| Pre/Power Jumpers for McIntosh MA-7000? Im not sure if it is lack of shielding on the factory jumpers or just a new clean connection but a set of low end jumpers really cleaned up and smoothed out the music on my ma6900. I also tried a couple pairs of 3' interconnects with the same res... | |
| For your information Just saw your post and tried it. Worked nice Thanks | |
| VPI Prime or Scout or ??? I have a vpi scout and the Hana SL works very well. Quiet background and very musical. Sounds warm but with detail. I think it will pair well with your mcintosh. | |
| I'm thinking about a Jolida system, and would like to know from those in the know! Ive had the cm2 for 3 yrs now no problems. It sounds more musical then the older SS Mcintosh system which it replaced. Every time I audition a new SS Integrated at the stores when I come home and turn my CM2 on I forget about the ones at the store... | |
| Hana SH vs ortafon 2m Black I have the budgie SUT 10 hooked up now for a few weeks. Its given my hana quite a big boost in gain which now sounds a lot more aggressive and is no longer on the thin side and still remains smooth and quiet. | |
| Hana SH vs ortafon 2m Black There are are some good videos on You Tube for setting up and adjusting your scout. I did mine for the first time and got it pretty close. The Hana needed a little extra weight on the head shell to adjust the tone arm weight properly. If thats the... | |
| Hana SH vs ortafon 2m Black Thanks for your response. The Hana is as you described smooth musical low noise. Turning up the volume is fine up to about 75% then I start getting tube rash or something like that and I feel I am pushing the limits of the amp. Now when I have it ... | |
| Turntable Upgrade A used table would be fine. I checked out the poly table that yogi boy recommended at the show very nice quality and design. Still researching the best cart for that one. The margules sounded great for 1,800 very heavy cool design but after cart... | |
| Turntable Upgrade Thanks I only had the chance to demo against the rega 2 The two sounded the same. Tried to demo the Marantz 15s1 but it was having belt issues. I think I will check out the ca audio show in oakland in a couple of weeks and go from there. Also vpi... | |

| Killer Floor Standing Speakers under $4000 for Rock? I had the 14s2 which has 10 less watts but pretty much the same and It was at its best when played high, very distortion free at all levels but if you find a speaker with less efficient drivers and it doesn't give you that bass slam, use it as a p... | |
| Gravitas NB 1 monitors Thats APL Gravitas NB-1 from Bulgaria | |
| Comparing new Nova300 vs Marantz PM14S3 The nova 125 sounded good but I didn't care to listen to it for longer periods. I owned the 15s2 also It was a very quiet & clean sounding amp with huge power reserves,the capacitors are quite large in this amp and it performed best when you p... | |
