| Personal turntable/cartridge evolution Walker Audio Proscenium Gold Signature turntable is the end of my turntable journey, too. And the Magic Diamond cartridge is superb. Congratulations, Slipknot1!Prior to the Walker here:VPI 19 MkIII with ET2 tonearm, Grado ReferenceB&0 4002 lin... | |
| Any Walker SST users? Trelja is exactly correct. I just talked with Lloyd to confirm: he says, as Trelja points out, the silver is in an organic oil suspension (carrier). The oil is not very conductive and will show no conductivity with a multimeter due to the low volt... | |
| Roomsize for Avalon eidolon or opus ceramic Foghost, in a former home, my Eidolons sounded just fine in a room of about the same volume as yours. The challenge for me was pulling them far enough out from the front wall and the side walls for smoothest response and best sound staging. As lon... | |
| Any Walker SST users? Your SST is fine as long as you only used a couple of drops of canola oil. For whatever reason, lots of folks have reported that sticking multimeter probes in SST will not show any result. If you have any concerns about this, call Walker Audio at ... | |
| Next on the list for Mahler.... The Mahler Symphony No. 3 that Slipknot mentions would be my recommendation for your next experience with Mahler. After that, I'd recommend you listen to the Sym No. 8 and then the No. 6. Recommendations for these are:Sym No. 3: Horenstein/LSO, No... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Montepilot, I agree with Slipknot's recommendation of the Holst "Savitri" on Argo ZNF 6 (and later as ZK 78). This is always my demonstration LP for someone who wants to hear the singers actually moving across the stage both laterally and from bac... | |
| $1,000 to spend on room treatment.... FWIW, I've heard the results Sbank achieved in his room with his mix of custom and diy effort: simply outstanding. Brian @ sensiblesoundsolutions certainly allowed Sbank to accomplish a very positive transformation of his listening space at a very... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Foster, our groups share many similarities! Folks are having so much fun just visiting with each other and talking that it's been a little challenging for those who want to do some serious listening. So, we've worked pretty diligently each of the ... | |

| Whats on your turntable tonight? Lots of music playing today during our local audio group's gathering - a true vinyl fest! Here are some of the LPs playing while I was in the listening room (versus chatting in the room next door):Rimsky-Korsakov: Scheherazade, Reiner/CSO, RCA (Cl... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Hi Zaikesman, thanks for that great discussion of Jimmy Webb. I'm one of those who know his songs as presented by others, but don't know anything about him. I'll have to explore this more!. | |
| Atma-Sphere amps with Eggleston Andra II's As an MA-2 owner, I've been quietly reading this thread because I've never heard the MA-2s with the Andra IIs and they may well not be a good match with this particular speaker. However, unlike typical OTL amps, the MA-2s are designed with a low i... |
