| Any recommendations 78 rpm audiophile turntable? Not cheap any longer, but the Garrard 301 is hard to beat. | |
| Best int. amp for AKG K1000's-Cary, Manley, Creek? Try the Sonic Impact before spending more. While I think the T-Amp is rubish with speakers (mine are 96db at 4ohm-near ideal), it really improves with headphones-particularly Senn 650's and AKG 1000's. Quite frankly, with the Senn 650's the SI doe... | |
| What is the best value you have encountered? The Denon Dl 103R stretches the dollar further than anything else I've come across in this mixed up hobby. | |
| Is Preamp overkill for me? You might consider the Luminous Audio Axiom passive pre. At $150, it's quite inexpensive, you'll get a 30day money back, and the designer will customize it to fully drive your amp. | |
| AKG Acoustics K1000 Headphones I've heard a buddies pair at his place several times. They are very dynamic and detailed, very open for headphones. If you have a big noggin they can squeeze the bejesus out of you. I didn't want to stretch my friends band, I'm sure it could be im... | |
| Super Amp? The folks at the Decware forum are a good bunch, on the whole. Several of them have moved on to or have experience with other amps. Perhaps someone there has heard the Cary and the Zen, side by side. I have not, though I am familiar with the Wrigh... | |
| Super Amp? Tt, What is it about the Cary 2A3 that you want to change? Have you ever heard a 300b SET? What attracts you the Decware? | |
| I want to try a MM I have used a Grado Ref on my Scout in my second system. It will certainly add warmth. In addition, it has outstanding presence and detail throughout the midrange. Definately worth trying, and highly underrated in my opinion. That said, I prefer t... | |
| Good Headphones...What should I Get?... Wellen, If found myself in your postion, I would choose exactly the same equipment! | |
| Does your system have jump? Can we all agree this thread has reached it's limit? | |
| Good Headphones...What should I Get?... I drive my Senn HD650's with a SI T-Amp via an ASL UHC with spectacular results. Prior to installing the T-Amp, I had planned to purchase a Singlepower MPX. I found a local headphone nut who happened to have a Supra on hand and invited me over to ... | |
| I have my table now I need a phono, please help Your list is well considered. I just want to point out the Wright has a rather strong following with posters at the Asylum. Opinions of this unit are universally positive, and it has compared favorably to several on your list. If one were to come ... | |
| Does your system have jump? Garrard 301 with OL Encounter and DL 103R. It has jump, jive and wail in spades | |
| Upgrading my SET amplifiers? The Wright 3.5's are great amplifiers and a great value. I had a buddies pair in my system on loan for a few weeks while he was traveling on biz. I enjoyed them immensely. However, I must say that I when they were returned and my Korneff 45 SE was... | |
| VPI Scout Placement Don't give it a second thought ol' boy. My time is plentiful and my words cheap ;)Ready made-look at the Gingko Cloud. They have supports custom sized for the Scout. Further, Harry Weisfield fully endorses their products. That's not something he d... |
