The Great Vinyl Debate Koegz, what question is it that you are referring to? It seems like I hit a nerve with you which is unfortunate. All I can say is I hope to God that your Walker tracks much better than what I have heard listening to music in this hobby of ours. It... | |
The Great Vinyl Debate Audiofeil, I do not disagree with your comment regarding my table, but I hoestly cannot remember listening to a table that was set up to the point where there was no degradation in sound. I have heard a few that I could certainly live with, but th... | |
The Great Vinyl Debate Koegz, I can only go by what I hear and have heard and I have heard quite a bit in the last 25 years. If I am wrong, why do they make newer records with tracks only to about 75% of the record surface? I have been at it for over a year and I still ... | |
The Great Vinyl Debate IME, the biggest contributor to tracking error is the tonearm/Cartridge combination. Alignment on my table is as good as it will get. I have the MintLP and it has greatly aided in my alignment. However, I think a great tonearm is needed to take it... | |
ARC LS25 mkII noise level The only way to know is to use your own ears. To my ears, it is not even close. In your case, maybe there is something going on inside of the pre that is not right. I love the sound of tubes but I have been turned of by the noise, especially from ... | |
The Great Vinyl Debate I expect the arm and cartridge to track the same throughout the record from the first track to the last and I have never heard that on any table I have heard regardless of cost. I am talking about $20,000,00 tables. It is better on these tables an... | |
The Great Vinyl Debate I hear ya. New vinyl is not really analog anyways. It is mostly digitally mastered. So, the question is why would I take a digital source, and try to convert it to analog? Seems silly to me. I like the old tape hiss of old recordings. Record cutti... | |
ARC LS25 mkII noise level What you are hearing is precisely why I have changed over to a solid state preamp. I have the tubes in the amp. It is even more troubling when listening to a tube phono preamp. The tube noise of the phono signal is very noticible. I prefer solid s... | |
Amp for Harbeth 7ES3 the mc275 would probably be a great choice and is a great amp. I hardly think you will find much of an argument in that regard price for performance. | |
Cowboy Junkies on Classic Records Trinity Sessions I like the original better | |
Most achingly-beautiful music To Love is to Bury - Cowboy Junkies Trinity Sessions. The song makes me feel grateful for what I have. | |
SA11 S2 SACD player. I'm listening to more CDs I agree with Foster | |
solid state vs tubes I actually like it better opposite. I did not originally. I was always told tubes in the preamp and solid state amp. Good solid state preamps are much quieter than tubes and render more inner detail, at least in my case. I cannot find good tubes q... | |
solid state vs tubes I am yet to hear a solid state amp that really sounds like a tube amp. There are some really great solid state amp out there though. | |
Power amp to pair with McIntosh C-28? mc275 amplifier |
