| HDTV questions Slappy,Correct. | |
| HDTV questions Slappy,While I have TWC, I strongly suspect HD access will be the same with Comcast. Comcast should have some type of digital cable box with HD capability. TWC makes you rent theirs. It does the decoding. You'll need an HD ready set for HD and for... | |
| Is vinyl dead ? Rockinroni,You misunderstood my point about getting a turntable now. I agree that there are more good turntables available now than ever before. I'm not maintaining the supply of tables is about to drop. But, unless you live in or near a major Cit... | |
| Is vinyl dead ? Vinyl is dead as a mainstream commercial product. 95% of the market, or more, really doesn't care if the Lp sounds better than CD. I have given dozens of demos in my home over the years and the Lp continues to shock people who previously assumed C... | |
| Basis 2001 Peter,I went from a full boat Linn front end, except for a Benz Ruby 2 cartridge, to a Basis 2500/Graham 2.2. I continued to use the Benz with my new set up. I made the switch because the local Linn dealer was going under and I was losing my tech,... | |
| Transparent Audio cables System synergy is what cables are all about. I used Transparent Reference for several years with my Wilson 5.1's. This was supposed to be a perfect match but I still kept running into to many recordings that were to forward, specifically massed st... | |
| Upgrade to Graham 2.2 ? I have a 2500 and a Graham 2.2. I agree with what Twl says to a point. The main advantage the 2500/2800 have over your unit is their suspension. They are much better isolated from vibration. Your unit on a vibraplane(sp?)or some other type of stan... | |
| Continuation of my Thread on VPI, Basis, Origin... I have a Basis 2500, Graham 2.2 and a Ruby 2. I used to have a full boat Linn front end. The Linn front end had nothing I don't have now, but my new front end has superior image focus and bass control. The Graham has adjustments that allow you to ... | |
| Anyone ever used a KSA 200S w/Watt/Puppy's I have a ML 335 and Wilson 5.1's. I feel that the tonal balance of the newer ML stuff is a good match with Wilson's. Older Krell may be a little to upfront.I'm not surprised by Chuck's comment. Wilson Watt/Pups are extremely finicky and take lots ... | |
| My Next Miles Davis Disc? Someday My Prince Will Come and Something Else by Cannonball Adderley are your choices. | |
| Linn or VPI Elkyman,You have a point on who'll be here to back up the table years from now. That's why I suggested you go with a table as bullet proof as you can get. If Linn really was committed to analog why is it they haven't introduced any new products in... | |
| Linn or VPI I had a full boat Linn front end, went from an Arkiv to a Ruby 2 and then to a Basis 2500, Graham 2.2 and a Ruby 2. I prefer the Ruby in both arms because it tracks much better than the Arkiv, is a little warmer and is much cheaper to retip. Of co... | |
| Linn- Ekos or PS Audio 300 I have had all this gear at one time or another. The Lingo makes a big improvement in sound and gives you 45rpm. I'd go with the Lingo. You can't use the multiwave option with the PS if you plug your LP 12 into it. If you go with the Lingo now you... | |
| Linn Arkiv or Lyra Helikon? Your phono stage may tip the scales toward the Arkiv but consider a Benz Ruby. I had a full blown Linn like yours and went to the Ruby from an Arkiv. The Ruby is just a touch warmer and tracks the pants off the Arkiv. They are both fine choices bu... | |
| Cleaning vinyl - am I using this thing right??? I have used Torumat fluid and the VPI brush for years, on thousands of records, with my 16.5 with few problems. Use enough fluid to really get the record covered and scrub with the brush for 4-5 revolutions. Then use the vacuum tube for as many re... |
