no one is allowed to touch it, once a yr sound starts coming out of ... | |
| What are the best speakers you have ever owned and why? I recently had a pair of Infinity Kappa 8.1’s. The soundstage was enormous, So, (depending on the recording quality) you could not only place an instrument left to right but, forward to backward. I have very nice speakers now. But, 3ft high will ... | |
| Mounting a cartridge Thanks loki1957. I called Brian this morning. He had time & I’m listening to albums now. He’s a great guy & was very willing to teach me as he went along. Between all the recommendations here, videos & Brian this was a great learnin... | |
| Mounting a cartridge Lewm, I have a force gauge & I got a protractor off Amazon. I mounted the old cartridge. I just hear so many people say at this level & above, how precise mounting is both tricky & an absolute requirement. I don’t want diminish the car... | |
| Recommendations for an MC cart on Audiogon Before this becomes a fist fight... I made my decision & bought the Lyra Delos that was listed on Audiogon. I checked that my RB250 would be workable. He said it’s a great starter-ish arm & would work great. I have Rega spacers.i also c... | |
| Recommendations for an MC cart on Audiogon Thanks everyone. I a deal on the Lyra Delos here. I’m ecstatic with it & because I was starting to to into “Analyis Paralysis”.youve all been very generous with you knowledge. I post my experience once the cartridge has settled in. | |
| Recommendations for an MC cart on Audiogon Thanks everyone. From a comment here, Aris & a pm it’s seems the 17D3 can be very a finicky install because of the short Cantilever. The pm said even though the next upgrade is my ta (6-10 mos) my Rega RB 250 may not work well (bc short cantil... |
