| God I Miss My Quad ESL57s I've tried both the P3ESR and Fritz and in my space, which sadly won't work with Quads no matter what I do because it's sort of one open room with a room divider. For me, those smaller speakers weren't even close to the C7s nearfield. The second b... | |
| Denon 103S is a real good cartridge I loved the EMT but my system needs have changed so I'm going with a Lyra Delos. I was using it on a Well Tempered Simplex with a Herron VTPH-1 loaded at whatever was recommended. Can't remember. | |
| Loricraft PRC3 could use some help No perfect solution so far. I checked vacuum pressure and it seems good. I flushed the armtube with hot water and I decreased tracking pressure to zero. The only thing that does work is going back to the outside-in method of vacuuming which I gues... | |
| Loricraft PRC3 could use some help Ok. I'll try this. Thanks. | |
| What's the solid state amp to buy $2500? Herron's here and fantastic! Upgrade to M1As. All the sweetness of the SET amps with jazz and Americana but with so much more drive, dynamics, and power when I listen to more spirited music. | |
| Two Shelf Amp Stand? Thanks. That AudioAdvisor shelf is perfect. | |
| Anywhere to trade cartridges? Thanks for the suggestion. I'll be careful! | |
| What's the solid state amp to buy $2500? Just found a pair of Herron's! Thanks for all the help! | |
| What's the solid state amp to buy $2500? The Joules are a bit too lush for me these days. I'm looking for something more dynamic. Been playing guitar a lot so I'm wanting a tiny bit more of a studio sound. Just leaning over to that side some, although maybe some ATC Active Speakers are i... | |
| Which integrated tube amp to go with which speaker Harbeths for sure. But the best I've heard with the Harbeths are the Line Magnetic integrateds. Just super sweet. I've had the 218IA with my C7s and it's really an incredible combo. | |
| Opinions on bang for the buck on TT & tonearm Here's the thing, we all hear different. As we age our ears change so one man's illusion of being there is another man's cd-like sound. It's really hard to spend $6K wisely unless you are willing to listen to all types of turntables to find out wh... | |
| Lyra : World class service To be fair, cantilevers on all cartridges aren't very strong. I don't think their unwillingness to lose money because of your misfortune is grounds to label their customer service as bad. They are the (or among the) most helpful high end companies... | |
| Any Allnic H1201 owners out there? Even tricked out, I wasn't as happy with my EARp as many of the other tube phono preamps I've used. Nice unit but not really in the league of the Allnic. The Chinook was pretty dry sounding in my system. I'd buy the Allnic in a second, although I'... | |
| Advent 300 Repair in Los Angeles? Thanks. I took a look and contacted him. | |
| Wet Cleaning the Stylus No one mentions LYRA SPT. I used it for years. There's something about it that actually made the records sound better vs ME to my ears. I recently switched to EMT from a Helikon and Delos and EMT recommends just a brush so that's what I do now. |
