Need New MM Cartridge Recommendation
Thanks all! I'm knee deep in research thanks to everyone.  
Need New MM Cartridge Recommendation
Thanks folks!I may want to try something new, so I may avoid the Corus Black--even though it has been soooo great. I'd by the Ortofon 2M black in a heartbeat based on reviews if I hadn't spent so much money recently.  Now, I wonder if the AT150MLX...

Tim Schwartz at Bristol Electronincs in New Jersey. Pm me if you want his contact. He was fantastic!   
How can it be that some old recordings sound sublime?
I think we can all agree that it's a shame.  I want to go back to some of my favorite modern recordings (I'll define that as those made north of 1990) to see if any compete with the one from the original post.  For instance, I always believed Clap...

If ScottW is correct, his post makes this all the more intriguing because a student recorded this live work!And yes, I'm talking about Waltz for Debbie. I must've been tired when I posted. Nonetheless, it is one of the best live recordings ever.  
Is HDtracks better than Tidal? Do I need to do something with settings?
Thanks Everest.  Yes, I am very happy with the Node 2.  Strangely, I haven't tested the Node 2's own internal DAC. I've just been using it by toslink to feed my Creek Ruby DAC and it sounds amazing.  I may play around a bit. It seems, though, that...

Review: PSB Imagine T2 Speaker
Well the specs on the NAD should have been just fine to drive them.  My room is a rectangle, 13'x21'. I have them facing out from the 13' wall.  I install the plugs here and there. As the speakers have opened up I've used them less and less, and I...

I was really hoping for some advice here. Anyone!? Please, I could use it.   
Review: PSB Imagine T2 Speaker
Wadav,My sweet spot is fair--not overly tight.  If I have the speakers back toward the wall (regular listening and dancing with my daughter) they fill the room with sound and are pleasurable throughout.  For critical listening, I pull them out int... 
Should I buy a phono-pre or Creek phono board?
Yes, I have the tuner too.  It's superb.  The Creek Evolution 100A is a gem.  Just awesome.   
Should I buy a phono-pre or Creek phono board?
@scottwhit Yes, I bought it in December 2015.  It sounds superb.  I've been very impressed with it. I have not A-B'd it against anything directly, but I like what I hear for sure.  So simple, direct design.  Well worth $200, especially since there...
