| Turntable - Where do I start ? I took a look at those Bluenote TTs. They seem to me definitely better than the Regas & Music Halls--bet they sound cleaner and way more musically involving. Looks like they work on rigidity and that ceramic impregnated belt sounds interesting... | |
| Time to get things straight. Maybe an EMT rim drive TT...maybe. Kevin told me this week of a customer of his that "upgraded" to a Rega P-25 and had to go back to the creature. Oh well... | |
| Could This Be Your Next Power Conditioner? Tom doesn't want me to go to Appalachia... | |
| Time to get things straight. Someday, maybe a Teres and a CEC belt driven transport--but I need either a house near the lake or a small farm first. Priorities, priorities...Dennis has upgrade fever, regardless. | |
| Power Conditioners - Best Set-Up My suggestion: keep reading... | |
| Old Newbie has questions on turntables. I don't like either TT, but would lean to the NAD if there's no other choice. The Thorens is an autimatic unit w/ an inexpensive tonearm. You could do much better by going into used or something with an upgrade path. You know what I would suggest.... | |
| Time to get things straight. You can't use unshielded Grado cartridges on a Technics 1200. The issue here is that most people can't recognize quality and/or restrictions amongst components, like in the previous example. If asked to explain the reasons why they are pro or agai... | |
| Time to get things straight. DJ Donovan's review of the fluid damper was really something. Now you can believe I can play the innermost grooves of a Streisand album w/ no breakup. It's all a matter of addressing a component's weaknesses. Hey, there's Origin Live mods for the ... | |
| Time to get things straight. The modded 1200 is not a starter TT--it's a high end deck. | |
| Looking to get TT The list price of my noise control rig is ~ $8K; the total system cost will end up being $6-7K. I got really good deals on the noise control stuff. Now that I'm more knowledgeable I could do it with more finesse and with less gear. I'll keep what ... | |
| The Best kept Secret in Speaker Cables please? There's a testimonial from a Kharma owner in the Ridge Street Audio website, if I recall... | |
| Time to get things straight. David, you are absolutely right. Why do you think the Roni pulled out this inactive thread (13 months!) from the archives? He wants the argument to keep going on and on and on--and he's never heard a modded 1200! Get real, Roni. You're not rocking... | |
| Review: KAB SL-1200 Fluid Damper Tweak I am happy for all of us, but especially more for Kevin. His genuine efforts to fight the mainstream and give us what is, in his (and our minds) the best TT in its price class (and the only remaining DD in this range--and higher!).Zaikes, your rev... | |
| Looking to get TT You need to read again..."I'm setting up a $6-7K system that will rival $25-30K ones".Ah, now I understand why most people don't do well on the ASVAB... | |
| Looking to get TT I lived in a log cabin--no electricity and w/ an outhouse next to the creek! Amenities? A Teres based audio system is spartan? Yeah--right.Too bad Tom, I found out yesterday my client will not be up and running until Thanksgiving, give or take a f... |
