| FM alive and well here...curious question I would schubert, but don't own a streaming device, whatever that is ;-). Such a luddite! | |
| Pass Labs Hmm. Yesterday I posted a response to bigkidz post which responded to my previous one, and then left for my gig. Today it’s gone. I wonder what I said that was unacceptable? I admitted that I didn’t disagree with the notion of it being considered ... | |
| Dearly departed Music Reference RM9 fearsnears, I should have also mentioned that Roger Modjeski can incorporate the Mk.2 updates into your RM-9 as he restores/repairs it. | |
| List of artists that have never lost quality throughout entire career Richard Thompson, Danny Gatton, Albert Lee, Loudon Wainwright III, The Ramones. | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report I got to see EJ with his original band around the time of Tumbleweed Connection (70-71), and they pleased me greatly. My interest in him soon thereafter evaporated, he appearing to me to be more of an entertainer than an artist, if you know what I... | |
| Dearly departed Music Reference RM9 I'll bet you can get your RM-9 completely restored for less than $2000, maybe much less. Roger doesn't gouge the way some companies do. | |
| FM alive and well here...curious question L.A.'s Classical stations are terrible, playing a single movement of a Symphony or Concerto. What are they afraid of, listeners getting bored?! Plus, they have radio "personalities", trying to be charming, but coming off as smarmy. To me, at least. | |
| ARC GS150 design error Damn, that's a pretty major error to make for a company that has been making amps as long as ARC has. Not ARC bashing, but jeez. Personally, I don't like meters, except for setting bias, etc. | |
| What's your OTL tube amp experience and suggestion? The only OTL other than an Atma-Sphere I would own would be the Counterpoint SA-4, designed by Roger Modjeski of Music Reference. One advantage of the SA-4 is it's lower output impedance, providing more predictable frequency response (read John At... | |
| Ground Hum with Rega RP6, Exact and TT PSU. How about the dealer who sold you the table/arm/cartridge? Proper set-up, operation, and your satisfaction should be included with the purchase and guaranteed. | |
| FM alive and well here...curious question I was pleased to discover that Portland (Oregon) has a good Classical and Jazz station, at the left end of the dial of course. I haven't yet set up my MAC MR78 (with Modafferi update), but I gotta get a rooftop antenna and rotor. | |
| Maggie 3.6R volume problem See if the conductive wires glued onto the Mylar are delaminating. Very common with older Maggies. Fix them, then sell them and get a pair of Eminent Technology LFT-8b's, whose magnetic-planar panels have vapor-deposited conductive elements rather... | |
| Amps from the 1980's -- What gear holds up sonically? Reliably? For solid state, the Electron Kinetics Eagle 2 and Bedini 25/25. For an amp with the power of the above-mentioned Adcom 555 but with far better sound, the PS Audio 200C. Plus, it doesn't blow up speakers as the Adcom is notorious for doing. | |
| Vibration control inside a cabinet Todd, what Barry Diament (long-term roller bearing proponent, and audiophile recording engineer) suggests is a roller bearing comprised of only one cup (the bowl facing upward, of course), the ball bearing sitting in it, and a hard ceramic floor t... | |
| Anybody have a PS Audio 200C Power Amp owners manual? Thanks jayman. I'm at ericjerde@gmail.com. I know the owners manual didn't contain specs---Gordon Holt commented on that fact in his review of the amp, providing some of them like input impedance and sensitivity. |
