| new marantz sc7 and sm7 system I bought from Japan in 1979. You, "...have used them with US and European voltages." and they're still, "brand new"? Neat trick! | |
| new marantz sc7 and sm7 system I bought from Japan in 1979. Constructed with an untold number of electrolytic capacitors, that are now over 37 years old, it would be a good idea to be certain the pieces are actually functional, before trying to sell them. What you get will depend on the yen a buyer might h... | |
| Analysis Plus speaker cables I’ve been using the Big Silver Ovals, for the past four years, with great satisfaction. I don’t want anything in my system to editorialize what’s on my personal recordings. I found them to be considerably more transparent than the Wireworld Eclips... | |
| Atmasphere amps trustable? @Wolf- You misread the name on those amps. Those were not Atmasphere amps(made in the USA), but Atmohammud amps(imported from Syria). Can't take your eyes off of them, for a second! | |
| Can I use a step up transformer? Yes, you can! Be certain to match the SUT’s impedance with the Dyna’s. Actually the 20X-2 L’s got a lowish output impedance of 5 Ohms and Dyna advises to load it at 30 Ohms. I have a Denon and a Dyna(both 30 Ohms), that I’m using with an Auditoriu... | |
| First "audiophile" system, now what? Suggestions for best "bang for the buck" upgrade? Contact these guys and ask for Joe, regarding auditioning a set of interconnects and speaker cables, based on your particular system/components: (http://www.usedcables.com) Personally, I recommend either Kimber or Synergistic Research’s entry-leve... | |
| Continuum Caliburn - really the best TT on earth? My remark was, "It’s also INEVITABLE". As I stated later, it’s HUMAN NATURE. My transposing of letters was a JOKE, and I made no, "remark" about your spelling. If you were born with no sense of humor, that’s tragic. No one in Holland exhibits an... | |
| A friend told me JBL DD67000 is actually very bad speaker, is it true? What Douglas said, + 1. | |
| Continuum Caliburn - really the best TT on earth? @nandric- "You have obviously no other comment than about spelling mistakes..." That's hardly accurate! Human nature(and it's attendant showing off) IS inevitable and your comment that showing off one's wealth, regarding, "cars, yachts, pala... | |
| Continuum Caliburn - really the best TT on earth? "Abonimable"? It's also inetivable! | |
| Question about neutrality and transparency in an amp Your claim that both your speakers and integrated are, " quite colorless and neutral", should answer that question for you. Transparent, colorless and neutral all connote faithfulness to the source, or whatever’s upstream. If you want warm colored... | |
| Newby Q about impedances etc. The specs of your Contours and other mentioned choices are so close as to be inconsequential. If you're not changing rooms and expect to listen at the same SPLs as before, you shouldn't have any problems. | |
| VPI MOTOR PULLEY ?? And don’t forget the pulley will need to be bored for an "interference fit" on the motor shaft: (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interference_fit) If it won’t go on the shaft, or falls off it, it won’t matter how accurate the OD of the grooves are. | |
| VPI MOTOR PULLEY ?? Never have dealt with them(Bob’s), but- my sentiments would be the same. Yep, dealing with Harry directly, was a pleasure. I have dealt with these guys, many times and have been very satisfied with their business ethic: (http://www.elusivedisc.com... | |
| VPI MOTOR PULLEY ?? I would try here: (http://www.bobsdevices.com/VPI-Accessories.html), since (apparently) one cannot contact VPI directly, any longer: (https://www.vpiindustries.com/products.html) |
