Throughly disappointed with my new Yamaha A-3000 Integrated.......
My A-S3000 started shutting down a couple of weeks ago. It went into protection mode a week ago and has remained there. I called Yamaha and they are sending me a box so I can ship it to a repair center in NY. Hopefully it will function properly ag... 
Herron VTPH-2A Phono Preamp....anyone familiar?
@chakster dude, have you heard the Yamaha? Have you read any reviews that compare it to other high end stuff that it blows away? Can you afford it? I'm guessing the answer is no.  
Herron VTPH-2A Phono Preamp....anyone familiar?
Exactly, even in the line level pre-amp or power amp.In a phono stage can be more problematic, especially for LOMC cartridges.If you want a very special phono stage for low impedance LOMC then check Current Mode (Current Injection) type of phono s... 
Herron VTPH-2A Phono Preamp....anyone familiar?
If you think your system sounds great, why not just stick with it? Keep in mind that if you go with tubes, you may end up going down the "rabbit hole", spending countless hours and dollars looking to get the lowest noise and highest performing tub... 
Why so many angry audiophiles?
Absolutely! For the last two years I've had the excitement of a teenager with their first stereo. I got mine out from a 15 year hibernation. As I sit her tonight, listening to a very clean UK first pressing of Led Zeppelin III, I realize life coul... 
Herron VTPH-2A Phono Preamp....anyone familiar?
Can anyone describe what I might be able to expect by adding the Herron VTPH-2A to my system? I'm currently running a Denon DP-62L TT with the straight black tonearm wand, Grace F-9 cart with SoundSmith Nude Ruby OCL stylus, Yamaha A-S3000 integra... 
Herron VTPH-2A Phono Preamp....anyone familiar?
I'm very interested in the Herron. I've also been looking at the ModWright 9.0. Which way is best to go? I don't plan on buying another phono preamp in my lifetime, I want to make the right choice. 
Auditioned Magico A3 - VERY DARK...
Yeah, the broker I bought the A3's from said they need AT LEAST 300-400 hours of break in. That's a lot of albums! I typically listen to 1-3 albums at most in a sitting. Although with new speakers I suspect that number will go up! Now I'm thinking... 
YAMAHA A S-3000 INTEGRATED AMPLIFIER REVIEW
I've owned my A-S3000 for a 1.5 years. I love it. The looks of it are more pleasing to me than any other amp I've seen. Perhaps the Dan D'Agostino Momentum amp is up there too but I'm not prepared to spend that kind of money.Given the price of the... 
Whats on your turntable tonight?
Bob James/Earl Klugh One On One, Two Of A Kind, Bill Evans Sunday At The Village Vanguard. 
Auditioned Magico A3 - VERY DARK...
I ordered a pair of A3's last week. I heard a pair last year and it was as if I'd never heard good sound before! I asked how many speakers are we listening to? Two. Is that a tube amp? Nope SS. Is there a sub woofer hooked up? Nope. They were hook... 
Don't like vinyl
It's hard for me to imagine my system without a turntable. There are so many things that go into it. Getting the albums, cleaning them, the TT, the tone arm, the cartridge, setting all of those things up properly, upgrading, treating the room. In ...
