| Best LPs to Test Turntables Sorry. Reading through the responses was slightly depressing: most (though not all) of the recommended LPs are really SO unimaginative, so expected and all the usual suspects are there -- ZZZzzzzz. Yeah, yeah, "it's to test the gear not the music... | |
| BUSTED: UK company is raided for fake vinyl production Indeed, these records were cut direct-to-disc. The process used was beautifully demonstrated and filmed on the recent American Epic PBS documentary, URL herehttps://www.pbs.org/wnet/american-epic/Look under "American Epic Sessions".

| BUSTED: UK company is raided for fake vinyl production As an interesting, and Hi-Fi related, aside concerning Skip James ...John Peel (the most important British DJ of all time) had a small section of his late evening show called "The Pig's Big 78" ("The Pig" being his affectionate name for his wife w... | |

| Greatest Rock Drummers Simon King of early Hawkwind.OK, he's not the most technical drummer in the world, but he could keep a great Neu-like motorik beat going while the rest of the band were flying their Silver Machines on some other planet. I heard he gave up music an... | |
| Raidho speakers..any interest ?? I had a Chord SPM600 (and a Chord pre) powering Raidho D3s. It had all the power I needed but it lacked an element of timing and separation/detail of individual percussion instruments were somewhat "blurred". I have since upgraded to an Aavik U-30... | |
| Lars Kristensen and Michael Børresen leaving Raidho ... I wonder if the "separation" agreement between Raidho and the guys includes some for of non-compete clause? Just wondering.I'm using D3s, U-300 and D-level speaker cabs (+MainzD8) and a couple of C-level pc's. D-TC speaker cable upgrade is really ... | |
| Lars Kristensen and Michael Børresen leaving Raidho ... I'm all giddy with excitement as I will be getting my D-TC loom next month. The "energerizer" box alone makes a difference when connected to the system by a power chord to the distibution bar - with nothing else plugged into it. Agreed, Michael is... | |
| Lyra Delos Cartridge - Underrated? Currently on my third Lyra - this time an Etna. Very realistic indeed. Fast and - to me - a controlled treble and is exceptional on percussion (you can hear the tuning of the drum skins). I had a Micro Benz - nice cartridge on classical, but I fin... | |
| Why So Many Raidho D3's ? mirolab asks a good question.I'll probably be upgrading to D4.1s ... however, Rockport's are also marvelous and I really should audition these as well if I'm going to be spending that much money. TIDAL sounded great at Axpona so a trip to "The Voi... | |
| Why So Many Raidho D3's ? Buying the W-B Torus is a calculated risk. It's just arrived so no time to evaluate yet. I wanted a center-field sub (sorry, "Infrasonic Generator" as W-B call it ... daft). Bought from a dealer who has served me very well so ... fingers crossed. ... | |
| Why So Many Raidho D3's ? roxy54 is correct ... there was another thread on (almost) exactly the same topic, hgope there is no suspicious agenda going on here ... maybe not. Stickman451I've had Missions (when I was in UK), Quads (forgot model) then Wilson Alexia then I set... | |
| Why So Many Raidho D3's ? I have D3s and they're splendid. No complaints. I'll probably be getting D4s next, an upgrade I will happily do.If Raidho upgrade/update (as they clearly do) ... no biggie.There's another word for that: progress. If one doesn't develop and evolve ... | |
| Why So Many Raidho D3's ? I count two D3s as of 1 minute ago ... since when is "2" translated as "many"? |
