| Turntable/Arm in $1500-2000 Range Ron, I am ROFLMAO right now! You say that Expressimo has updated their Heavyweight with 2 rubber O-rings around it? Take a look at my virtual system, and click on the OL Silver tonearm, and then click on the small picture, to enlarge it to see the... | |
| Best Manufacturer's Website Features I'd like to have rapid access to product info, and rather not have to wait around for fancy animated graphics and Macromedia Flash displays to load. It is a waste of time.I want good photos, and easy access to the needed information. | |
| Looking to get TT Ron, I do have the first Captain Beyond album, and it's great. I have it on a mint Japanese pressing, and 2 original US 3D-cover copies. Also have a promo Sufficiently Breathless. They're both great.I also love BOC, and have these:Blue Oyster Cult... | |
| AR vs Cary vs Blue Circle vs... Highly recommend a Berning ZH270 ZOTL tube amp. Very neutral, extremely transparent, lightning fast, runs cool, very reliable, small size, plenty of power. Auto-biasing, just plug and play. $4500 new. Very tough to beat. | |
| Turntable/Arm in $1500-2000 Range All of those tables are good. It is very hard to say whether you will like one better than the other. If you pressed me for a recommendation, I'd say that since you like the British tables, then the Nottingham Spacedeck would offer a better sound ... | |
| Newbie cartidge help needed Psychicanimal likes the Groovemaster in his Technics. Check with him about it. | |
| MC Cartridge upgrade from Grado reference? I'd go with a ZYX R-100 Fuji for $2k. | |
| Time to get things straight. Gosh, I must have mellowed out some, since I first started posting here on Audiogon. Looks like I used to be a real hell-raiser. Lately I haven't been looking for too many arguments. | |
| Ok this will be a good thread. Thanks, Unclejeff. I almost forgot about this old thread. It was a tough battle. Only partly successful. But, that's the way things are around here. If you can get through to some of the people, you are doing well. | |
| Are monoblocks the way to go? There are some strong points to monoblocks. However, in the medium price range, you may be just as well off with a stereo amp. A well-made stereo amp can be just as transparent as monoblocks. The main advantage of monoblocks is reduced crosstalk, ... | |
| Looking to get TT Well, I was away from this thread for awhile, and didn't realize my name was being mentioned.First, I really have no desire to have a pissing contest at my house. My house is a genuine Appalachian log cabin, very small, and no typical amenities th... | |
| Shelter 501 questions/concerns I know 4yanx has good ears for sound. I think if David tells you something, you can take it to the bank. | |
| Shelter 501 questions/concerns I only voice concerns based upon trying to give conservative advise. I have heard of the Nottingham Space Arm, WB arms, and Graham 2.2 giving what the owners called good results with the 501. It is possible that your arm may work well also. I'm no... | |
| Have you tried the ART SLA-1 amp yet? Enough already with the ART SLA-1. So, it's a cheap amp. Big deal. Anybody who wants one can go buy it. If people really think that a $179 amp is their bag, fine. I've had threads pulled and denied before too. Nothing unique about that. As far as ... | |
| Are You Satisfied? I'm sticking with what I have for the time being. I always keep my gear for a pretty long time. I make some small upgrades and tweaks here and there, but I usually stay with my gear for several years. |
