| 2021 audio system wish list Well, as I suspected I would, I replaced my decades old Arkiv B phono cartridge with a Kandid. What I unexpectedly did s well was sell my info 1 power supply and substituted, in its place, a Lingo 4. And since late winter I have been into streamin... | |
| Streaming transport suggestions Addressing several responses* multi-room isn't a factor* will not consider a server (and don't appreciate a dealer ignoring what I said and trying to upsell me)* My M1 doesn't have the ethernet option* The M5 doesn't appear to be a plug and... | |
| Rega Planar 3: Is the Exact a significant upgrade from the Elys 2? The Exact cartridge is interesting- its low end is robust but it's not a cartridge noted for nuance. It is better than the Elys, but probably not worth the price difference. And yes, I once owned an Exact which I bought new at 50% off list. I woul... | |
| Is There Any Reason To Buy A Reel-To-Reel Machine Nowadays?? I have absolutely no need - not even .1%, for a reel to reel. But I remember back in the 70’s when I was starting my audio journey, no serious audio guy was without a reel to reel. It’s damned cool, albeit useless. A relative has a 50 plus yr old ... | |

| Bluetooh I own the audioengine B1. Given a higher bitstream (at least 256 kbps), it sounds pretty good. | |
| Mods which don't harm re-sale Richard Modaferri’s mods to McIntosh tuners certainly increase resale value | |
| If your were to assemble a vintage system ? Inna Said $1500 isn’t moneythat’s in part the point | |
| If you hopped into your time machine and brought back audio gear- what would it be? Way back when, I was at a store that was going out of business.They had two Marantz 10b tuners. They wanted $1200 for both. Should have grabbed them, or at least made an offer on buying one of them. Silly me- | |
| If you hopped into your time machine and brought back audio gear- what would it be? Yeah I guess me too | |
| Any Linn LP12 owners in So Cal get the Karousel bearing upgrade? I had a Kore installed in 2015 and the Karousel in 2020, so permit me a few words. The single biggest bang for the buck improvement I have ever heard on my 23 years old LP12 has been the Karousel. | |
| Did Nixon Erase My Tape? Your header grabbed my attention as my first thought is that many would not have a clue what the Nixon and erased tapes reference was. That I know means that I also lived through an era of amazing music- |
