| Help with hiss Try a cheater plugs on the Amps and Preamp. Cheater = 3 prong to 2 prong adapter. | |
| Wayne's Audio Turntable Periphery Stabilizing Outer Ring Clearaudio Outer Limits is an alternative. I have one on a second system deck and it works dandy. The spider alignment tool is a bit quirky to use. On the main table I use a VPI Periphery Ring which works just dandy as it is designed to be used wi... | |
| Goodbye Everyone Farewell kind sir. Perhaps Audiocircle or AK would be a preferable home? | |
| How should I upgrade? A new preamp with a phono stage or just a phono preamp? The Audible Illusions M3A is a fantastic unit. I owned one some years ago with the MM Phono stage. The lack of a remote control was the deal breaker at the time. The AI L3A/B has a remote yet no phono stage. Chances are, you will not be disappoin... | |

| Dac: Old vs New Perhaps a DAC with a tube output is in order? Something way different sounding may just be what the doctor ordered. | |
| what are your top "audio bargins" in your system history? ”what are your top "audio bargins" in your system history?” Any POOGE unit. Recently sold a Van Alstine modified Magnavox CD player and purchased a Decware modified unit. One great unit sold, another great unit purchased. Also the Hafler... | |

| More Bass Legacy Signature 3 owner here. Does your speakers have the switches on the backside to turn off and on the rear firing tweeters? Maybe play with those switches a bit and see if it helps. Read the manual first. They may be in an undesirable positio... | |
| 2 for 1 or the PS Audio upgrade route? SACD, I suppose, is required. Currently own 2 or 3 of them. Listen to them once or twice a year. It’s tough to lay down 20$ and up for one SACD when cds are essentially being given away for pennies on the dollar. | |
| Do I Need a New DAC? Recently, I purchased a dac with a dead optical input. Popped the lid and wrote down the receiver number. This was an rx176. Ordered from Ali baba. Unsolder old part. Install new part and solder. If uncomfortable doing that, parts connexion wou... | |
| 2 for 1 or the PS Audio upgrade route? Thank you for the first hand experience. The Marantz seems to be a solid unit based upon what I’ve read. | |
| Linn Sondek Phono Preamp If the tube sound is what you seek Space Tech Labs produces high quality gear at “reasonable” prices. I currently own a unit with the outboard Super Rectifier. The sound is unbelievable. The only caveats being MM or high output MC only and single ... |
