| Phono interconnect under $500 used I've had the Tricon, the connectors are awful and wonky ground leads!I just got the Furutech ($500 new) and it has great connectors with reasonable ground leads. it sounds very good, possibly better than the Tricon. | |
| Well Tempered Amadeus owners Also, I would like to say my Chinese amp has better fit n finish and build quality than any piece of Made in the USA/UK gear I have had. | |
| Well Tempered Amadeus owners I seem to be the only person in the world who breaks a belt every 3 weeks. That is my only complaint. If you get a GTA, the quality of the plinth is way better than the standard Amadeus. | |
| The usual suspects: S1, Cirrus, Tempesta, MMM1 I have the Cirrus and Tempesta now. the Tempesta only have a week on them at the moment and the Cirrus have about 300hrs. the Tempesta may have a bigger bottom end (more, not necessarily deeper) and I think the midrange is a bit more detailed. you... | |
| Is the Townshend Rock 7 "the" giant killer? I think I am going to have to try out the Rock 7 at some point. | |
| My turntable hates Cat Stevens it's nothing to do with you. I have the exact same thing and I thought it was a known fact that some of the vocals on this album where a bit hot? | |
| The usual suspects: S1, Cirrus, Tempesta, MMM1 "you must have the stands because the x-over is stuffed into the base of the stand"Incorrect. My Cirrus have the x-over in a separate compartment at the bottom of the speaker and I use my own stands. | |
| The usual suspects: S1, Cirrus, Tempesta, MMM1 "I haven't heard the Cirrus, but a Cirrus owner has been here and heard my Tempestas. He was a bit embarrassed to admit the Tmepestas were notably better"Really? I find it hard to believe there would be this level of difference, no matter which on... | |
| Got my Berlin Mini's today Djanggo - exactly. | |
| Got my Berlin Mini's today how come there is no completed listing on ebay anytime recently for a pair of these? I wanted to see which ones you got. | |
| Zesto Andros PS-1 Tubes Pops, you make no sense. | |
| Zesto Andros PS-1 Tubes I've mentioned this to Cfluxa already, but I've compared the stock JJ ECC83s with the JJ ECC803s and heard very little to no difference. I liked the sound of the Gold Lions in my Chinook and wouldn't mind trying those in the Zesto. Smatsui, did yo... | |
| Most important vinyl component to upgrade first ? 3/4, 1, 5, 2 | |
| Turntable setup under $2000? You could get a Well Tempered Simplex with a Denon 103R for $2300 and I'm confident it would trounce those other tables you tried. People give me grief for it, but when I had my fully tricked out Rega P5 "harsh" is exactly how I described it. It's... | |
| Rega P5 w/Denon 103R what should I upgrade to? your cart is capable of amazing things, that is not the source of your problem. I would look into getting a better table as a starting point. |
