| overwhelmed by record rituals I would experiment with some of the cheaper solutions before buying anything expensive. Last is good. I have some stuff called Finyl that seems to work OK. Try a few different brands and see if they can do the job. If they don't work out, then loo... | |
| Anyone receive Focal Utopia speakers with defects? "06-27-15: Johnnyb53Do you think the discount you got is sufficient to cover both a discontinued model and demo units?Another way to look at it, if you had bought a pre-owned pair of v1 Scalas in 9/10 or 8.5/10 condition, would you have paid about... | |
| Buy 24/44 Download or Rip CD "On Amazon you can buy that particular album on CD for $13. If you rip the CD using MAX or a similar program, don't you get 24/44 files?"You can rip the music on a CD to anything you want but you can't get any more info than what is already on it ... | |
| Computer grade parts? I think you have it right. It sounds like whoever you were speaking to was misinformed. Most people have no idea what high end/audiophile gear is. Very few are ever exposed to it. | |
| Help- VPI record player on/off switch failed. Call VPI or your dealer. Your TT has a 3 year warranty. | |
| cary slp98 pre with yba 600 power amp compatable? I would make the choice based on sound quality, and not if the preamp is tube or SS. If not, the risk of making a mistake becomes much greater. Also, I'm not sure how you plan to go about this, but if you get something without demoing it first, yo... | |
| Anyone receive Focal Utopia speakers with defects? You need to speak to your dealer. For them to deliver a pair of speakers like that and not unbox them and set them up for you is unheard of. Also, even if a home delivery was not done, its standard practice for the dealer to unbox the speakers bef... | |
| Audio Eden & Lack of Response - Anyone Else? What's a turkey? | |
| Audio Eden & Lack of Response - Anyone Else? A few years ago I was discussing this type of thing with the Classe importer. Any time one of their products has to go back to the factory in Canada for some reason, they send the component(s) to someone who works for them in upstate NY. Once the ... | |
| Computer based system. Need advice on DAC. Get a dac with a volume control. It will allow you to get rid of that old preamp. Removing the preamp will probably make a bigger difference than the dac itself. | |
| Industrial grade steel storage rack as audio rack? I agree with everyone else. Its just not designed for audio equipment. You don't have to spend a fortune, but at least get something designed for audio components. | |
| Audio Eden & Lack of Response - Anyone Else? Its very easy to lose a lot of money selling back and forth between Canada and the US. The fact that a Canadian seller wanting to get paid in Canadian dollars doesn't seem too strange to me. Not dealing with PayPal is a smart move. I can't say any... | |
| How to reveal the truth? "06-25-15: EbmGood luck most of these people BS BIG TIME!!"Does that include me? | |
| Need help with Apogee Centaur Major I wouldn't automatically classify this as a speaker issue. It probably is, but I would eliminate the rest of the system before spending any money. In your post, you don't say, but it looks like the problem is with just 1 of the speakers. If that's... | |
| Better 2-channel music "06-24-15: PhilkoanI've just realized that besides a good CD player and a good DAC, a very good 2 channel preamp is the key and the heart of the system."Well its about time. lol. I knew we'd make an audiophile out of you. |
