Looking for a new powerful amp.
Nuforce 9's. 
Would an Audiofile really download music?
I've listened to a few samples of music. I'm not really sure that they reveal what the analog record would sound like. 
Ready to try vinyl
That listen was like 25-years ago. I don't remember the specifics, but I do remeber the Denons at DB audio has a similiar signature. I believe the argument was directly connecting a motor to the spindle was conterproductive as we are talking about... 
Getting and keeping records clean................
Has anyone had the experience, with hand cleaning, of having the stylus becoming the final cleaner and eventually totally gunking up. I had to change cartridges-very expensive. 
Ready to try vinyl
I just want to mention that I heard the mega-dollar Nakamichi direct-drive turntable. I thought that it obviously sounded like a direct-drive turntable(inferior to belt-drives, in my mind). It was the record-centering Nakamichi($10,000?). 
How do I go backwards?
I hope that you take my response about pre-1983 albums seriously, as pre-digital will change brain waves(which is why we listen to music). 
Review: DCM TimeWindow 1 Speaker
Has anyone tried to tighten the drivers on these speakers? They are fairly old now. Anyhow, I am a little wary, because of the yellow chalkmark on the tweeter plate. There are also two possible tighteners on the tweeters. What type of screw holds ... 
has anyone heard the nuforce amplifiers
I just got the updated Nuforce 8.01b back yesterday. Right at first, I thought they might be closed in. I have changed my tune. Without comparing them to the 8, they are incredible. 
Interconnects for the nuforce amp
I just want to thank Plato for the Signal Cable silver resolution cables recommended for the Nuforce 8 amplifier. They are not completely broken-in yet. Immediately, they were much more transparent. They have much more detail than what I was using... 
Interconnects for the nuforce amp
I just put in one set of silver resolution speaker cables to the side that has the new board or the Nuforce 8b. It does sound better, but I wonder about the bass. The Fulton Golds definintely play the bass. Do we need more break-in time. I'm wonde... 
ICEpower Digital Switching Amps?
I just want to respond to the digital thing. First off, digital is not music. It is a description of music. Go back to the theory and prove me wrong. 
Interconnects for the nuforce amp
They keep getting better. I haven't put in the speaker cables yet(I'm using Fulton Golds while I burn in the silver resolutions). I will post soon on the silver resolution speaker cables(8-feet, per Mapleshade recommendations). By the way, my inte... 
Does anyone get turntable set-up?
Slipknot1, I agree with Lloyd Walker, especially his last statement. I would also like to encourage loose cartridge bolts and slightly moving one side forward or backwords to help lock in the sound. 
ICEpower Digital Switching Amps?
I didn't read all the responses here, but just look at the responses. They seem to have to generate their own momentum. I could be wrong(since I haven't auditioned any of them), but the Nuforce generates their own momentum by themselves. 
Amp Help ICE or Class D
I agree with Plato, without having access to other amps. Is that important?
