| Which Mid Level Turntables Ship Well and Are Foolproof? Why limit yourself by a table that might ship well and be lesser performance as opposed to spending the same amount on a better table? I would just do your due diligence with the seller and make sure it going to be packed correctly etc so on. The... | |
| turntables Sure why not give it a shot. You don't have to buy an expensive stylus. But you do have to mount it correctly. | |
| What type of Audio Gal or Guy are you? Do You Know? Music first for me. I try to get out to hear something live once per week so I keep my ears tuned. The gear comes second as that just passes the time and is an effort in itself sometimes not really having anything to do with music. I don't have an... | |
| Rogue Cronus Magnum II and Vandersteen 3A Signature combination I have heard that combo because I had that about 6 years ago. It's a good combination. I was generally pleased with the sound. The Vandies are reasonably efficient and the Rogue has good headroom not exactly 3 db or double power but adequate. I we... | |
| Best Integrated, period. You did not mention tubes or SS so I will mention the Rogue Cronus Magnum KT100 tubes. Puts out 100 preside,has ample inputs, dual outs for bi-amping or headphone amp if you wish. I owned one for about 2 years. It was trouble free well built, vers... | |
| Grado Questions Hi Johnnyb53 its an original from 1976. Judging from the performance of the old stylus in the cartridge body its sounds fine in that nothing dropping out, or shorting out. I just feel the old XTZ stylus is not quite as revealing as a new one could... | |
| Tech needed for mod in Los Angeles or other. Thank you. | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? I liked the Vandersteen 3aSigs vertically bi-amp with VTL mono blocks and 2-2wq subs. The last Vandi I owned were Mod 5 sigs like them a lot and kept them for awhile. When I heard Von Schweikerts that was a game changer for me. Started out with vr... | |
| What speakers for 10k? End of game to me means either you don't want to upgrade and be on that path of constant up grading or maybe your just tired of it. I developed my ears first by going to and still require some kind of live experience once every 2 weeks of either c... | |
| Sub suggestions When I was running a sub in my 2 channel system the Vandersteen Sub swq or whatever its called now sounded very good. Used them in a pair and as a single sub. They were musical, quick, stable and went deep. It integrated well in to the system musi... | |
| Speakers to hang on to for LIFE That brings back a memory. I built a kit from Fried call the super monitor and a couple of revisions after that. I always had a soft spot for that. Perhaps because I built it. It went deep, shook the walls, clear and clean with not much electronic... | |
| Speakers to hang on to for LIFE von schweikert vr2s which I own. I also own vr4 II with the factory mod to vr5s. Perfect for me. Either one with the favorite being the vr4-5s. | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? Von Schweikert VR-4 MkII with the 5 mod from the factory. Clean sound, articulate, spatially accurate, intimately satisfying on small groups or solo. Sounds live like real music does. Real music like an orchestra the sound is a bit jumbled, separa... | |
| Review: Vandersteen 3a Sig Speaker I owned a set of 3a Sigs for 6 years and Mod 5s for a bit. While bass was ok it did not hit the bottom octave so I used them with dual Vandie Subs. It was able to reproduce ANYTHING. As I recall they were always easy on the ears sometimes a bit un... | |
| We Need An Audiophile TV Channel Waste of time on TV. There have been shows (not many) like this on radio which IMO reached a wider audience. They covered everything between high end and entry. |
