You own a store, you sell 2 brands, which? KEF and Rega, although you need cables. OK van den Hul. | |
SUT Advice - Which Ones Are The Best? If the phono stage has gain settings up to 60 or 65DB in addition to impedence selections for cartridge flexibility, why do you need an SUT? It would seem logical that more connectors introduce more distortion.If you are talking about an SUT inste... | |
Poor Customer Service Sutherland phono stages - incredible support by Ron Sutherland (answers the phone himeself) who spent over an hour talking about a power supply upgrade for $350 and then guided me through the installation of the board. He said he is honored to hav... | |
why do so many discussions turn contentious? I have learned a lot from this site in the past few years, much of which has enabled me to improve the sound of my system for far less $$ than swapping out boxes, which may or may not improve my sound. In decades of stereo enjoyment these improvem... | |
A turntable that plays all types of music well @motorcyclphil - the question isn’t whether improvements in the turntable sound better or not- of course they do, and especially Linn is known for options, almost, but not quite like Porsche. It was whether turntables play different kinds of music... | |
A turntable that plays all types of music well Ridiculous question. I like @millercarbon's comment....but he forgot that you have to adjust the VTA when you change cartridges.....and don't forget to clean the record for an hour on your Degritter. | |
Turntable Decision Has anyone heard the new entry level SME? SME seems to be the holy grail for a lot of vinylistas. | |
Porsche @millercarbon - you have your purists and then you have your track junkies and all their exhausts, suspension and engine mods. The thing is, everyone is interested in all of the models and years (except SUVs) and appreciates the differences and e... | |
Porsche I was just at a local PCA Wash 'n Shine event on Tuesday night at a nice local winery and we had a huge turnout. Bigger than I can ever remember for this event, and it wasn't even in a good Spring month where we can get lots of daylight - couldn't... | |
Boy, Oh Boy! Towshend! I don’t have First Circle. Not sure why I never heard much about it. Sounds like you’d recommend I get that before Side eye NYC. Now let’s see how hard it is to find it on new vinyl. | |
Boy, Oh Boy! Towshend! Hey @benzman - big Pat Metheny fan. How do you rate this album's content, not just SQ? I have so many of his albums that some of them are pretty similar to prior releases. For example, I have the From This Place recent album which I bought because... | |
Porsche Interesting that KEF is the only manufacturer to advertise in Porsche's club magazine. I learned of a new dealer I had never heard of in 40 yers in the local market. I ended up buying a pair of speakers from him.I guess advertising works sometimes... | |
Record Cleaning Machines Nice clip MC, as usual you are always spot on with the hilarious exaggerations from movies or TV shows.@oldaudiiophile - I didn’t imply that the fan would hurt anything. I was just saying that if you don’t ever wet the record, you wouldn’t need a ... | |
PrimaLuna Evo 200 underwhelming You can get a great sounding integrated SS. It isn’t the technology, it is the actual make and model design and execution. You can make generalizations that tubes sound better, but it is not true in all cases, and this is even more apparent on low... | |
Bad recordings and high end audio The best dealers are the ones who can get pretty much anything. They may lean to the more expensive items since they make a % of the sale. But they can lay out all the options.As far as MC goes, that's fine for him. I prefer to buy from someone I ... |
