| Two questions to make you mad. Not even mildly irritated. | |
| Magnepans and dogs @jrsyby I can't offer a scientific explanation but my two dogs enjoy my maggies as well. I was starting to wonder if they too had an affinity for Jazz. A few nights ago we were listening to Idle Moments by Grant Green and just as Joe Henderson's s... | |
| Would you choose 1 ou 2 subwoofers for a stereo set? Two subs or more. I’m using a pair of Rythmik subs, F12SE-XLR3 and A370XLR3 amp https://www.rythmikaudio.com/download/XLR3_sealed_quickguide.pdf I’m also using a Sublimeacoustic K231 as a 2 way XO. The miniDSP XO sounds promising, especially w... | |
| Tonearm issue OP, I had the same issue w/ my Technoarm, left channel would go out intermittently. The tonearm cable was frayed at the RCA connector, apparently this is not an uncommon problem w/ the Technoarm. I upgraded to a SME M2 9R, however, I do intend to... | |
| A Discussion About What Level Of Analog To Stop At Just my thoughts, keep your favorite turntable, tonearm, and phono. Swap out cartridges at your leisure. Both your turntables are very nice. It would be a difficult choice for me, but I think the SOTA is a keeper. Best of luck with your decis... | |
| Moving Soon - Should I Pack Up Everything Now?? OP, this is really a question for your Realtor as it is their business to ensure your house shows well and sells quickly, at or above your asking price. I'm betting the photographer was their idea. I wouldn't be surprised if that photographer has ... | |
| Speaker cable lifters. The concept of cable "lifters" has an interesting history. They were apparently first proposed by Enid Lumley, a reviewer for TAS. This link adds a little more to the story: https://positive-feedback.com/audio-discourse/bunking-cable-lifters/ It... | |
| Help me choose an Audio Research preamp/line stage (Please?) REF 3 sounds like a winner. | |
| Help me choose an Audio Research preamp/line stage (Please?) Do you need a phono? Patience is a virtue, the right preamp will show up eventually. I like this one but you’d have to stretch your budget. https://www.audiogon.com/listings/lisb5bd2-audio-research-sp-20-tube SP20’s don’t show up for sale often... | |
| Do I really Need a Digital to Digital Converter? @soix From: ifi Zen stream > Matrix Audio X-SPDIF 2 > Wyred4Sound DAC-2v2SE To: Hifi Rose 150b | |
| Vintage Gyrodec TT power supply question @dogberry No you didn't. So sorry, it's been a long day. Just trying to catch up before I crash. | |
| Vintage Gyrodec TT power supply question OP, if your Gyrodec has the Technoarm 2 tonearm, it has a habit of fraying at the RCA connectors -- it’s a continuous cable. It happened to me and the result was the left channel coming in and out. Just something to look out for. | |
| Vintage Gyrodec TT power supply question @mgattmch Good catch. I didn’t even consider the older Papst power supplies. @boywondr84 Both of my links above are the newer DC power supplies, @elliottbnewcombjr posted the link for the QC power supply which I believe is an upgraded Power su... | |
| Vintage Gyrodec TT power supply question I really like my gyrodec so I think it's worth the effort. The HR power supply is the upgrade. I found it to be a significant improvement. It was cheaper a few years ago though. https://fidelityhifi.com/products/michell-hr-power-supply If you w... | |
| Do I really Need a Digital to Digital Converter? Same. I got a DDC to connect my streamer to my DAC I2S. There was a noticeable improvement in sound quality. In the end, I got rid of it all. I couldn’t get past the idea that I shouldn’t need one more device in the chain along with its own LPS an... |
