| Recommendations for a jazz record which demonstrates vinyl superiority over digital @richardbrand I will below note the systems I have available to compare on the bottom for info only. If you want to compare a Jazz LP to streaming I would suggest as others have Dave Brubeck Time Out, but specifically the 45rpm version. Having tr... | |
| room treatment gurus, please Having tried three types of room treatment in two awkward rooms and comparing these to a one room that is close to ideal. I tried Dirac (Datasat and others), Trinnov (both multi and 2 channel / 2.2 channel) and Lyngdorf "roomperfect". Only Trinno... | |
| DarTzeel’s new direction I am suspecting (reading / hearing) also saturation of persons prepared to have red and gold kit. {acknowledging some will say it is beautiful). Also agreeing on the only so many $250k amps, is this a case of want to or have to? I love red and cou... | |
| Developing A List Of Tonearm Candidates For A SOTA Turntable @rauliruegas No 'immortals' here, simply applying engineering rigour in consideration to all the contributing factors, especially when there are those that outweigh direct VTA/SRA adjustment in their quantum. I had just incorporated it into my ... | |
| Which power cord should you buy first My experiments show a certain amount of system dependency, but all benefited from power amp being fairly high up the list, afterall. You are taking a fairly small signal and multiplying it with a voltage / current that you want to be as clean as ... | |
| Word Clock Cable Upgrade @jfrmusic @wsrrsw I did experiment on this about a decade ago with dCS scarlatti and then Vivaldi. I was using the ’basic’ cables dCS supplied and tried a Chord Signature, which was better and there was further improvement with a Solstace/Saru... | |
| Developing A List Of Tonearm Candidates For A SOTA Turntable @dover No, as I think you know, I did not make that statement. I was responding to the point made by the persons I quoted (who were I think a little fatigued with the to and fro on methods) that the reason I had explained my method in detail wa... | |
| Feel Silly Asking This Question Alignment Parameters @neonknight Apologies if you’ve go your answer or if this has already been said. I am only really chiming in because you’d noted the tracking issue with the OL protractor and what I latterly did using Baerwald improved my Agile set-up that I had ... | |
| Processor sound comparison- Anthem avm90 vs NAD M17 V2i Sorry not AAF, WAF | |
| Processor sound comparison- Anthem avm90 vs NAD M17 V2i I have had several Yamaha going back to 2070's with dolby surround back in the 1990's, Marantz (agree with you), Denon, reasonable but still with some of the issues of Marantz, Onkyo then another Yamaha separates. Then Datasat, good but the Dirac... | |
| Mark Knopfler & James Taylor Love many of the above mentioned and have seen Dire Straits and Mark Knopfler solo several times as I have Eagles when they’ve toured here and Fleetwood Mac. I have the box set of Sade’s albums but as yet have not see her live. A few less commonl... | |
| Developing A List Of Tonearm Candidates For A SOTA Turntable @mulveling and @neonknight I agree on VTA. As above I am in the ’club of’ find an optimal for what (thickness) you play most, set L/R balance for that VTA (I ultimately use a l/r balance record for that to also take into account anti-skate inf... | |
| Developing A List Of Tonearm Candidates For A SOTA Turntable @wrm57 I apologise I hadn't answered your question regarding 12" OL Arms. Yes I have and in fact I do have a 12" Enterprise arm, as when I bought the Sovereign it had that and the 12" Arm board, which fortunately for me is one you can swap over b... | |
| Developing A List Of Tonearm Candidates For A SOTA Turntable @dover "Please note that you are not "adjusting VTA" for the thickness of records, you are trying to correct the VTA for the variation in thickness of each record." There is enough question of the need for adjustment / correction or at least th... | |
| Developing A List Of Tonearm Candidates For A SOTA Turntable @neonknight P.S. I note you had used a Verismo before you got the Agile and this has the same Multi Wall Carbon Nanotube technology (MWCNT), developed on the Verismo. They now use this on the MC Diamond which I have on my latest OL Deck with the ... |
