| Battle of affordable pre-amps: Rotel vs Parasound My general listening setup consists of a (Rotel) RC1090 pre, RB-1092 amp, RCD-1055, RLC-1040 & B&W N804 with a ASW800 sub. A nearby lightening strike disabled my RC-1090. Filed my damage request with APC (they made the RLC-1040)and thye to... | |
| Where do you go after a Dynaudio C1 ? Another I could recommend is the Joseph Audio Pulsar. A fine review just done is Stereophile | |
| Where do you go after a Dynaudio C1 ? Sonus faber Guaneri Momento or Evolution. End of story. | |
| An SACD question Still buying - I got in the game late. | |
| Does Dynaudio match Mcintosh MC275? I would have to say YES. Go over to Audio Afficionado and ask - lots of good knowledge there and friendly members, too. | |
| subs for Sonus Faber Cremona M floor standing I have owned JL, Velodyne, Dynaudio, B&W and ML subs. My current sub I won't replace - REL Britainnia 1 (B1). | |
| Defective REL G1 Subwoofers I have owned Dynaudio, B&W, ML, SVS, JL and REL subs (B1 & B2). By far, for music, the REL is the king. No issues whatsoever with my RELs - not so much with the other (B&W no problems either). | |
| Nick Lowe Also check out Little Village - a group with Nick, John Hiatt, Jim Keltner and Ry Cooder. A nice combo of excellent musicians.Little Village | |
| Surface noise What do you use to align your Grado cartridge? | |
| Surface noise I don't feel that 1.5gms is too light. Deep down your grooves may be just dirty OR your LPs are worn. Are you using a RCM (record cleaning machine w/a vacuum)? | |
| New Lyra Delos Cartridge 100 ohms will work fine with this cartridge - that is what I was using before 500 ohms was suggested to me. To be honest - I heard no real sonic improvement/difference between the two. The Delos is a magnificent cartridge for the money. | |
| New Lyra Delos Cartridge Thanks for that bit of importnat information. I, too,misinterpreted the Delos instructions. | |
| Can my room support the Dynaudio C4s? IMHO, for your room size I think the C4s are too much. The C1s, Sonus faber Auditor Ms or Joseph Audio Pulsars would be perfect for that room size. Use a REL sub base system (G2) for the lower octaves. | |
| converting Rega to balanced output? Wait until you progress to the P9.... | |
| McIntosh C220 I opted for the C2200 (recommended to me by Frank Gow) and then upgraded to the C2300. I chose the C2300 over the C220 because 1) meters in case I use non-metered amps 2) MC phono stage 3) able to change pre settings with the remote from my listen... |
