| MC cart, can I use MM phono preamp? Doug, I'm curious what that $125MM cart is. | |
| How close is the mhdt pardisea 3 to theplus "theplus" is an extremely vague name. What are you referring to? | |
| Alon II Mark II It's not clear what you plan on doing, but I agree with Btaudio. Alon's need room to breath. The other thing to consider is resale value. Hacked up equipment is worth a lot less and it's harder to sell. | |
| Do you cover your towers? Undoubtably speakers that have been blanket covered will give a warmer sound.That explains what I've been hearing! I thought it was the cables I just bought. doh! I wonder if an electric blanket would help even more? | |
| Do you cover your towers? I cover mine with blankets whenever I'm not using them. I do this mainly to keep sunlight off the drivers. My listening room gets a lot of sun. | |
| Help selecting amplification with phono What's your impression of the Jasmine 2.0? Any thoughts to share? | |
| Which New Preamp To Get ? What's your budget? | |
| Help selecting amplification with phono Redglobe, I have two questions: 1) Is your $1600 budget for amp, preamp and phone stage? If so, I don't think you can make a significant upgrade to all three. If your amp and speakers work well together, keep them and focus on upgrading your pream... | |

| Recommend a preamp for Denon Dl 160 Davidnboone,I read the posts on Vinyl Engine about loading the DL-160 at 1k ohms. I don't doubt there's an audible difference between 47k and 1k, but I wouldn't make a mountain out of a mole hill. I'm not dismissing the thread, but I question whet... | |
| Recommend a preamp for Denon Dl 160 Cambridge Azur 640P for under $150 should be a big improvement over the built-in phono stage. You also need to make sure the cartridge is aligned correctly. What did you use for a protractor? | |
| Best 6 inch speaker cable suggestions needed. There was a forum not too long ago where Ralph Karsten of Atma-Sphere described his positive experience using 3" cables connecting speakers to tube amps. He had a technical explanation for the reason behind the benefit, but I don't recall the deta... | |
| Best 6 inch speaker cable suggestions needed. Frankk, do you have any observations to report on your short speaker cables? I'm considering the same thing. | |
| step up from rotel? Good suggestions above. Belles 150 is excellent for the price. | |
| RB301 Rewire....Worth It? If the cartridge tag can be repaired, I'd do that. However, if you want to rewire your arm, a cheaper alternative to the Incognito is the Cardas Tone Arm Rewire Service. They use the same 33 awg Cardas wire that's in the Incognito. I have no conne... |
