| Power supply for Cambridge Audio Azur 651P phono ? Again, give up your ad hominem rambling; only a child takes offense when his toy is criticized. The OP doesn't want a 640 as he already has a 651; what he wants is an enhanced power supply, and I am the only one in the thread that made a viable su... | |
| Magic Cables and Tubes I'm not sure what a musical instrument has in common with cables or tubes, but you are correct, the whole affair does call into question the efficacy of blind testing.If you read the summary of the test, the unsighted violin players certainly hear... | |
| Will a Rogue 88 tube power amp drive Sensitivity is 83db with a 4 ohm load. It wouldn't work for me by a long shot, but in a small room, if one's preference is lower listening levels and simple music, it might be a go. | |
| Power supply for Cambridge Audio Azur 651P phono ? Snarky yes, hoarder no. I'm down to only three. Need I point out that your ad hominem post still does not help the OP from a contextual standpoint? | |
| Glaring Omissions Mitch, that's fine, but you also said that you could not get past the poor recorded quality of Charlie Parker. That seems not to be a prefence in music, but one of recorded quality. Are you saying that this prevents you from enjoying any of our mu... | |
| Power supply for Cambridge Audio Azur 651P phono ? We're all trying to find the best bang for the buck, so something may sound nice, but not really be competitive within it's price class. "Seriously nice sounding", is unfortunately not a comparative statement. When I owned the 640P I found it bett... | |
| Power supply for Cambridge Audio Azur 651P phono ? I believe that Dusty Vawter at Channel Islands Audio can make one up for you. I also think that, for the combined price, you can have a much better phono stage. YMMV. | |
| Top 10 Snafus to avoid when building a good rig And that would make it somehow different from all of the other threads on Audiogon? | |
| Why not horns? OK, back to the horn thing. I just got a pair of Altec 19s a few weeks ago and they are sounding great. Less efficient than my Cornwalls and less forward as well, but they have fantastic impact. I feel like I am in that Maxell ad every time I turn... | |
| Some irrefutable truths about rock and roll Ya Bill is a great guy, and like this thread, he keeps coming back on Audiogon from the dead. | |
| Manual for Micro Seiki DD30 Turntable The best thing for a Micro user is to join the Micro User group on Yahoo. I am a member and have found the group to be invaluable in getting info on my Micro gear.If it exists, they will have access to it. | |
| The State of Jazz His wife, Renee Rosnes, ain't chopped liver either. | |
| Best cartridge to reduce hum under $400 USD The Kugelarm is a very heavy tonearm, suitable for Denon 103s and the like. I can't imagine that adding effective mass with a Grado cartridge will be moving in the correct direction. | |
| Linn Basik LVX vs. Rega RB 303 I wouldn't do it. I don't care for the sound of Rega arms on the Linn tables, though others swear by them, and the blue is designed with the Rega arms as the design center. The Rega arm will certainly sound different, but better...that's another s... | |
| Large Room which speakers? No question, for me Altec Magnificents, EV Patricians or Klipsch Jubilee. |
