| Harbeth again…or other speakers for acoustic music? Tanmoy or Audio Note speakers with a good 300b SET will be very very good for your listening | |
| RIP oregonpapa https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/pani-new-art-9-up-and-running This is how my association with Oregonpapa started. His way of expression is very different. He had a big heart. Will miss him! | |
| Turntable upgrade recommendations: SME vs AMG vs Technics vs other @drbond Among the 3 top TT you have selected, SME is the best and that too by a considerable margin. The most neutral, the quietest and the most dynamic among the three. | |
| What do audiophiles do in their cars? There is only so much appetite for any craving. When I listen to music in car I don't feel like listening at home anymore. Hence car stereo is always off, unless I am on a long drive or kids want it. | |
| Recommendation for a highly resolving amp Symphonic Line Kraft, if at all you change the amp for power and resolution | |
| How much does power amplifier really matter comparing to other hi-fi components? Source and speakers first. Whatever remains should go into powering them. | |
| How can a system be judged with highly processed, non acoustic music? Is Metallica considered highly processed by the jury here? | |
| Solid state amp to go with tube preamp; used ok; budget: $3k max Quad 909 or Quad Elite QSP. If you don't mind small monoblocks then Quad Elite QMP. Better than all the pass-es, accuphase and McIntosh | |
| ATC SCM50ASL Pro vs ATC SCM 50ASLT There is a difference between the pro model and the domestic model. While both of them are 50L cabinets, typically ATC suggests the monitor model if the room dimensions are relatively small. The floorstand version sounds a bit larger/bloomier henc... | |
| What comes after Harbeth 30.1s? Audio Note speakers needs to be placed close to rear wall is a myth. That is Audio Note's way of projecting it. In fact it sounds wrong in the bass region when they place it in those corners. Just place it like a normal speaker and enjoy the speed... | |
| ATC SCM150 (or JBL Synthesis) (or JBL vintage) (or new Klipsch Jubilee) The preamp should be a neutral and natural one. CJ GAT, ARC Ref 6, Wavac PR-Z1 | |
| ATC SCM150 (or JBL Synthesis) (or JBL vintage) (or new Klipsch Jubilee) @millhomes, I love big speakers for the same reason as you suggested. Big speakers present dynamics big and effortless. And I have listened to a lot of ATC, Tannoys & Altecs. Here is one simple thing you need to know.ATC SCM150 is a big speake... | |
| What comes after Harbeth 30.1s? Tannoy Sterling GR. Not in your face, but proper grown up sound. Opens up a new era of dynamics and clarity compared to Harbeth 30.1.Audio Note AN/J. Very open sound and more neutral than Harbeth. | |
| cassettes CAN sound better than vinyl. Some time back I had a brand new Nakamichi DR-10 at my place. It was the first Nakamichi I had ever used. I recorded a CD to a Philips Chrome cassette. The cd player was an, Audio aero prestige capitol. To my surprise the cassette identical to the... | |
| Thoughts on moving from a 1200G to Sota Saphire or above @lewm I didnt mean same as in equals. I just meant all 3 technics sounded like cut from a similar cloth. The Mk2 sounded bigger and more dynamic than 1200G. The Mk3 sounded like a fully grown up TT coming from the same stable. Big, bold, stable so... |
