Progress at londondecca.com I started with a Decca Jubilee on an RB300 - they went fine together. @bdp24 How about a Decca on an SME arm/table, amplified by Musical Fidelity and Quad, feeding Quad ESLs? | |
Progress at londondecca.com The effective mass is said to be 12g, so it should be OK from that point of view. You might ask in the long Decca thread at Lenco Heaven whether anyone has used them together. https://www.lencoheaven.net/forum/index.php?topic=545.0 | |
How often to you clean vinyl and the needle? LPs get cleaned on acquisition, given a new inner sleeve, and then cleaned again whenever I think they need it. A good clue is when flecks of dust will not blow off despite a treatment with an anti-static device. A soft stylus brush before each s... | |
Rega p10 vs SME 12A It's cheaper in the long run to get the best right at the start than to buy lesser tables along the way. One issue with Rega tables is that you are locked into using their cartridges to get the correct VTA, unless you are willing to employ shims u... | |
Led Zeppelin IV vinyl Don't worry, I wasn't being serious. Andrew was a boyfriend long before I met her in 1976. Chris | |
Led Zeppelin IV vinyl I have an original 1971 UK pressing, but I had to marry the owner to acquire it. Should I be concerned that it says "To Pippa, love Andrew"? | |
Progress at londondecca.com Things are happening over at londondecca.com - https://www.londondecca.com/ld-shop/cartridges Not yet functional, but the Maroon, Maroon Mono, Super Gold, Jubilee and Reference are to be sold there. And prices haven’t jumped as much as I feared, ... | |
Any phono preamps with volume control? Also the Quad 24p. Not dreadfully expensive and designed by Tim deParavicini! | |
Anyone Listen Extensively To V1 Of The Musical Fidelity Nu Vista Vinyl Phono Stage? @neonknight I may experiment with the SUT later, but so far I’m using it ’straight’ as in the photo. I liked the Quad 24p and SUT for the warmth of the combo. The NuVista is also Rubenesque but not so much so as the Quad. Of the four cartridges... | |
Anyone Listen Extensively To V1 Of The Musical Fidelity Nu Vista Vinyl Phono Stage? And I just did. I'll give it a month and decide, but so far, so good! | |
My Analog Journey - Opinions Sought @dogberry I am first and foremost a music fan. I didn't realize this was an exclusive group. I was just excited to share my experience. @audionoobie I wasn't referring to you! You are more than welcome here. | |
Anyone Listen Extensively To V1 Of The Musical Fidelity Nu Vista Vinyl Phono Stage? I should give mine another chance. Maybe make some heads explode by using it with an SUT! | |
My Analog Journey - Opinions Sought Funny how streaming fans like to hang around here. Perhaps they think they are missing something... I have to add the obvious comment: there are recordings so good that they stand out almost whatever you play them on. But if you know that recordi... | |
Anyone Listen Extensively To V1 Of The Musical Fidelity Nu Vista Vinyl Phono Stage? I have a NuVista Vinyl MkI, and do appreciate the options. It reveals details that other phono stages have not, but there is one thing to be very careful with - switch it off before plugging in or disconnecting the inputs! Doing so with the power ... | |
I'm new to Step Up Transformers I have two low-output MI cartridges, one of 0.4mV output, which requires an MC input or external SUT, and the other with 1mV output sounds better that way (but could be connected via an MM input and the gain turned way up). I have three ways of d... |
