| Manufacturer Repairs? What is a reasonable time? 3 months is unacceptable. In recent years my service experiences have all been good. Bryston was unreal. I shipped an amp Monday and I had it back on Thursday. Rogue did a repair in a week including shipping. Magnum Dynalab was also very quick. I'... | |
| warm sounding cartridge for rega arm Grados will likely hum as you get to the inner grooves. I tried a Grado on an AR table and couldn't take the hum. The Shure may fit your bill, but so may a Rega cartridge such as the Bias 2. I would pick the Bias | |
| Rega DAC: Cable suggestions The Rega Couple is a natural choice | |
| New lease on life for a pair of Ohm F's Tech Hifi- where I heard the F's, where the EPI's came from, and I even remember their house brand, Studio Design. | |
| What brand did you leave Rega for? I started with a Planar 3 and Linn K9 cartridge, then I bought an Exact cartridge (which was purchased in a shop in London for 1/2 the US price) to a Linn LP12. But the LP 12 went through upgrades too. My LP 12 originally had an RB300 arm, stil wi... | |
| Problem with Turntable leveling? Even if the platter is level and the arm is level it's possible the arm rest upon which your arm is lifted is a bit off level. This certainly could not impact playback at all | |
| Aleph 3 Buzzing noise Is this a mechanical buzzing sound coming from the amp or is the buzz coming through the speakers? If its a mechanical sound from he amp itself it may be the transformer. I once had an amp many years ago where the transformer buzzed- the transform... | |
| CJ ET3SE OR 16LS Series 2 I owned a 17LS2 for a number of years. It was a very good preamp. Might buy one again one day. Mine sold for a little under $3,000 when I sold it. | |
| How can a 30 watt, 28 year old amp sound more Years back I had a ML amp that needed to be repaired. While it was being repaired I used a 25wpc NAD unit to power my system. In a word, it was spectacular. It was easily 90% of what the ML was in terms of sound quality. Not long after the ML came... | |
| Do you think LP needs break-in to sound its best? Never experienced LPs sounding better after a few plays. But what do I know- I have been buying LPs for 4 decades | |
| Interconnect cable, $150 max For headphone setup I was able to pick up the Oasis for $90 new. Fits the bill and sounds good and seems solid. | |
| Is soundstage just a distortion? I don't think my componenets are "poorly designed", as I use a rather nice Sim Audio CD player, and have an LP12/Ekos/Arkiv B turntable set up. I don't know whether the point of stereo is to spread the sound outside of between the speakers. I thou... | |
| Is soundstage just a distortion? I could have been clearer- is soundstage extendeding beyond the speakers a product of a distortion? | |
| price point to move to separates vs integrated I replaced a CJ Preamp and Amp set up with a tubed integrated. The integrated beats my former CJ gear. In Fact I feel my currentIntegrated also is better than any othe pre power arrangements I owned- Including Pass, Bryston, ML. So to me neither h... | |
