| Transparent Phono Cable I am having a really BAD two weeks!Last night my home was hit by lightning.My audio room is on a seperate circuit,and seems to have escaped any damage.Don't anyone EVER disrespect stuff like my "now beloved" PS Audio Ultimate Outlets/UPC-200! I sh... | |
| Transparent Phono Cable Dan,thanks for the thoughts.Sadly(big time),my dad passed away last week.He was the penultimate hobbyist,and donated much to the Smithsonian.A great guy!Should you ever want to contact me,or any one of the 'philes here,my e-mail is Sirspeedy7068@e... | |
| Transparent Phono Cable I have A/B'd the Purist Venustas arm cable against the Graham IC-70.Anyone telling you which one to buy is NOT doing you any favors,though the sentiments are well intended! It is COMPLETELY up to the specific voicing of your own components,and you... | |
| 12" Tonearm What Have You Heard & Recommend? WELL!!----There seems to be another real "contender" in the tonearm game!I have to assume that the Air Tangent is not available any longer(new).I'm referring specifically to air bearing/linear tracking designs.To my ears(though I love a good numbe... | |
| 12" Tonearm What Have You Heard & Recommend? Johnannantis,well you don't have to "try imagining" a unipivot without damping of the bearing.It exists,and I did put out a thread(for my friend)addressing the possibility of correcting the "tick tock" action.No responses!! I cannot believe this i... | |
| Schroeder versus Tri-Planar Chris,just some unqualified input.Since my system has been down,for a few months,I have been spending a good bit of time getting as much info,on the designs interesting me,from the web.Obviously the table/arm/cart interface is very appealing to me... | |
| Jadis Eurythmie - Anyone ever listen to them? Personally,I think they are truly wonderful,and unique looking.I don't think the guy who owns a ROLLS ROYCE SILVER SHADOW,circa 1989 or abouts,or a 1998 Leica Rangefinder is too worried about it's classic looks,Same here,IMO! | |
| 12" Tonearm What Have You Heard & Recommend? Based on my friend's NEW VPI-12.6,replacing a superb linear tracker,I must admit to being quite disappointed.The sound is fairly good in the bass,but the sense of ease is gone!Extended,thin highs,giving a faulty(IMO,only)sense of detail.Some can(d... | |
| SME 20/2 SME V or Triplanar VII? Thanks Larry!Very nice sentiments,but having had the fortune of meeting you I am not surprised as to the consideration and concern. Best! | |
| Have you seen the VR9SE Review? Mike,my intent was not to shift you to a defensive position.I'm sorry if it seemed that way! Best! | |
| Have you seen the VR9SE Review? Though I have no doubts as to the fine performance of the VR9SE(I was amazed as to how good they sound in a small room),the comparison as to clarity,compared to the wonderful Kharma EXQ REF cannot be made to the degree stated here.Sorry!!Even by t... | |
| Sonus Faber Extrema vs. Guarneri Thf,I never stated I thought they were the "best".I implied that I thought they were a superb speaker.As I'm sure you know,there is no best of anything,but a heck of alot of really good stuff.That's the fun of it all! Best! | |
| Sonus Faber Extrema vs. Guarneri Trust me,I was in absolute amazement at the "complete" level of performance from the Extremas(I don't own a Sonus product,but can easily be honest,here).It did both subtle detail,gorgeous timbres and really amazing dynamics aplenty!It is DEFINITEL... | |
| Sonus Faber Extrema vs. Guarneri I have heard both,though not in comparison.Both fine products,BUT,the Extrema blew me away,with it's dynamic/harmonic presentation!!They are my favorite Sonus product.A classic,in every way!BTW--they do benefit from an add on super tweeter,as the ... | |
| 12" Tonearm What Have You Heard & Recommend? Great points,from Raul!!He seems to get better,with age Best! |
