| What's been playing on your turntable and what turntable is it ? Queen's Greatest Hits - Hollywood Records... just bought it a week ago. Excellent recording. Heybrook TT2 /slightly modded LVX arm, Ring Mat and AT33PTG/II | |
| Which pair of speakers changed your Hifi life? In the fall of 1975 I listened to a pair of Dayton Wright XG-8 Mark III electrostatic speakers. They were being demoed at an audio store in Rochester, NY, Baez's 'Diamonds & Rust' was playing.... I thought on I was on a different planet. | |
| NAKAMICHI PA-7 & Klipsch safe and sound Well Moose, I have the PA-7A MKII amp with a CA-7A pre. The PA-7 series of NAK amps were a stasis bipolar design. Smooth in all frequencies with tight bass but I would not characterize them as 'tube like' or warm sounding. They run in class A ... | |
| Go get out your pitchforks, I’ve done a sacrilegious thing. . . @ Last_Lemming: You couldn't find the proper interconnects to do the job? | |
| After the thrill is gone @mapman Ohm Walsh speaker owners seldom have this problem. 😉 I've had my Walsh 4's since 1986. They've been re-foamed twice, internal batting has been re-tuned by yours truly, and lastly, since they are bottom vented, I've experimented with p... | |
| Thoughts on the Linn LP12 turntable I've always seen LP12's as a giant money pit with 'upgrades' that are actually 'fixes'. I have an all original Heybrook TT2 built in 1984 with an LVX tonearm. I've auditioned other tables at home with whatever cart I'm currently using (AT33PTG/I... | |
| Ohm Acoustic Corp., Brooklyn NY @veemike , FYI: I bought my OHM Walsh 4's in 1986, they were store demos built in 1984, back then OHM had dealers.. They've been refurbished twice by OHM (1998 & 2021); they still sound as good now as they did when I first heart them back in... | |
| Adcom 545 MKII Amp...A "Pop "Sound The problem can be caused by many things, but input differential transistors going out of mismatch is the most common, followed by fading resistors in the feedback and/or input impedance. Also a problem is an electrolytic capacitor in the feedbac... | |
| Technics SL-1500C or SL-1210GR Absolutely fabulous sounding; Told ya. | |
| Technics SL-1500C or SL-1210GR Out with Volare and Series Six, and in with SL-1210GR. I plowed some of the difference into a Ortofon Quintet Black S. Good rational decision. | |
| Technics SL-1500C or SL-1210GR @hedgehog I recently purchased a P3/Ania combo... it was no match for what I already had (have) Heybrook TT2/LVX/AT33PTG/II, so I sold it pronto. That said there is solid engineering and no BS in the Technics line, and of all their current mode... | |
| Technics SL-1500C or SL-1210GR I like the simplicity of the SL-1500C, but Technics should skipped the phono stage in my opinion The SL-1500C has two pairs of RCA outlets; one for the built in phono stage and one that totally bypasses the phono stage. Buy it. | |
| Does carpet deaden the sound too much? I have bottom ported OHM Walsh 4's sitting on carpet in a well damped room. End result is accurate but not very dynamic sound. When speakers are placed on 16"X16" acrylic bases the sound changes dramatically; dynamic sound and considerable mor... | |
| Transmission line speakers! I own T+A Criterion 2100 TL speakers Now those are true TL speakers. In the late 70's I owned Infinity Monitor Jr.'s; they had varying densities of cotton batting inside the cabinet and Infinity called them a TL design. I always felt they wer... | |
| What makes the biggest difference in sound quality? When making changes or adding things to your system, what makes the bigger difference in sound quality on preamp‘s and power amps? Interconnects, speaker cables, power cords, or fuses? Key phrase is 'making changes': save your money and just to... |
