| Going old school Thanks all. I really want something to listen to rather than record. I'll look into the options suggested. | |
| Effective ways to upgrade a Music Hall MMF 2.2 Schubert, I want to clarify something I said earlier. My listening does include some rock, though it's not hard or heavy. More like the James Taylor, Fleetwood Mac, Beatles, Paul Simon, Sting kind, with some Floyd, Dire Straits, Jethro Tull thrown... | |
| Effective ways to upgrade a Music Hall MMF 2.2 Herbie's mat arrived today. The quality of this mat is much higher than the stock felt mat. It is made from a rubber-like material though not really - more like a synthetic derivative. It is white but has a black, thin plastic-like sheet stuck on ... | |

| Looking for Woody Allen movie old school music Goodness, it is hard to find the original albums. Some are 78s and I only have a vinyl player that will play 33.5 and 45. I am enjoying trying to find them though. | |
| Looking for Woody Allen movie old school music Yes, Bix Biederbecke is definitely one of the ones I was looking for, along with some old school vocals, which I should be able to find from the credits! | |
| Looking for Woody Allen movie old school music Casey, thanks! This is part of an effort to make some recent purchases more appealing :)Thanks Jazzcourier, for the detailed explanation. I am aware of some of the artists he uses (Cole Porter, Billie Holiday) but some of the songs/artists I heard... | |
| Effective ways to upgrade a Music Hall MMF 2.2 Okay Schubert - I will try the speedbox as well. I have already ordered Herbie's mat and mp-150. Thanks all. I will let you know what the result is. | |
| Effective ways to upgrade a Music Hall MMF 2.2 To recap - I should get the mat and the cartridge but not the platter and definitely not the tonearm. Please correct me if wrong. One more question - folks online have spoken of a Speedbox adding to the quality of sound for a MMF 2,2. Apparently, ... | |
| Effective ways to upgrade a Music Hall MMF 2.2 Schubert, Rock is not my fare - just classical or jazz. Let me know if the MP150 is better suited for that. | |
| Effective ways to upgrade a Music Hall MMF 2.2 LOL - my apologies for the snafu. I was not paying attention to the names of posters. | |
| Effective ways to upgrade a Music Hall MMF 2.2 Schubert, Sorry - what is a Viridian? I am not finding it in my web searches. That is the second recommendation for a Nagaoka MP 150 which intrigues me. I was considering a Ortofon 2M Blue or a Denon DL-110 based upon advice from a dealer and this... | |
| Effective ways to upgrade a Music Hall MMF 2.2 Thank you for your advice. It all makes sense. I was also thinking that buying a new cartridge that I can later transfer to a new turntable makes a lot of sense. Also, the mat and the acrylic platter sound like reasonable upgrades that will provid... | |
| Do I need a subwoofer? Which brand and model? One interesting test I tried was to shut the main speakers off. This allowed me to independently test the effect of the subwoofers and adjust settings until I got what I liked the most. This was an useful test for me, | |
| Do I need a subwoofer? Which brand and model? After talking to SVS support, I realized that the crossover was too high, and that phase apparently is not something I need to worry about. I learnt about localization. I still have my crossover high and I don't think it is that localized - I supp... |
