| Is there such a thing as tube sound in a ss? I'd hope it is not a 845 tube.LOL | |
| Thinking of buying a solid state amp Guido, We have spoken on the phone regarding your positive experience with the Rowland. Many thanks for taking the time to share your experience. I was waiting on a VAC for so long so I ended up taking the plunge. The 312 has a crystalline transpa... | |
| Thinking of buying a solid state amp Luxman are priced different in asia and worth a look. I used to own Rowland 312 and x350.5. Knowing your taste, I doubt you'll like the 312.I will miss a good listening buddy. | |
| Reel tapes recommendations Thanks guys. I just play the TP tapes thru so they can be stored. Good thing they run at 15ips. It sure is PITA but preserving those tapes are definitely worthwhile. My serviced Studer A810 so far has not blown my vinyl rig away. The pitch stabili... | |
| Reel tapes recommendations Mitch,That would mean I would have to play the tape to the end without using FF or RW. That seems somewhat painful. Any work around?I have a Studer A810 which is suppose to have a good drive mechansim. I certainly don't wnat to damage the tape pro... | |
| Reel tapes recommendations These r helpful tips. Anyway to remove or prevent print thru? | |
| Reel tapes recommendations Thanks for the tip. I recently got some tapes from ebay and it sounded like two different music pieces are being played at the same time. Is it because I am using a 4 track tape head and recording is two track? | |
| LP playback vs Reel tapes made from LP Many thanks for the responses. My interests are not so much for archiving my LPs but to extract the best quality playback from my system. I have a TW Acustic Raven Ac table with Phantom, triplanar, davinci arm; PC1, titan, XV1t and ultraeminent ca... | |
| Class A amplifiers - which are considered the best Luxman M800A in monoblocks allow me to kick the tube amp habit. | |
| Einstein vs Allnic H-3000 I prefer the Allnic with my XV1T. | |
| Increasing tone arm effective mass? I did it by using one supplied CW instead of two. This puts the weight far fro mthe pivot point with the same VTF. It produced more defined and impactful bass. It does not work on some carts. Different effect on different carts. | |
| Phono cable for Graham Phantom I have tried the following with the Phantom 2 arm: Hovland MG2, Tricon, hyperphono and analysis crystal oval. There is inherent difference in sound between all these cables. By changing the input imped on the phono stage, I can make this cables so... | |
| is the allnic L4000 better than the arc ref3 Yes, it was the ref3. It was an upgrade for me because I specifically want more bass drive and the Allnic did the trick. When I had the Boulder amp, ARC ref3 did bass just fine. It did not do bass as well when partnered with vac phi 300.1 or luxma... | |
| is the allnic L4000 better than the arc ref3 I did this exact switch. Your results will vary with the matching amps. Allnic has more impactful bass with sweeter midrange and treble. ARC is more open sounding with extended treble despite a little white-ish balance. Both very quiet with low no... | |
| Tubelike SS Power amp In my system, Luxamn M800a amps sound extremely close to vac phi300.1 in many aspects including the sense of space. I used different preamps and results are similar. I tried Pass, Classe, ML, Rowland, Boulder and these have their own strength but ... |
