| How to go about collecting Classical Music Bluemooddriver, appreciate your input , but I’m maintaining a streaming -free lifestyle for now for the reasons expressed explained up- thread. Jonathanje, I would like to try some SACD’s if I can find some reasonably priced, possibly used, ones. ... | |
| How to go about collecting Classical Music Frogman and Inna, your correct that understanding the history of any art form should enhance your understanding and appreciation of it. There are other forms of classical music such as (east) Indian or Persian, as Inna mentioned, so that is anothe... | |
| How to go about collecting Classical Music Lowrider, the DG Beethoven box set I was referring to is the boxed set they put out in 2019 containing 123 CD’s and ostensibly all of his works, The Naxos and Warners sets do have some oddities the DG set doesn’t include from what I read last nigh... | |
| How to go about collecting Classical Music Lowrider, that really is unfortunate. After reading about the poorer quality 1980s Deutsche Grammophon material, I was wondering if any of that lesser material is in the massive DG Beethoven "complete works" boxed set they sell. I happened to stum... | |
| How to go about collecting Classical Music Lowrider, thank you for the info on 1980’s DG CD’s. I’ll look for the later remastered copies only from then. Good to here Redbooks from other sources are good. That’ll make shopping on the used market lots easier. Thanks for the Wikipedia link to... | |
| How to go about collecting Classical Music Thank you all for your replies. I enjoy the physical media and will be likely sticking with CD's for the forseeable future. I've, for me, a fairly expensive stereo system and don't wish to invest in any more expensive equipment, cables, or monthly... | |
| Living in Japan. Any opinions on amplifiers? If you were to look for vintage Luxman I remember reading somewhere at some point they did outsource some manufacturing to China, but then discontinued that practice. You are fortunate to have access to their and Accuphase's new products at Japane... | |

| New Hobby Ultrasonic Record Cleaning Unfortunately, here’s a buyers beware on the Happybuy Ultrasonic Cleaner, There were a number of complaints on Amazon about missing parts and the difficulty of obtaining any of those parts from the seller. In my case the basket that goes with the ... | |
| Does it annoy you when companies don't show the internals of electronics ? Look at the care Luxman takes with the wiring of their integrated amps and you can guess the same level of care was applied to the rest of the product. If the wiring of a competitors integrated amp looks like it's spaghetti that's likely a tell.ab... | |
| New Hobby Ultrasonic Record Cleaning Ditto garyalex. Fedex just dropped mine off. I need to go inventory the parts now as a few of the Amazon reviewers complained about missing parts. It really looks nice and well made at first glance. Again thanks Skypunk for bringing this ultrasoni... | |
| New Hobby Ultrasonic Record Cleaning Antinn, thanks for the follow-up on the pint of the Tergitol surfacant for $21.75 from Talas. That's a much more reasonable cost.Mike | |
| New Hobby Ultrasonic Record Cleaning Antinn, Amazon carries the Tergitol 15-S-9 surfactant, but it’s $160.00 for 500 ml. It sounds like a better product from what you said, but that’s a bit pricey, for me anyway. I guess I’ll go for the Triton X100 instead at $20.00 for the same amou... | |
| New Hobby Ultrasonic Record Cleaning Willy-T, are you using Versa-Clean along with a surfacant or alone. I’m getting confused as to whether one or both type products are needed or advisable to be used. Anyone?Mike | |
| New Hobby Ultrasonic Record Cleaning Slaw, were you meaning in your post at the beginning of this thread, that your Chinese made ultrasonic record cleaner lasted two years and went kaput or the tank sprang a leak, or that it’s lasted two years and is still going strong? Having just o... |
