| Best CD player directly to Amp? I've had good results with my Mark Levinson 390s, although it might be a tad above your price range. | |
| So WHERE do you go to buy a Shure V15 Cartridge ? Your best deal might be from your local Shure dealer. Try www.shure.com to find your local sales rep to locate a dealer. As a backup, I think www.audioadvisor.com will sell you one of these $350 list items for $275. For spare parts, try www.needle... | |
| Help, moved and very unhappy the sound of the syst Is your wall current up to snuff? | |
| What does this mean? From the ungodly, perverted vivisection on the Island of Dr. Moreau, could it be a balanced interconnect reterminated with RCA plugs? | |
| Levinson or Krell I'm happy driving my W/P 6's with Pass X600 monoblocks. The Pass's have pure, smooth, liquid midrange and treble ranges and are OK if not great in the bass. This is a good fit with the W/P 6 which tends to be a little hot and very revealing in the... | |
| "RECORDING OF THE WEEK"????? My current favorites are Live at Blues Alley by Eva Cassidy (listen for sharp cymbals and huge bass, as well as female vocal) and Tourist by St. Germain (edgy but listenable techno-jazz not for everyone). I'm bringing them to the Stereophile NY show. | |
| Where to buy LP Sound by Singer has a few bins. Princeton Record Exchange in NJ has a substantial collection of used LPs. | |
| Dynaudio or Wison? The WATT/Puppy 6 is being replaced by the W/P 7 this month. The W/P 7 is a complete redesign. Suggest you wait a few weeks then audition it. | |
| Oh where or where have all the buyers gone? Unemployment is up to 6%, and the NASDAQ Composite is down more than 15% year to date. (The S&P 500 is off more than 6% year to date.) | |
| Preamp Selection Sorry I came to this thread so late. You've probably already made your decision, and my comment is only of acacemic interest.I have a Pass Aleph P and also need more inputs. (It was bought before I added some more sources.) I added an Entech Direc... | |
| Where do I go from here? Check the recent thread titled, "Looking for speaker to match with pass lab aleph3." | |
| Thoughts for a system for 5000 Check the recent thread "Best System for the Budding Audiophile." | |
| CD Players which connect direct to Amp? The Mark Levinson 39 and its successor, the 390s, are high quality units that have analog volume controls. | |
| Am I going insane? The terrible part of it is that you can already tell the difference in sound quality. A lot of beginners can't tell and can thus fool themselves for years that it doesn't matter. Since you CAN tell, just think about how you can get better sound fo... | |
| Best system for the budding audiophile? Try: Proac 1SC speakers (estd $1000-1500 used with stands), Pass Aleph 3 amp ($1000 used on Audiogon), Pass Aleph P preamp ($1700 used on Audiogon), California Audio Labs CL20 ($1100 used on Audiogon). Start with cheap interconnects and zip cord f... |
