| Re-terminate Recommendation in SoCal Unfortunately they said they don't. | |
| Maybe Leaving SET for Solid State because I want bass Part of this is the fault of a vintage preamp I put in the system for a few weeks. The tone controls showed just how much bass the speakers were capable of, even if the rest of the sound was less than ideal. Why no one makes a modern high end prea... | |
| Maybe Leaving SET for Solid State because I want bass Thanks everyone. These are all good point. I'm going to try the Atma-Sphere D amps. They are small enough to rotate in when I'm in the mood. In any case it will be a good experiment. | |
| Maybe Leaving SET for Solid State because I want bass Thanks. That may be where I start. | |
| Any former Lamm Preamp Users? What did you buy next? I know! I have a pair of the DRs in my Ayon amplifier. Took a year to find (at a reasonable, but still high, price.) Thanks for the suggestion! | |
| Any former Lamm Preamp Users? What did you buy next? @jasonbourne71 Sorry for my language.... he's not just a repair guy. He's an accomplished engineer who repairs high end gear. Also, he's not the only one who I have spoken to about this piece. 2 well know techs have said repairing Lamm is a crap s... | |
| Anyone know a custom woodworker who can make a case for a vintage receiver? Found a great guy on Etsy. Custom and way less than some of the original ones I found on ebay. Thanks everyone! | |
| Anyone notice different amounts of surface noise with different arms? @mijostyn Just gibberish. You have ears. I have ears. They are just different ears. For me, you can measure to your head spins but I listen to the best digital and I love it for about 20 minutes but then my ears hurt and I can't go on and then I l... | |
| Anyone notice different amounts of surface noise with different arms? @mijostyn Blinding the panel isn’t what music listening determination is about. It’s what you enjoy listening over a long period of time. I’ve had state of the art digital in my personal listening system and boy it sounds awesome. And then after a... | |
| Anyone notice different amounts of surface noise with different arms? @mijostyn As someone who listens for a living in my work which is tangential to the music industry, your blanket statement about that level digital being superior is completely fine for your ears. I’ve done the comparison in a room of people in a ... | |
| Anyone notice different amounts of surface noise with different arms? Thanks @larryi. I've been playing with setup a bit today and it's definitely making a difference. I have been using a fixed SPU headshell with an Ortofon SL-15, which technically should be dead on with the Bokrand (the pivot to spindle is confirme... | |
| Hissing at idle through one amp but not another Thank you @mlsstl! I just realized there is a gain switch on the back of the Ayon and a attenuator switch on the Lamm. By reducing the gain on the Ayon and going to -15 on the Lamm, the hiss is almost gone. I've learned over the years that with t... | |
| Hissing at idle through one amp but not another These are good suggestions but this problem is different. It seems like the hiss is coming from the preamp because I don't hear it when the preamp is muted or off. But if I use a different amp, I don't hear hiss at all. I've swapped tubes. That's ... | |
