| nottingham 294 or spacedeck Mikeyaya, How much better is the Dais in your opinion. I went straight from the Horizon to the Dais so I don't really know. The Dais was obviously a lot better than the Horizon, but I still think the Horizon sounded pretty darn good. | |
| Selling Large Speakers - How to reduce shipping? I have used Pilot Air Freight a few times now and there prices are great and so is there service and I have had no problems with damage. If I am shipping large speakers no matter what I will build a custom pallet for them and strap them together t... | |
| New to Vinyl - Need Some Advice The instructions for the Nottingham Tables are legendary bad. I can't believe they haven't done something about it. They were even grilled in an Absolute Sound review recently for it. Your cueing device should not be affected by the VTA (height of... | |
| is audiogon good for the audio industry or bad? Well said Scpetscott. I've been to more than a few hi end stores and have been very disappointed with the service and most of all the sound. In fact I've never went to a store and heard something and though I've got to have that. Not to mention at... | |
| Sunday morning music...what's spinning? I listened to David Murray's Children LP this morning. | |
| cartridge installation on Nottingham TT Yep, I did it and it was no problem. Just make sure you get a good pair of tweezers and pull on only the connector. You'll be fine. Then again if you feel you are clumsy with small intricate things you might want to get a friend to help. I helped ... | |
| Upgrade speaker cables OR amp for Dynaudio C4's? Far be it from me to contradict Mr. Porter, but I had both the JC-1s and the VTL 450s at the same time and I chose the JC-1s for a couple of reasons. First off the 450s put out a TON of heat. They also are chock full of tubes which mean problems w... | |
| Can digitizing vinyl match CD? I am using the Alesis Masterlink and my secret weapon for getting great sounding recordings to CD is using the Wadia 17 Analog to Digital converter. I go record out of my preamp into the Wadia and then XLR digital to the Masterlink. Compared to us... | |
| Most musical player or DAC? I've owned Wadias, Audio Aero Capitole, Ayre D1xe, Wavelength Cosecant, all pretty pricey players and DACs, some over 10K. My favorite digital gear of them all has been the 500 dollar MHDT Paradisea+ DAC. If you want a musical DAC under a grand yo... | |
| Should I mod my original MHDTParadisea or uprade I tried the WE 396 tube that was so highly acclaimed. I didn't like it at all, so I bought another one thinking there must be something wrong. I didn't like sample number 2 either. I far preferred the stock tube, which has me thinking I must have ... | |
| Should I mod my original MHDTParadisea or uprade I'd wait till the version 3 arrives and then decide. | |
| Narrowed speaker selection down to 5 choices I am thinking the same as you are and looking at some of the same speakers. I don't even know where to begin. You can read reviews I guess and go to dealers to hear them but until you get them home only then will you know. I guess the only way is ... | |
| Narrowed speaker selection down to 5 choices Have you had a chance to listen to any of these yet? | |
| How Important is Getting Your Rack Out I don't know if I agree. I used to have a setup that had amp stands on the floor and a CD player on a stand on the floor also leaving the middle completely open. I don't think I've ever achieved the kind of physically tangible depth that I got wit... | |
| Turn your Ipod into a Wireless Music Server/Remote Ernie. Is the sound playing through the Audio Engine transmitter the same as if you were to plug the ipod directly into the Y cable from the headphone jack? I would assume not, since I have tried plugging an Ipod directly into my stereo and the re... |
