Help me improve Rega P2 Trust your ears and instinct, JMG 1949. They are telling you that back then, you were listening to a better turntable. An Ariston RD-11s is a better source than aRega P2. This is true anyday of the week. So naturally,even though you cannot pinpoin... | |
Linn Basik LVX vs. Rega RB 303 I recently replaced the AR/Jelco LVX arm on my AR ES-1 turntable with a stock Rega RB300. My AR arm is equipped with a Music Metre tonearm cable. The stock Rega arm does not have the soaring highs I got with the AR/Jelco LVX; but in every other ar... | |
To Tube or not to Tube...... All I can say is, Curiosity killed THIS Cat. I was pretty much like you. I had an older Audio Research D120 ss amp that was recommended to me by a dealer (thanks Tim!) over newer and more expensive ARC products. With this amp hooked up to my Berni... | |
Rega Arm mods-is it really woth t it? LOL! Chayro, there is so much written about mods for Rega tonearms that it almost seems as if this is an absolute requirement for these arms; hence my initial inquiry about doing this. I dissagree about waiting a year to get grip of the sonic sign... | |
Rega Arm mods-is it really woth t it? Ok, I guess I should give it more time as I have only had the thing for two weeks. I will try out a different counterweight and start looking at a cartridge upgrade. Somebody say Grace? | |
ARC D-115: What tubes and cables? Davef, Thanks for the Nordost recommendation! | |
ARC D-115: What tubes and cables? Yes!-Sorry for not being specific on the issue- The RS wires was one of those things that simply clicked with my system, and I was really surprised by this. And NO,they do not work well with the D-115. (It is a Mk 2 Hifi Geek).Here is my System:Mo... | |
ARC D-115: What tubes and cables? Goldeneraguy, I was using Radio Shack 18ga solid core cabling with the D-120. (No kidding). So Purist seems like a gigantic leap. Any other sugestions? | |
ARC D-115: What tubes and cables? Thanks guys, this is the first tube amp that I've owned.Prior to this, I was using an ARC D-120 that simply got outof the way and made my Proacs really sing. However this is an entirely different beast! (LOL) | |
Help with Modified Audible Illusions Modulus 3 First instinct is to say, WTF; as AI interiors are a thing of beauty. This one sure ain't! However, on a second look it seems as if they by-passed some circuitry. Do all the switches work? | |
Nude Turntable Project Thanks, HiHo,Your thoughts and this thread as a whole has really motivated me to revive this table.I fixed the tonearm weight today and will solder a broken wire tonight.Long Live Analog! | |
Nude Turntable Project OK Guys, so what about the TT-71 aka JVC QL-7/7A? I have one sitting unused for a while with a cracked dustcover and a sagging tonearm counterweight which I bought for $35.00.I know it is not a QL-8 or 10, but... | |
Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Wow, what a great thread. However, no mention so far that Goldmund and Micro-Seiki used JVC core motors. Anyone care to elaborate on this? | |
which ProAc speaker? Well, I tried out my Berning preamp with an Audio Research solid state amp at a Dealer recently, using Dynaudio Focus speakers. The sound was clean, but too forrward and veering on brightness for my taste. I then took the amp home for further list... | |
Gale 401a speakers One of the most jaw-dropping systems I ever heard was wayback around 1984.It was comprised of a Linn LP-12/Syrinx PU2/ Supex 900 front-end, Berning T-10 preamp, Threshold 300 amp, and of all things, Gale 401 speakers.Simply unbelievable! |
