| We Need To Talk About Ones And Zeroes “I am gonna have to disagree on this one” @mdalton I get where you’re coming from and comparison to Ptolemy’s geocentric model is a good analogy. I’m all for theory-based approaches, and I think skepticism is healthy, especially when people sta... | |
| We Need To Talk About Ones And Zeroes @devinplombier I appreciate your kind words on my system. NADAC stack is indeed a very ‘special’ product. It’s a shame that they didn’t gain much traction in US market. Thank you for your thoughtful response. Agreed, our ears are limited to p... | |
| We Need To Talk About Ones And Zeroes “Router, switches, Ethernet cabling and the like should have zero effect on sound quality“ @devinplombier You’re absolutely right from a purely technical and engineering standpoint. However, many experienced listeners here reported audible diffe... | |
| Garrard 301 - Project @larryi Noted. @noromance Side by Side (Acoustic Sounds Reissue) I am really enjoying this classic duo album where Hodges steps out front with Ellington’s graceful support. Swinging, relaxed, and full of lyrical alto work. | |
| Garrard 301 - Project @larryi @noromance There are bargain out there if you’re patient. I got my last pair of Telefunken 12AX7 NOS ( Made in W Germany) for under $100. Setup alerts on HiFi Shark and take your pick. | |
| Garrard 301 - Project @noromance I didn’t find anything else on Storyville Label that I couldn’t live without :-) | |
| Garrard 301 - Project @noromance Ben plays Ballads by Storyville is excellent. No surface noise, the pressing is made in EU. I am not easily impressed but this one is a keeper. I am going to look up this record label and see what else they’ve got. @macg19 Kenny... | |
| Garrard 301 - Project @macg19 In case you don’t own this title, very nice and clean record. https://a.co/d/daCwZyd | |
| Garrard 301 - Project @macg19 I had a feeling Tele NOS would be better since I am using quad of Tele NOS in my CD player. Speaking of tube rolling, I always wanted to try Amperex Bugle Boy 12AX7 but they are so rare and expensive. The reissues or newer tubes are pr... | |
| Garrard 301 - Project @noromance, @macg19 I have been listening to Telefunken NOS 12AX7 since yesterday after 4 days of break-in. Let me first say JJ 12AX7 are excellent tubes for the money. My biggest concern was noise with Tele NOS. Fortunately, they turned out to ... | |
| What is the most overlooked consideration? @2psyop My top criteria’s when choosing a gear; does it provide long-term musical connection. More importantly, does it invite me to play more music, not just “audiophile tracks”? Secondly, synergy and lastly designer’s (manufacturer) integrity... | |
| How are you playing your precious MONO Vinyl? @vinylrestingplace Thank you for your comprehensive summary of what’s required for high-quality mono and 78 RPM playback. You’ve outlined several key nuances that some of us may overlook or those newer to mono playback. Congrats on building a ... | |
| How are you playing your precious MONO Vinyl? @goofyfoot You’re absolutely justified in treating your earlier mono LPs differently from your later ones—and your eyes and ears are picking up what most overlook. | |
| Integrated that blew you away @goyescas What are your speakers? Speaker + Integrated synergy is very important so it would be helpful to know what speakers gel with this GATO Integrated. | |
| We Need To Talk About Ones And Zeroes I keep reading the same old stance from folks that either don’t stream or streaming for fun with their fancy analog or CD players. You know who you are :-) It’s not about the data but about the context (emotional, physical, psychological) in whi... |
