| Vandersteen 3a vs Magnepan 3.7i Unfortunately the way my room is set up 40" is about the max I can get in front of the 12' wall. | |
| Recommendations for an MC cart on Audiogon I should add I’ve purchased 4 cartridges between this site and Audiomart and never had any problems, 3 U.S. and 1 from Thailand. | |
| Recommendations for an MC cart on Audiogon I'm using a Carmen 2 I picked up here about 7 months ago sounds great in all respects top to bottom. I think with the sale you can go higher up the SS line. The good thing with SS is that retipping is reasonable when the time comes.One of my frien... | |
| Vandersteen 3a vs Magnepan 3.7i Thanks tomic601 have changed to 38" for tweeter outside and 32" on inside keeping the 13" from side wall seems to be much better focussed. I will get back to some of the problem recordings later. | |
| Am I the only one that finds the "Round thumbnail frames" irritating on classifieds? Agreed very unappealing.I thought the old format was much better. | |
| Vandersteen 3a vs Magnepan 3.7i Woop should be inches. | |

| Vandersteen 3a vs Magnepan 3.7i Using a Pass 250.8 with their XP10 preamp a VPI Aries Scout tt Soundsmith Carmen mk 2 cartridge Sim Audio lp3 phono pre and Oppo 103 for digital.Merry Christmas to all and a happy and healthy New Year. | |

| Recommendations for an MC cart on Audiogon Now is a great time to try MI as Soundsmith is having a great sale on cartridges to make room for it’s new line. | |
| Turntables You could pick up a used VPI table and a low hours cartridge. If you want to try a tt that gets good reviews in a lower price range check the Uturn web page, they also have a reasonable phono preamp. | |
| Emotiva equipmet, how good is it? I had a pair of XPA 1L trying to power my Maggie 1.7 speakers after about 7 returns to the factory for service I switched to a Parasound integrated it was a dramatic improvement in quality, and musicality and never a problem. | |
| What are your notes and thoughts on The Beatles White Album Giles Martin remaster? Has anyone compared vinyl to cd. I've been told the Esher songs are much better on vinyl just wondering if that's true. | |
| Emotiva equipmet, how good is it? I think the older Emo stuff is from China most of the new line is at least assembled here according to their web page. | |
| Emotiva equipmet, how good is it? You can probably find a used Parasound integrated for about $1300 , I don’t think you’ll be able to beat it for sound and function at that price. I owned Emos and the difference was night and day. |
