| anybody modded a Sophia music baby? I agree with the above posts, the Baby is a very under-rated amp for the money. I have owned a couple of these, and upgrading the coupling caps provided a modest but noticeable difference in the sound. I found the biggest improvements were upgradi... | |
| Oh, the frustrations of the speaker search Interesting responses so far. Without knowing anything about your room or your gear, but based on your mix of musical preferences I would have suggest you check out the following:1- Vandersteen (new or used, whichever model works in your room)2- (... | |
| It's time for a new button on Audiogon Interesting post and responses. Personally, I will almost never buy anything where the ad lists "price is firm"; not because I think that the item is priced too high (although that is often the case), but because it represents to me a basic inflex... | |
| Opinions - Best Sound at T.H.E. Newport 2013 Show? I agree with the OP - I thought that the Earo room was simply marvelous and sublime. The Ulf speakers sounded great, and the new "Wally" wall-mount units sounded much better than I was expecting. The Dirac room correction made a huge difference, s... | |
| Small Speakers For A Large Room... I will second the recommendation for the KEF LS50, and assuming that you can mate them to the right amp they sound wonderful.Another couple of speaker lines you might consider looking and listening to are the JM Reynaud and Triangle stand mount mo... | |
| OMA Soundsmith Cartridge I have a couple of Schick tonearms, and I use them exclusively with Ortofon SPU and Denon DL-103R (stock and modified) cartridges and I'm extremely happy with the performance.I have tried the OMA/Soundsmith cartridge yet, but if it is like Peter's... | |
| Mounting a Mono cartridge If your mono cartridge has four pins, it's technically a dual-mono cartridge. Just connect it as you would any stereo cartridge. A true mono cartridge (one channel only) will have two pins, and will require a little more work to mount on a standar... | |
| Integrated amp choice for JMR Offrande Supreme V2 I had a pair of original Offrandes for a couple of years. I ultimately sold them because they just didn't work in my small (12 x 14) room, but I think that these are a very special speaker design.I tried a variety of amps with these speakers, but ... | |
| What is the Phono stage you have finished with? After hearing the Zesto Andros PS 1 I would totally endorse that phono stage...totally.It's considered good etiquette on this forum to declare yourself as a dealer for the product that you are schilling. | |
| Turntable with stable speed. I agree w/ all that Drpank said above, except that I would advise the OP to consider a couple of things. It is equally important to (1) drive (accelerate) a platter to the right speed, then to (2) maintain it at that speed, and finally to (3) mini... | |
| Sneaky new internet tax pushing through fast If you collect taxes in the seller's state it's not a sales tax, it's an excise tax. I don't believe that the states are going to stand for that. They want their piece of the pie that has been disappearing (been previously uncollectible) on the in... | |
| Sneaky new internet tax pushing through fast I am just wondering how many of you guys who Tea Baggers who constantly decry a smaller government and less entitlements are collecting Social Security and Medicare?For Timrhu: the reason why the Feds can administer an Internet Sales Tax is becaus... | |
| room dimention question Catfishbob,Sit in a lower chair.But seriously, you can treat the ceiling just like you would treat the side walls in a problematic room by use of absorption panels or diffusors. While these treatments are not as good as having the perfect room dim... | |
| Will a Sonos Connect Zone Player 90 recognize 5G I do not believe that the Squeezebox, or any other streaming music player I am aware of, supports 5G WIFI (but I could be wrong). It's too new. It should work just fine on your 2.4Ghz network.There could be many reasons for dropouts including weak... | |
| CJ Premier 12's or LP 140's with Dynaudio C-1ii Both the CJ-12 and LP 140 are great amps, but I wouldn't mate either to any Dynaudio speaker. Been there, done that. I had a Premier 11a and tried to get used to the sound when I mated it to a pair of Contour 3.3s. IMO, Dynaudio speakers are just ... |
