| Speakers or Turntable upgrade I'll be honest, I've never been in love with the Paradigm Reference Studio 100's. I got them used back in 2018 because my Ex Wife decided to make me pick between a pair of Vandersteen 2CE Sigs or my upgraded Klipsch Chorus II's. I kept the Klips... | |
| Speakers or Turntable upgrade You would consider the goldenear triton one.r a good rock speaker? | |
| Speakers or Turntable upgrade The Concept is on my basement setup. I have a Dynavector 10x5 on it. I was looking for a third table for my office setup I'm not sure what I would get to replace the Paradigms. Maybe a pair of Klipsch Forte IIIs? I think a semi local deals ha... | |
| Rega Planar 3 upgrades I took Tooblue's advice and purchase a Vinyl Source custom arc protractor for Rega arms. I'll start with this since it's so affordable. They mentioned I could use this same protractor for my Clearaudio Concept. Cartridge Arc Alignment Protract... | |
| Rega Planar 3 upgrades This is probably a dumb question. I see some cheaper versions of the Feickert protractor on ebay for around $100. Would those be OK or do I need to spend $300 for the real deal? | |
| Ethernet Cables - what are you using and why? Home made Cat6e for everything hard wired to my router and switch. | |
| Fair price for used Vandersteen 3a Signatures Thank you for the advice on room size, positioning, and placement. I did some research last night and think I'm going to hold off for now. I used to have a pair of 2Ce signatures that were lost in a divorce settlement. Here is a bit of advice. ... | |
| Fair price for used Vandersteen 3a Signatures Thank you Kota1. I'm trying to decide between a new pair of 2CE Signature III's and a 10-year-old pair of well taken care of 3A signatures. Looking through the listing it seems the 3a signature sold market ranges from $1800 - $3000 depending on ... | |

| Cartridge for Clearaudio Concept TT The price jump is part of my issue Matt. A few years ago this same cart was $200 cheaper. At $450 I wouldn't have too many reservations on giving it a shot. At $650 it's starting to get into 2M Black territory, and $1K carts aren't that far off... | |
| Time for a new 2 channel amplifier - looking for suggestions Great suggestions everyone. I've crossed the Yamaha off my list. As appealing as those sexy VU meters and the vintage/rarity factor, that thing is one mishap from being a door stop. | |
| ... how important is Damping factor in determining what amp to buy That’s a good question. On the surface it looks like it should be very important. The higher the DF the better the sounds would be a reasonable assumption.Who wouldn’t want better control of the bass drivers? Wouldn’t that yield tight and accurat... | |
| Yamaha M-60 worth a refurb? The other reason that intrigues me about this amp is the class A mode. My Chorus II's are very efficient so I believe the amp would be in class A mode quite often.I liked the Rotel RB-1080 a lot better when it was driving a pair of Vendersteen 2C... | |
| Clearaudio Virtuoso Ebony Wood or Ortofon 2M Black Cartridge? What Johnnyb53 says makes a lot of sense to me. I have a Clearaudio concept TT with their basic MM cart. It's nowhere in the same league as the Virtuoso Ebony Wood. I've been kicking around upgrading the cart, and a local shop is pushing me to... | |
| When I have seen people listing their systems lately I think stand alone CD Players are mostly dead, but I don't think the Redbook CD format is dead. I differentiate CD players from universal disc players that player SACD, CD, DVD, and Blu Ray.My old standby player was a Rotel RCD-950. Having an I... |
