| If cost was no factor, what system would you build as your main audio system? If I had the right room, (custom built), and the money, the mbl Master Reference System would my mine.Never heard anything better. | |
| Jelco Easy VTA on the Fly This looks kinda intriguing:https://www.ebay.com/itm/jelco-VTA-for-sa-370-750-ts-550-tonearms-turntable/153008593940?ssPageName=...I have a couple of Jelco arms that this will work on. Wish it had it's own base for the micrometer to raise and low... | |
| Jelco Easy VTA on the Fly Thanks for the update. My new Jelco TK850L is in transit. SWEET! Jelco makes some frickin' excellent arms for the money. To do better, you usually need to spend way more money. I've always felt that audiophiles didn't take them seriously eno... | |
| Jelco Easy VTA on the Fly I guess they have their issues sorted as it is on sale on a US distributer site. http://hotvalveaudio.com/product-category/easy-vta/ The US importer has had the EasyVTA on thier site for over a month now. I have been in contact with him, but h... | |
| New Rega Planar 6 But I would be willing to bet both units would still have a similar Rega TT signature sound between them. Yes, they do have that Rega "house" sound. Just like a lot of high-end audio gear. It’s voiced to that designer’s preferences, (good or bad,... | |
| New Rega Planar 6 Just to clarify— the Rega P6 was replaced recently by the Planar 6. The Planar 6 has multiple improvements including a better tonearm, platter, “plinth” and power supply. Before the upgrade, the less expensive Planar 3, which came out a while ago... | |
| What component to hang on to? Speaking of analog, we all know most components appeal to some folks and not others. VPI tables veer strongly towards warmth, richness, lushness, and elasticity. If you want a snappier, tighter, faster, more exciting and lively presentation, y... | |
| New Rega Planar 6 Fluid "sloshing around"? Are you sure you have the right stuff in the bearing well? The WT damping fluid is a thick silicon goo, which resembles molasses or honey. It doesn’t "slosh", it oozes. You can turn the cup sideways and not have the silico... | |
| What component to hang on to? I third that! Keep the VPI. If you want to sell it, please get a hold of me. | |
| Who wants the best improvement in their system EVER! Kdude66. I've been reading the audiogon forums for several years and only posted once. I generally don't feel a need to. I enjoy the reading peoples posts.But I have noticed that almost on every post recently you seem to dis tekton. I GET IT. Y... | |
| Stereophile, no more bench tests????!!!! Sorry, but I love TAS. I have had an uninterrupted subscription since Issue 20 (December 1980). I bought quite a few back issues before the fire in Sea Cliff and have found the rest, so I have every print issue.I started my Stereophile subscript... | |
| Shure to leave the phono business Back in the 70's a cheap Grado FTE ($15) always beat the Shures for sound quality and sheer musical enjoyment! Gordon Holt and Harry Pearson would agree! I used to order that model (well, the GTE+1), 25 at a time. Although it was a great start... | |
| Herron NOS Tubes I have drawers full of tubes. Every brand and type you can imagine. The National Matsushita 7DJ8's are one of the best...period. I've been touting these for years on here. | |
| What is an excellent power cable? I have tried literally hundreds and hundreds of different cables. I have to agree with the above comments about the Pangea AC cables. These are the only ones that I liked better before they broke in. After break-in, slow, dark, thick, colored, ... |
