| SEEKING A NEW AUDIO RACK I purchased a Core Audio Designs rack in 2017 for my new TT based system and could not be happier with the results. Beautifully built, great to look at and superb acoustic isolation for the TT. Here is a link to the manufacturers site (I have no a... | |
| Simon and Garfunkel "Bridge Over Troubled Waters" MOFI UD1S My copy was delivered yesterday. Unfortunately I am currently out of country and will have to wait until I get back for a listen. Many thanks for the review, I am intrigued, especially in view of the fact "Cecilia" is my favorite track on the album. | |
| My experience after lost of 20k$ My experience with computer audio is very different to yours. I have a $20k analog/digital system and the results via TT and computer audio are very good IMHO. I am extremely happy with this system and have no plans to upgrade, even though the spe... | |
| What do people place on their platter for dust protection I use a Michell Engineering GyroDec (full plinth version, not the SE) and always keep the lid closed when not in use or playing an LP. I have no problems with dust accumulation on the platter. I just dust the lid about once a month. | |
| Do Macs Play FLAC? I can play FLAC files on my MacBook Air. Files are played via Audirvana Plus through the USB port into a McIntosh C50 for D/A conversion. Works perfectly for me, very happy with the results. See my previous post on this subject. | |
| New Look for Audiogon hard to work with Agree, the text list was much easier to read. Can we have the old format back, please! | |
| Like the new look to audiogon ? First thing every morning I used to look at new for sale postings over the last 24 hours. Not anymore, too much like hard work with the new format. Can we have the old format back, please! | |
| CDs Vs LPs Sold my TT and vinyl record collection 34 years ago and went full into CDs. Very happy at the time, then in 2017 I decided it was time to get back into vinyl (Michell GyroDec, SME IV, Clearaudio Maestro Ebony V2, McIntosh C50, McIntosh MC275 mk VI... | |
| Turntable recommendations around $2500 Michell GyroDec SE. I use the full plinth version of the GyroDec (not SE) with an SME IV plus Clearaudio Maestro V2 Ebony cartridge, and could not be happier with it. Incredible design and build quality. Also, looks beautiful IMHO. See my previous... | |

| Highly recommend Paragon Sight and Sound in Ann Arbor, MI Jab, thanks for posting; that video is funny and my wife tells me she can relate to it! I to can report excellent service from Paragon Sight & Sound, they also had outstanding demonstrations at AXPONA. | |
| Dire Straits : what is your favorite pressing? Heard a test pressing of the MFSL 45rpm Love Over Gold album at this years Axpona show. Had them play Telegraph Road; sounded excellent to me, albeit with noticeable tape hiss. I have the disc on pre-order, can’t wait to get it. I am sure the soon... | |

| Opinions Please - Which Turntable Rack is Better I have a Core Audio plyKraft 3L rack that holds my TT (Michell GyroDec/SME IV, Clearaudio Maestro V2 Ebony). Works perfectly for me, the turntable is acoustically completely isolated. You can jump up and down (some call it dancing) right next to t... |
