| Synergistic Red Fuse ... I preferred you when you were Tommy... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... But your irony is lost on (pretty much) everyone here. | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Hahahaha. Doesn't get more serious than that. | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Geoff, like I say, I appreciate your sense of humour, but it's costing people money. Stop it. | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... The issue is this: People new to our hobby might read this thread in the future and get hopelessly caught up in your nonsense, spending ludicrous amounts of money on BS, fuses being the thin edge of the wedge. Your stance is unethical. | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Ain't wasting time! This is fun for us. | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... I should point out to Geoff/Tommy, before he attacks me, that I love his performance art; it's provided many chuckles. (Dark Matter Paint. Ha! That had me giggling for days. Seriously. Very, very funny.) | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... There are tests on the Harbeth website that suggest once you match any given SS power amp to its speakers within its power limitations, the difference in sound to an equivalent SS brand once you match volume levels to within 0.2 dB is minimal. The... | |

| Analog playback on computer. I've been getting my feet wet in computer audio lately and have been impressed by what's possible. Recording my vinyl from preamp into MacBook using Audacity, then playing it back via Audirvana Plus through a Dac Destroyer into Sony MDR-1R headpho... | |
| Ortofon Red vs. Ortofon Blue Nope, I have OCD, and the cartridge was perfectly set up. Maybe it was a bad stylus, who knows, but it definitely had IGD. The Blue on the same table did not. | |
| Ortofon Red vs. Ortofon Blue Yeah, true. Ragged is the wrong adjective. It's ragged on worn records on the inner grooves is what I meant, whereas the Blue is always smooth. Considering how long a stylus lasts I think the Blue, for the sake of an extra hundred bucks or so, rep... | |
| Ortofon Red vs. Ortofon Blue They have a similar sound but the Red is slightly ragged and has bad inner groove distortion. The Blue has no IGD and sounds more refined. It will also play worn records which are unlistenable with the Red. Totally worth it if you have lots of sec... |
