| Turntable set up HELP I hate to go here, but is the stylus still attached to the cantilever? | |
| Opinions on the new Ron McMaster BN reissues? OK, I only have two the, already mentioned, "Maiden" Voyage, and "The Sidewinder". I can only compare the Hancock with my older CD issue. First, the RVG CD does not have any surface noise. Good start. It is clearer and fuller than my earlier CD is... | |
| Denon DP-1200 turntable Many of the better Japanese DD turntables had a magnetic strip, somewhat like magnetic tape, around the inside circumferance of the platter. A magnetic head read the tape and worked as a servo, continuously adjusting the speed. This was the precur... | |
| Oregon Audiophiles... Mike, just answering the questions asked, "How Many Oregonians Are Here On Audiogon? How the heck are you. We oughta slug some suds one of these days.Best,Marty | |
| Local dealer cuts store in half says audio is dead I suppose that it depends on if you look at the store as half empty, or half full. | |
| Oregon Audiophiles... I'm an Oregonian, and, well I'm reading this, so I must be here on Audiogon! | |
| The LP says A1 and B3 what does this mean Here ya go dude, everything you ever wanted to know about Floyd pressings:http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/PFArchives/discTOC.htmBTW the bootleg, "Screaming Abcabs" is a must own. | |
| Sources for Dynaco Stereo 70. Thanks you all for all of the great insight and guidance. It's always great to participate in this forum to get a diversity of ideas. I have my work cut out for me.I should clarify that a friend gave me a PAS preamp and I have done about half of t... | |
| Speed Tweaks? Mark Kelly over at Vinyl Asylum is an expert on motor controllers, you might ask him. I believe that he designed the controller for the $40,000 dollar Saskia turntable. Of course, Rega has dealt with these issues, first by hard mounting the motor ... | |
| Has anyone considered reverse stereo playback? I sit behind the speakers, so that I get no direct sound at all. Every sound is an ambient sound and the perspective is exactly as you suggest, from the audience point of view, rather than from the concert stage. I tried simply turning my chair, s... | |
| IMHO, not enough gain in my Phono stage Are you sure that you have a Denon 130, not a DL-160 or DL-110? If it is one of the later, the output is only 1.6mv, and although it is designed to be used into the MM stage of your phono preamp, most MM cartridges have an output of between 3.5 an... | |
| Solid State Amps for Quad ESL 57? Back in the day, the SS amps that paired well with the Quads were the Levinson ML-2, the Bedini 25/25, the Pioneer M-22, and the Classe DR-2. | |
| Anyone compared epos 12.2 to monitor audio rs-6? For a short time, I owned the RS-6s and in another room, and another house, and another system, owned the EPOS ES-12s, not the 12.2. I won't get into matters of preference, or audio memory, but I will say that IMHO the right size room for the MAs ... | |
| OJC LP Reissues??? I have a different point of view. First, to answer your question, these are not pressed by Scorpio. The older Fantasy pressings are much better sounding than most of the OJCs which sound a bit hazy to me, as if the lens has been twisted slightly o... | |
| Predicting the AGon economy? "I'm no expert on economics, but it seems that even this market should have an optimal time to buy." Josh, it's always the summer. Less goods coming onto the board, many, many, less buyers, and prices are much lower. Sell in winter, buy in summer. |
