| KAB 1200 vs. everything else. 12-24-08: PaulyTvad, with all due respect you are expecting too much from the Technics. The KAB modified tables are fine tables, but by sticking on expensive peripherals (and I use the term peripherals loosely) like a 2K cart and 5K phono youll o... | |
| Help Me Justify Recent MMF7 purchase I owned a MMF-7 and replaced it with a Technics SL1200 MK II. The Technics sounds better to me...more accurate, less distortion.I never regretted selling the MMF-7. Sorry to be so blunt, but you asked... | |
| KAB 1200 vs. everything else. My KAB Technics has the fluid arm damper, tone arm rewire, external power supply, Zupreme headshell, Neuance platform, and a $2000 Dynavector cartridge (previously have used a Benz Micro Ace medium, and an Audio Technics AT150Mlx). I have set up t... | |
| KAB 1200 vs. everything else. It is rock-solid and will provide more music than ANY CD player.Lindisfarne (Threads | Answers)I disagree. I'll take my silver disc player over the KAB Technics any day.To my ears, the KAB Technics is essentially a high end CD player with pops, cl... | |
| KAB 1200 vs. everything else. I own a KAB Technics table. I believe Kevin is being extremely optimistic in his $4500-$5000 estimate. However, I'm also certain one could find people who prefer a KAB Technics to $4500-$5000 (or higher priced) table, just as one could find other ... | |
| Amp and Pre to match Wilson W/P 8 and others "The other (cheaper) choice I had in mind was Pass XP-20 and XA100.5/X350.5) "This is one hell of a "cheaper" choice.I'd take it in a heartbeat. Cheaper or not. I listen to lots of rock...progressive, metal, and blues. | |
| Anyone have any experience with the Tunami GPX-R ? I don't use the Acrolink. I exchanged it for a Tunami GPX. I now own five GPX. | |
| Anyone have any experience with the Tunami GPX-R ? Al, the cord I ordered with C004/P004 connectors was with Acrolink wire, not Oyaide wire, so it's not comparable from a parts aspect. | |
| Anyone have any experience with the Tunami GPX-R ? Oh yeah. You're right.I ordered an Acrolink cord with C004/P004 connectors, and I confused the two. | |
| best preamp under 4000 to match 4b sst A tube preamp using 6922, 12AU7 or 6SN7 tubes can be "warmed up" by installing warm sounding tubes.Lamm LL2 Deluxe, Audio Horizons TP 2.1, First Sound Presence Deluxe II all qualify. I'm not familiar with the BAT.I'd avoid tube preamps based on 6H... | |
| Anyone have any experience with the Tunami GPX-R ? I use GPX Tunami power cords. They have C004/P004 connectors. I do not know what the "Special Edition" versions of the C004 and P004 connectors entail, except they are grey and mine are red. | |
| VAC owners, sound off Tholt, I agree. VAC may state an output impedance of 350, but it doesn't tell the whole story because output impedance varies with frequency. Output impedance may be significantly higher in the lower bass frequencies, which would correspond with w... | |
| Anyone using the Transistor Research LabsM 225's 12-22-08: GrannyringI did not hear the SE version of the Nuforce amps, but it seems Ecruz thinks even the D225 amp surpassed it.Ecruz stated he did not hear the SE version of the NuForce Ref9V2, so any judgement he made was regarding the non-SE ve... | |
| VAC owners, sound off Did you mention Audio Horizons in particular because you think it will better suit my needs or because they are a company with a 30 day? (or both)Tholt (Threads | Answers)I mentioned the AH preamp because it has a low output impedance spec that sh... |
