| Experience with the NAD M5....... Another thought might be repair of the Modwright in UK ? | |
| Best budget DIN phono cable? Too many to choose I bought the Ultimate Cable , and it is nice quality. I have not used it yet. I also liked his cable design explanation. You can buy from his web site, or he sells on Audiogon. Mine seemed a bit cheaper, but is the straight DIN. Ultimate only make... | |
| refurbished NAD M5 vs new SCD-XA5400ES Yes The M5 has balanced out, as the M3 Integrated has balanced in. I forgot about the HDCD, and HDCD is not totally dead. The latest Gold Cd releases from Audio Fidelity, mastered by Steve Hoffman are HDCD. My guess is they both have strengths, an... | |
| refurbished NAD M5 vs new SCD-XA5400ES They are probably both good choices. The NAD Master Series stuff is great, very well reviewed. I own the M5 and love it. I bought new, you only loose one year of warranty on refurbished. I am hearing good stuff on the new Sony also, I have no way ... | |
| Adcom GTP or GFP No I have not compared the two, but would agree at least on paper, and the preverbial "it costs more so it must sound better", that the GFP 750 is a much more of a quality peice. | |
| Adcom GTP or GFP I had one of the GTP 500II I believe was the model. It was a nice preamp, fully featured, including phono I believe. The tuner was pretty decent, and did a better job of picking up stations compared to other receivers that I had previously used. T... | |
| Possibile new Integreated recomendation I am surprised to see anyone mention the NAD Master Series M3, as it rarely gets mentioned. For a Class A rated product from Stereophile never to get mentioned much is amazing. Even if you believe the ratings are BS, it usually gets more talk then... | |
| sony scd-777 dac vs PS Audio DLIII DAC Dave sure does seem to like that Sony, and based on everything he has owned, I won't argue with him ! I agree on all the mods and DACS, and have never went there myself either. I am currently happy with my NAD M5 Master Series SACD/CD, seems to wo... | |
| VPI hw19jr Audioquest PT-8 arm G-ring 1042 cart Hi, I hate that triangle cover, and actually even VPI, I was told thinks the table is better without it ? Plus it is easier to move the belt for a speed change. I also think it looks cleaner without it. It was there to protect the pulley, but I be... | |
| who needs a cd player anymore Well every time I read posts like this about anything going obsolete, I like to post a link to an article, by a well known audio writer. I cannot find it right now. But this was a real serious article that even gave a time frame, that has come and... | |
| Can "Digital" damage my gear? I have had some BIG pops on an LP, that I would worry more about then anything digital ? | |
| I seek your guidance - re turntable There you as I said at the beginning, I through my 2 cents in with the used VPI HW-19, at $400-700(depending on variations) that would leave you plenty of scratch to spend on a nice cartridge, and still be under $1200.00.And you also got the SL120... | |
| I seek your guidance - re turntable If it were me, I would look at a used VPI HW-19 JR or MKIII. Both would do a nice job for $400-700 bucks. Most likely would have either a Audioquest or Rega arm. Always coming and going on Audiogon, there are a lot of them out there. Of course you... | |
