| Lyra Lydian Beta, Rega hum? ...and that's what I've told on my first post here... | |
| Please explain what balanced out puts are. Balanced interconnects and inputs/outputs have two ground wires that are out of phase and one signal wire. That configuration allowes to get rid of microphonics and eliminates a reactance of the interconnect making it newtral. On the best case it'... | |
| Strange noise after amp's off ??? Most-likely it's the way it is. I've never used Plinius 8100 but I assume that Plinius powers down rapidly with no delay.I suggest using a power conditioner that will turn down your amp slow and you will hot hear any "dong" on your speakers. You w... | |
| BAT-VK60 or Art Audio Jota --mono amps? I understand that the author is realy talking about a pair of VK60 as monos already. Parcifals don't have a stable impedance so cannot be driven by SET amp. | |
| Reducing background fizz and pops on Vinyl. Face the fact: vinyls will ALWAYS have a surface noise even brand new even after VPIying or Nitty-Grittying or other types of cleaning. You can certainly use a "forgving" cartridge/stylus like Shure or AudioTechnica paired with some project phono ... | |
| Are you an audiophile or a music lover: take 4 simply other music | |
| Portable CD Player with Digital out Yep Sony DEJ721 has a digital out. Check out the posted Take-it-with-you system bellow and everything will clear up to you. | |
| BAT-VK60 or Art Audio Jota --mono amps? You're right VK60(are just about enough) and Art Audio are not. | |
| Have you ever broken the needle? VanDenHul will retip(stylus only) if cantilever is OK for $300 in US. | |
| Gain matching of power amps I see no point in matching a gain. How can you controll it? Even if you find matched gain amps most-likely they will have different sencitivity. The input sensitivity of amps of different brands is different by non-negatable values by tenth fracti... | |
| Inexpensive Tri-Wire Cables You could even schuffle with different single-wire factory terminated cables or mixing a single-wire with bi-wire for a "larger room of experiments" but it's truly pain to connect two or three spades onto one binding post(bananas cannot be connect... | |
| 2 channel Poll: Vote: Do you use Tubes or SS? If I would go for SS I would get Pass X350 or Gamut D200 or Pass Aleph 2 monos but I havn't a budget for those right now and use VTL MB125. | |
| Interconnects recommendation for passive preamp? Nordost cables? What kind? I believe that their flat design similar to parallel connection of capacitors if the equivalent circuit of these cables will be drown. If capacitors are connected in-parallel the resulting capacitance adds up but not eli... | |
| Best system under 5K - that is a challenge Ha, Ha...! My nephiew just asked me to build him a 2ch system with just only $500. what's more challenging? | |
| Helikon run-in groove problem..... One more thing:Most of the used records even if visually in excellent condition have a surface noise at the beginning(lead-in-groove problem) so practice on some cheap vinyls to place a needle right onto the record:) |
