Concentric drivers This is all new to me....my Tannoys sound great! | |
Tannoy Everyone?! with Leben CS600 or Pass XA25/30.5? @sandthemall I don't own a Lp12, not yet. I do however own the Ear 834P. I bought it used with the original tube (JJ I believe) installed. I have some replacement tubes for it put aside for some tube rolling. | |
Tannoy Everyone?! with Leben CS600 or Pass XA25/30.5? Surprised no one mentions Sugden, the originator of pure Class A solid state (1967). I drive my Tannoy Eaton Legacy's very well with the Sugden A21se signature. It has 30 watts 8 ohm, and 40 watts 4 ohm. Seems like enough power for me and my liste... | |
The best way to start adding A=analog to my system I have two turntable suggestions, both of which already come with a pre mounted cartridge, and both of which I own. The first is the Music Hall MMF-7.3 with Ortofon 2M Bronze, the second is the Avid Ingenium plug & play with a unbadged Rega ca... | |
Solid State Phono Stages Graham slee Era Gold V. Moving magnet only, but you can step up a moving coil with an appropriate SUT. Michael Fremer seems to like it a lot. I bought one a few years ago, I opted for the stereo/mono switch option. It is very nice. I use both a Je... | |
Cartridge Loading for a phono pre amp In general, you set the load impedance to 10x the internal impedance of the cartridge. So for example, if 30 ohms, 300 ohm loading is a good place to start. | |
Let me explain something to you jive turkeys. I did not know this..thanks dude.... | |
Why will no other turntable beat the EMT 927? @mijostyn subjective, poor excuse? How? Most everything in audio is "subjective". What you hear is not what someone else may hear, or even like or appreciate. Hence, the reason there is so many turntables, speakers, amps, headphones, etc.....some ... | |
Why will no other turntable beat the EMT 927? Such a broad statement...very subjective. What sounds good to you, may sound like crap to someone else. | |
Cassette decks. How good can it get? My Aiwa AdF770 3 head cassette deck with Dolby B, C, Hx Pro, micro grain dual capstan, blah blah blah...makes copies that are nearly indistinguishable from the original source. No joke (as Biden would say). Aiwa made some fantastic decks in the e... | |
Anti-skate problem with Rega RB303 tonearm @mijostyn that is what I’ve been doing with all my turntables, works perfectly. I disregard the recommended anti skate force and just watch how the stylus behaves in the dead wax/runout and set it accordingly. | |
GIK alternatives I recommend Acoustic Design Works. Got two 2" absorption panels covered in fabric, 24 inch hexagon, for only $107 plus the shipping, which was reasonable. I do like the GIK diffuser/absorption combo panels that I've seem on their website. They ar... | |
GIK alternatives @jpmanomet I agree, great company. I too ordered a panel as well as a roll of fabric, showed up at my door in just 3 days. Nice quality. | |
TANNOY will stop Hi-FI ? Not to reignite an older thread, but out of curiosity, I contacted Audio Emotion in UK Scotland to inquire about the coatbridge factory. They claim that it is not entirely closed yet, in fact they said they are expecting a new shipment of tannoy s... | |
Low Level Listening and Distortion All I know is that a lot of people choose the Sugden A21, A21se signature because it excels at low volume listening. It is a pure class A solid state amplifier. Mine sounds excellent at lower volumes, especially driving a 10 inch dual concentric d... |
