| Not Enjoying My Turntable @elizabeth You say things sound 'fine' with your method of set up but it can certainly sound BETTER .... I'd like to suggest you look at Peter Lederman's videos at his website https://www.sound-smith.com/I recently had a problem with overhang ..... | |
| This is juvenile... Crystal Gayle in her prime~! What a babe. | |
| Picking a Tube integrated amp CRWENDY: I have no experience with Line Magnetic's customer service, but you certainly have that discussion with the Dealer, should you decide to purchase. | |
| Picking a Tube integrated amp Also pure class A is the Line Magnetic 518ia Integrated Vacuum Tube Amplifier .... 845 output tubes .... 22 wpc into 8 but your Vivid speakers with an 89 dB sensitivity should be fine ... and your speakers are closer to the 4 ohm load in the lowe... | |
| Disappointment with Pro-Ject... Just one question: Is your table/cartridge near a dimmer switch? If it is, then your cart is picking up the mag field of the dimmer when it is on. Either replace the dimmer switch with a standard on/off or move the switch elsewhere. | |
| Class D is just Dandy! I took the Class D plunge just a month ago for my home-office system as alternative to the Triode TRV-A300SE Integrated. I purchased the "Waring" Integrated from FLEAWATT (25 wpc into 4), the owner, Derek makes them himself. This little guy (the a... | |
| Best Tubed Preamp For A Warm, Rich Sound, Yet Still Detailed and Agile I'd like to respond to jmcgrogan2's post (my computer will not let me cut & paste in this forum). The Cary SLP-05 output impedence, per their published specification is 400 ohms. The input impedenace of my MAC MC 302 is 22k ohms (much less tha... | |
| Best Tubed Preamp For A Warm, Rich Sound, Yet Still Detailed and Agile Hey Nightfall; As you know, there are so many options available today it can make you crazy, but each of us must speak only from direct experience. There are several in this chain who have pointed you in the direction of Cary's SLP-05 ..... well, ... | |
| Do you admit that you ever enjoyed listening to: In short; Yes. Whether you’re drawn to the genre or not, all the groups you first listed produced/wrote great melodies and in my view that's what it's all about ... that and the arrangement. Sadly, much of the !@#$%*! produced today and for perh... | |
| My journey to search for standmount bookshelf speakers... I may be late to the party here, but you should consider Wavetouch Audio's (Alex Yoon) Antero's. Not only gorgeous but a wonderful sound - they use the AMT (Air Motion Transformer) 2" tweeter .. .... three words come to mind: neutrality, transpara... | |
| Norah Jones "Oh boy, now I'm in trouble !!! The Jones fans are going to be out for my blood !!!" Not at all. There is absolutely no arguement that the woman has a wonderful voice and a sultry quality, but let's face it ... you have to like the kind of songs s... | |
| Esoteric and Yaqin Thank you. Then another quesiton, if I may. Let's say we have a tube CD player and a tube pre-amp or even tube amplifier, how do we know how much of the source tubes are influencing the final signal? Would not the pre or power amps masked the soun... | |
| MAC's MP100 Phono Pre-amp Efficher .... thanks for the explanation .... I have no doubt that your C2300 was a great sounding pre, but I gotta pick a bone with you .... How is it even possible, that a 3 hour warm up will do anything at all to the sonic quality emminating fr... | |
| MAC's MP100 Phono Pre-amp To answer your question effischer, I have a VPI Classic with thier JMW-10 tone arm holding a Charisma MC2 cartridge. So what were the drawbacks of the 2300 that made you switch to the C50? Curious. For the time being, I'll hold and keep the Allnic... | |
| MAC's MP100 Phono Pre-amp Truer words never spoken. Thanks. |
