| Kharma or Avalon Avalon Opus w/ 6" sub firing down. Have had them 14 years now. 12 years with Spectral / MIT system. Drive by Pass Lab XA160.8s and XP20 now. Maybe, MAYBE a pair of Rockports would convince me to change. The Avalons will also reflect your choice ... | |
| Best Tonearm Lifter? I used a Tru-lift on my LP12, worked for awhile, but tweaked the suspension and only worked if I kept adjusting it. Became a PITA. Then I got a Kuzma Stabi S, finally, with the aid of a VPI magic brick, I was able to get it mounted to the height n... | |
| What are the weak points of Pass amps and pre-amps ? Owned Spectral electronics for 20 years. Hyper detailed, bright, finicky about setup, the latest SV30 pre amp did not want to play well with my Manley Steelhead or Pass XOno phonostages, DMA 360 amps had a large "thump" at turn on.Switched to Pass... | |
| Kuzma Stabi S and 4point? overkill? jtnicolosi,Like me, you probably are not a reviewer, but would appreciate all thoughts that you can share about the Stabi M. Daily ease of use,maintenance, holding its parameters, suppression to vibration and footfalls,any annoying little things o... | |
| Kuzma Stabi S and 4point? overkill? clearthink,Every piece of my LP12 has been gone over, and adjusted by Tom O'Keefe of Ovature Audio in Ann Arbor, MI. One of the best Linn Techs left in the USA. You are right; I do not have an Ekos SE, Keel or Radikal. Nor do I intend to do so. I... | |
| Kuzma Stabi S and 4point? overkill? I have a Kuzma Stabi S TT w/ S12" VTA arm. I am selling my Linn LP12 after 28 years of pleasure from it. The Kuzma rig is better in 9 or 10 subtle ways over the Linn and the ergonomics are just hands down better. Bought the Kuzma rig from Brian at... | |
| Technics SL1200G vs GAE @pani ,You are over thinking this way too much. Ralph (atmasphere) modded my SL1200G with a Triplanar Classic SE tonearm. Also, at his advice, I changed out the stock mat with an Oracle Hard Acrylic mat and also use a 315gr HRS record weight afte... | |
| Tru-Lift tonearm lifter for Technics This is good news. The Tru-Lift on my Kuzma TT made listening to vinyl a pleasure. I can listen to music and not concern myself with the thought of when the record ends. I can also attend to phone calls, something on the stove, a quick trip to the... | |
| Alternatives to Stillpoints Even if you have a dedicated room for speakers and amps, equipment out of room is the best | |
| Technics Turntables...really??? @lewm ,Yes, I like my modded SL1200G with Triplanar arm. I also like my Kuzma TT. Two different sounds. Different TTs, arms, cartridges. I use a Manley Steelhead as phonostage for both.As for the LP12, It looks to be in decent condition. If someon... | |
| Technics Turntables...really??? Just my opinion, 20 years ago, who thought vinyl would still be alive ? Now we have new TTs popping up all the time and more reissues on better vinyl formulations. Vinyl was supposed to be dead.I think, everyone into vinyl, should have at least 2 ... | |
| Nottingham Spacedeck vs Rega Planar 8 vs Technics SL1200G stereo5,I have a SL1200G that Ralph modded for me with a Triplanar tonearm. I too use the Oracle Hard Acrylic mat that Ralph suggested. To answer your question; I have used the Oracle mat without removing the sticky back. My mat is not, stuck down... | |
| Brand New Warped albums! @slaw No, Other than the Wittmann site and the Roy Gregory Review: there is little info that I can find. I have been in contact with 2 A' gon members that use and recommend the AFI Flat. More info and user reviews and actual use would be apprecia... | |
| Brand New Warped albums! stereo5,I have been a Music Direct customer since the beginning. #0001. I received the new Beatles, "White Album" , Rocky Racoon had a skip pressed into it. Called MD customer service and they emailed a return FedEx shipping label that afternoon.... | |
