| Looking for an amp....Opinions about Odyssey or Bel Canto audio anyone? You can't go wrong with either. My Bel Canto customer service was fantastic, and talking with Klaus was engaging and fun. They're both well-made and fantastic sounding. Winner, winner, chicken dinner. | |
| The "how many reviews it got" rule ^^^^^True. I can't speak for anyone else, but I have to remind myself every now and then that just because a particular component doesn't make a "Recommended Components" listing doesn't mean it can't hang with the ones that did. Perhaps it just di... | |
| Recommend Affordable Integrated Amps (Solid State or Tube) +1 for the Parasound. They make good stuff and the Halo is legendary | |
| Recommend Affordable Integrated Amps (Solid State or Tube) Based on your listening preferences and speakers (89db/8ohms) and budget for an integrated with a built-in phono stage, the LSA Statement comes to mind, as does just about any Luxman integrated. | |
| The "how many reviews it got" rule It's akin to writing a reference letter or a letter of recommendation. If a student asks me for one and I have negative things to say, I'll pass on writing the letter rather than writing a negative letter. If I really have to write one, I'll couch... | |

| Best Cartridge for $1000-$1350? The Bluepoint is a fine sounding cartridge in of itself. Especially with the RPM3. But +1 for the Shelter - simply incredible and .5mVAlso +1 for the Hana SH or SL. Stereophile raves about them in their newest issue. I have the SL on my Sumiko FT-... | |
| In need high-efficency speakers Check out Decware speakers. Talk to Steve there (owner and designer) and tell him your details. He'll advise you. Disclosure: I do not own Decware amps or speakers. But I did spend a happy listening afternoon in the Decware workshop. | |
| Jolida JD-9 MC-High issue with severe distortion/clipping Thanks for the advice all. I've gone back to using the MM setting and the high output RCA's. @soundermn has a point with the tubes - the GE 5751's are higher gain than the stock 12ax7's that came with the unit.
