Bought powerful/expensive Amp+Speakers but plan to use an old preamp , am I crazy? I’d go so far as to say, hell, your gonna love it. You already "love" the phono stage and the unit it self is pretty decent. With the upgrades that you will be using, your gonna be happy. Maybe even VERY happy. I hope so. And this leads into the u... | |
Totally overwhelmed (speakers under $5k) I'd buy a decent/good Streamer for +/-1000 and the rest of your budget on speakers ($4000 speakers will differently be an upgrade). You "will" notice the difference. Your system is pretty decent as is. Using a MacBook to stream with is holding wha... | |
Bigger and Better: Integrated Amplifiers @ghasley BRILLIANT.... 🤣 (Exactly what I was thinking, just with less,,,,, PIZZAZ) | |
Share albums where EVERY SINGLE song is good OMG, how could I forget this one. And a double album at that. Saw his goodbye tour in 2019, played the whole album and EVERY song was a awesome. Elton John - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road | |

Guess How Big My Speakers Are Are they 1cubic foot bookshelves? Say, Squires hrs-1..... Or something like that? 😁 | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? @reubent Yes, I've switched to MC on my phono input. My pre-amp (parasound new classic 200, basically new) has MC phono input. Maybe a separate phono pre is in order? Don't have a ton of money left over after the cartridge purchase though. | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? @big_greg Loving that album. Really getting into Eno these days. Passed on his "ambient 4 - on land" album this weekend at a used record shop simply cuz I didn’t know it. Went home, streamed. WOW, gotta call that shop up and try put it on hold ... | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? @reubent The new Rega Ania MC cartridge is nice. My fist MC. Softer sounding (not as loud at same volume setting as my MM) but more focused I'd say. Not a huge difference to my ADC QLM 32 mk2 MM cartridge though (maybe that my 57 year old ears a... | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? I see your Pete Townshend and raise you.... Brian Eno - Another Green World (on my Sony PS-X50 with brand new to night Rega Ania MC cartridge... Woot Woot) | |
Cartridge recommedations I've just ordered the Rega Ania and expecting it tomorrow. It will be used on a Sony PS-x50 turntable and is my first MC cartridge so,,, fingers crossed I can set it up properly. I'll report back once I have an impression. | |
In the beginning Music has evolved from an early way of comunicting. Launaguge was primative. Banging rhymically and making noise emoted feeling and sometimes a memory. And, as it evolved, people started to like how it made them feel. We humans like things th... | |
Sony PS-X50 - MC cartridge advice please (and general MC cartridge advice) Thank you so much @jasonbourne52 for your teaching's and time taken. 👍 I'll also look into the Sony XL series @nandric . Another question if I might. My readings is that MC styli will wear out faster than an MC styli. In your experience's, wou... | |
Sony PS-X50 - MC cartridge advice please (and general MC cartridge advice) Thanks @jasonbourne52 . Will my Sony PS-X50 suitably accept the mentioned MC cartridge. My reading is some MC cartridges are low, medium, or high output and should be carefully matched to the turntable. So I’m trying to do that with zero understa... |
