I use my finely tuned and aligned 682ZX on an almost daily basis. I make compilations from LPs and CDs and for background music coming from another room this is perfect.
DiMarzio cables
Just wanted to share my experience of using DiMarzio M-Path RCA interconnects, 1.0M pair.
In another thread when OP asked about what to use for amplification of "heavy music", I suggested he ask Yngwie Malmsteen and use whatever he does. So a few weeks ago I thought why not follow my own advice and not try the cables he uses with his guitars. And that's DiMarzio. You know what, I was really impressed by them. In my very good mid-fi system with the Spacedeck table being the only component above mid-fi, they were almost as good as Purist Audio Maximus for less than 20% the price. Purist had a little richer midrange with a little deeper soundstage but the rest was at least equal. I would say that DiMarzio was a bit more articulate with somewhat better highs. Excellent cable. And for $150 pair new? Great value. I still prefer Purist overall but by very little and not with any recording.
Anyone else has impressions?
