| How to fix my preamp dilemma Sturdy, on a slightly different track here, what NAD i/a did you have, and what did you do with it? | |
| What do you recommend to replace my Hafler IRIS preamp? I had a look at the Saga, via the guys at AudioScienceReview. The verdict was "clean", but don't expect gain and don't expect the tube to add anything to the sound. There's also no phono section. Gotta have phono. I'd still like to hear the Saga b... | |
| What do you recommend to replace my Hafler IRIS preamp? As I mentioned in my first post, I know Schiit makes good... Schiit, but I'd prefer to stay in my chosen era. I like learning the circuits from back then, I enjoy doing upgrades or at least recaps. If I can't find anything from back in the day, I'... | |
| What do you recommend to replace my Hafler IRIS preamp? Balanced in/out isn't important to me. The home environment isn't noisy enough to warrant it. After reading your post I searched for and found several LS15 preamps, but they all seem to have balanced I/O, and no remotes. Also, pricey. At $1k to $1... | |
| Anyone here have experience with the Denon DP-35F? There were a substantial amount of bad reviews, and they seemed centered around the mastering code rather than the actual quality. Since you have them, are you able to tell if they're AAD or ADD? Not that it really matters, but I'm just interested... | |
| Anyone here have experience with the Denon DP-35F? Well, this doesn't bode well:This series includes a substantial number of fraudulently described recordings, based exclusively on the catalog sold by the fraudster Alfred Scholz. Although fraudulently described as "digitally recorded" DDD, virtual... | |
| Anyone here have experience with the Denon DP-35F? I'm not familiar with the Vienna Master Series. Are those the go-to CDs for a quality performance with excellent recording? I've recently started exploring classical again (or "classical", since I've been listening to later composers like Satie, O... | |
| Anyone here have experience with the Denon DP-35F? Chakster: Pickering and Stanton are still in business, but audiophiles are not their target market anymore, since Walter O. Stanton sold the company in the late 90s. However, best cartridges from the 80’s - early 90s still can be found NOS (I boug... | |
| Anyone here have experience with the Denon DP-35F? Interesting that you mentioned that, DeKay. The friend who set up my 37F just bought an A-T VM95SH, which he's mounted on an SME-armed Thorens. He's very satisfied with it. The 95SH stylus is a nude Shibata. How does that compare to the nude Micro... | |
| Anyone here have experience with the Denon DP-35F? I like Denon DP-80 turntable and Denon DA-401 tonearm. I also have Denon original plinth for my DP-80. If you want Denon cartridges you can look for DL-103D or S. Or you can look for MM cartridges like DL-107 if you want that denon sound. Pickerin... | |
| Anyone here have experience with the Denon DP-35F? I know thats what the factory manual says, but like I said, I’m pretty sure mine had the DL160. I know this because when I bought the table I was told not to get any table with an MM cartridge, always buy MC. I heard that lecture any time I was sh... | |
| Anyone here have experience with the Denon DP-35F? I have one of the DP-37F in rosewood as well, I traded a Thorens for it. The plinth, the arm, and the dustcover are completely flawless. I just had it set up by a friend a couple weeks ago. We played Dark Side of the Moon through my SDA SRS with a... | |
| For auld lang syne, ..high-end companies you really liked that are gone.... Here's my candidates, some are closed, some are brand-engineered into oblivion: Proton (screwed by Circuit City, run into the ground by their parent company, and gave up on having any presence in the USA)Sumo (long gone - James Bongiorno was an au... |
