| Separates w/internal phono vs Integrated + phono You also have the advantages of separate power supplies for separate components, generally thought to be a good thing. Though on the other hand, with an integrated you don't have to worry about component synergy to the same degree. | |
| Separates w/internal phono vs Integrated + phono It will also depend on how much you are interested in tweaking your sound. Separates allow you to dial the sound in to get what works best for you. You have more control over each part of the system. | |
| Change the cartridge or phono stage I am not sure why everyone on this thread is obsessed with your set-up. I will assume that you have a cart that is properly set up and that any new cart will be set up properly by you or a dealer. Yes, this is very important. Like many audio compo... | |
| Change the cartridge or phono stage I think that you will get more warmth from a cart or phono stage, rather than from a cable swap. But do not assume that a TT is just like an amp or CD player. The signal level is much much lower. Which makes cables from your cart to phono stage th... | |
| Quality of Analogue Productions pressings Step one: Google AP/AS. Step two: call the number on the websites. | |
| Quality of Analogue Productions pressings Agree. You can get this remedied. Those guys are great to work with. Bum to hear of course. I have had nothIng but good luck with QRP pressings (though I will not be buying Norah Jones anything in general; not m cup of tea). | |
| Tube Mono-Block Recommendation +1 to Rushton's response. What is that Atma show trick? Pulling out an output tube when the amp is playing?And yes Atma was the first amp that jumped to mind given your criteria. | |
| Closest DAC to Vinyl Sound? Check out the Yamamoto DACs. Great analog output stage. | |
| need advice The Lores and the Spendors will probably have pretty different sounds. I have heard similar speakers, but not these particular ones. I would guess the Lore is more forward, the Spendor more warm and laid back. Check reviews of each. | |
| Tube Mono-Block Recommendation If you are looking for fast, accurate and musical, I'd recommend looking into Atma-sphere OTL amps. Though you will need to make sure that they work well with your speakers (as with any amp). So yes, knowing what speakers you will be driving will ... | |
| Best Power Conditioner? Ptss, That is an interesting comment. I have wondered about whether I would benefit or not from pairing an Audience conditioner with my Equitech. | |
| Are there any DACs that can go low? I agree with the suggestion that you pay attention to the output stage of your DACs. Best output stage I have heard on a DAC was from the analog maestros at Yamamoto, on their YDA-01 DAC | |
| NOLA, Fritz, or used Totem Hawk - Want Drama Haven't heard the others, but the Fritz Carbons were the first monitors I fell in love with. | |
| i love music espcialy coming fron a turtable, C'mon, looks like OP is a non-native English speaker. How about we help instead of criticize? As with all audio equipment there are diminishing returns as you move up in price. But with a phono stage, as you move up in price, you are usually looki... | |
| LS50s and room size Though they do have foam plugs for the ports, presumably for folks who are looking to place them near a wall. |
