| Allaerts down-repair or ?? Gave a couple calls out to a few dealers.Was able to pick up an Allaerts Eco at a good price.That should keep me spinning vinyl,until the first one comes back.I know that I have thoroughly enjoyed this cartridge and did not want to experiment with... | |
| Help Best 5-disc cd-changer........... Have had good success with the Citypulse Da 7.2x with TXCO clock upfrade.(www.audiomagus.com>>$469).It would also allow use of a Z-Systems RDQ/RDP unit down the road. | |
| Greatful Dawg; Jerry Garcia & Dave Grisman In agreement with the above postings.Also bought the "pizza',but prefer the earlier collaborations-Enjoy! | |
| Speaker cables for mid and high Agree with Stanwal 100%. | |
| O/B Speakers I built a pair of DIYs.The woofer is the biggest question to solve.I heard the Peerless XLS work very well in this type configuration.I used a plate-amp for my bottom end,to make it an easier load for my PL2.Be sure to address phase-alignment,as t... | |
| Tube preamp choice to upgrade a Pass Labs X1 I hold the First Sound Deluxe units in high regard.Very straight forward and easy to tube-roll.one per channel.Sound is very open and character is easily heard when tube changes are made. | |
| OK to remove Tweeter Grill?? Blueskiespbd,That can effect the tonal balance.I learned that from the VSA VR-6s.I was told to raise the rear/ambient tweeter until it begabn to effect the stability of the soundstage/ imaging,then reduce slightly.It was a very low level and can b... | |
| great sounding DVD Movies, anyone? While I liked Spidermab III,I thought II was better,especially when Doc Oct was firing up his machine for the first-time.How about Wallace &Grommett-Curse of.Very interesting effect when the machine got reversed,then smashed.Pink Floyd in Pompei? | |
| A weird thing happened to my Red Wine Audio 30.2.. I understand system synergy.But had you thought about the fact that your RWA unit had been plugged into your system for a longer period.I do not begin an evaluation until a unit has had time to "settle in".Which I guess-timate to be about 3 days. ... | |
| Is Mc a step up on the prima luna's? The fulness/bass performance with the PLs' stock tubes is okay.There are other 12ax/au's that will rectify these short-comings.The Shuguang triple-mica 12ax7s and the Mazda/Radio Technique french military (triple mica) 12au7s.Google search will re... | |
| Dialogue II noise level I don't believe you will have noise issues with the Dialogue/Prologue Primalunas.Unless they need a re-tube.Have heard both and they aren't noisy,nor tube hiss. | |
| OK to remove Tweeter Grill?? Had you thought about experimenting with different fabrics or materials around the tweeter element? Or raising the height of the speaker to adjust its' balance-more mid/bass less tweeter energy. | |
| Looking for guidance with older VPI HW-19 tables Mingles,please keep us informed as to your progress in this matter.Regards,Tom | |
| Rebuilding ESS AMT series crossover. Budkoss, I would suggest substituting crossover parts with wiring installed with alligator clips.I did this when modifying/building two sets of speakers.It is amazing the difference changing out a single component can make.I learned quite a bit ab... | |
| Outstanding brands? When the midrange/lower mids/upper mid bass is produced properly,it is easier for the "brain" to relax and not have to interpret.Thus the constant mental/spiritual or mind/heart dilemma is put to rest.Just my two cents-take it as you will. |
