Good SS Amp for Vandies 2 Ce Another recommendation for Plinius (it's what I use with my 2Ce Signatures)... | |
Vandersteen Model 2Ce Signature II I don't have the "Mark II" version of the 2Ce Signature, but I use my 2Ce Sigs in a room that's a hair over 11' X 15'.They have probably 4 feet distance from the side walls with very little distance to the wall behind them, and they definitely sou... | |
Van Halen on 200 gram vinyl? Tbromgard,I wouldn't buy Twisted Sister either, but it seems a little sanctimonious to start pointificating about what deserves a reissue and what doesn't.You might love Jennifer Warnes, for example - but some audiophiles would prefer listening to... | |
Van Halen on 200 gram vinyl? Tbromgard - The AC/DC reissues are quite excellent - at least the ones with Bon Scott (the only era of the band I listen to).What exactly bothered you so much about these? Did you already have original pristine Australian pressings? Not all of us ... | |
Michell Tecnoweight + RB700 Tonearm - Reversible?? Hey Theo,Thanx for the safety warning! Most likely I'll stick with my Dynavector 10X5 for a cartridge...I'm very happy with the sound of the Dyna, and from what I've read, it's a very sensible match with the P5. | |
Michell Tecnoweight + RB700 Tonearm - Reversible?? Jaspert,I was simply curious to see how the Rega stands on its own without the frills - and it's also a way to confirm if the Tecnoweight is a truly audible difference.Is it easy to put the original Rega "stub" (I think that's what they call it) b... | |
THIN LIZZY best album? If anybody out there has UK Vertigo pressings of Night Life or Fighting, please send me an e-mail! | |
Carts option for Rega P5 + RB700 arm Nolitan,I'll be putting a Dynavector 10X5 onto a P5 in a few days, so I'll let you know. From what I find on the web, it sounds like a 2mm spacer is necessary, but I want to try it "au natural" to start off with.In advance, if anybody out there kn... | |
THIN LIZZY best album? I go with Live & Dangerous + Jailbreak...But Black Rose is awfully underrated. | |
How to fix woofer pumping Sometimes you don't have the option of moving your turntable - or anything else, for that matter.I got the KAB rumble filter - and believe me, it works like a charm.It does not have the slightest effect on playback. | |
Top 5 Rock n Roll Vocalists For vocalists that will always sound great, I'd go with these:Bon Scott (it's insane that no one mentions him!)Freddie MercuryRobert PlantPhil LynottI'd take Freddie over any other singer... | |
Need advice on amp to drive Vandersteen 2Cs I use a Plinius 8200 MKII with my 2CE Signatures, and I think it's a fantastic match.Just a word of caution - apparently the 8200 MK I (the earliest version) was not all that great - especially in the phono stage.Plinus was reported to have made a... | |
I always do something stupid... Best one for me is when I went to pick up my turntable from the shop - I had them install a Dynavector cartridge on it.When I got home to hook it up, I noticed that the freaking cantilever was bent about 45 degrees. Apparently, something happened ... | |
How to access power amp section of integrated amp I have a Plinius 8200 MKII driving 2Ce Signatures, and I'm pretty sure it's capable of this.You may want to check the manual online to make sure... | |
best vocal harmonies in rock Since most of the responses seem to be so focused on acoustic music, I'll throw out something more recent:Nickel CreekAt least in this decade, they were unsurpassed when it came to vocal harmonies... |
