| recommendation for a high end analog system I just recently upgraded my vinyl setup with a Technics SL-1200G with a Clearaudio Charisma MM cart, going into a Herron Audio VTPH2a phono stage and a Herron Audio VTSP-360 line stage; never knew vinyl could sound like that before!!! | |
| What is the actual percentage of people exclusively listening to vinyl vs digital? I used to listen to digital exclusively for many a decade; had records, but they just didn't thrill me on the system I had. I recently upgraded my analog system, and it's like listening to those records again for the first time, they sound so diff... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Hard to say - I've got a few hundred records and I like to just close my eyes and pull them out at random; I come across things I haven't heard in many a decade that are surprisingly good, especially with an upgraded vinyl system.... | |

| Brand Synergy It can't hurt! Personally, I like to do it; I've got an MSB power amp, DAC/preamp, and Universal Disc Player, and Herron Audio phono stage and line stage preamps... | |

| Preamp for Herron VTPH-2A BTW, Keith has upgraded the VTSP-360 to the VTSP-Ref; I just bought one a few weeks ago, along with a VTPH-2A. Both sound AMAZING going into my MSB S-200 power amp and Harbeth Super HL-5 speakers, and they're still a long way from being fully brok... | |

| Is louder better? What??? | |
| MSB S202 Stereo Amplifier - what's the experience so far? I've got an MSB S-200 power amp and an Analog DAC. That power amp is awesome no matter what the source. I thought I had great digital sound with the Analog DAC/S-200 - had it that way for many a year - but just upgraded my vinyl system and got a H... | |
| Reccomend a good preamp for me. Herron Audio VTSP-360 ESP is absolutely superb - do some online searches on gear from Herron Audio; I just got a phono preamp and a line-stage preamp from Keith Herron, and yeah, his gear really is as good as everybody goes on about, and he's a pl... | |
| Why would anyone want class AB amp when class A always sounds better ? Anytime I see the word 'always' in statements like this..... next! | |
| New-ish to Audiogon Forums... Is it always like this? I find the same thing with other things besides audio. I'm a photographer - how many times have I been asked 'What's the best camera?' without having any idea of what they're going to use it for. I can never answer a question like that; all I can ... | |
