| Shinjitsu Audio Horns I just got these horns set up with my Tannoy Turnberry speakers. This has been a lot of fun and I’m truly blown away with the performance. These do give that “live” sound that horns are known for. I started out using the “Bold” capacitor for more ... | |
| The Music Room is Slipping I’ve always had a good experience with TMR. I’ve consigned items with them, traded and sold outright to them. All good experiences. I will admit that I try to sell audio gear on my own through AG or USAM if the sale is under $3K. It just doesn’t m... | |
| Comments please on: NAD M23 vs c298 vs. other newer Class D @hilde45 I owned the NAD M23 V1 for a couple years. I purchased it when it first came out. I really liked this amplifier. It was very well built and beautiful to look at. The sound was very neutral and not harsh at all in my system. The M23 amp h... | |
| Phono stages - Rega Aura vs Luxman EQ 500 I recently upgraded and using the EAR 88PB tube Phono with the EAR MC4 SUT and I’ve never heard a better phono in my system. I’ve had some very expensive phono preamps in the past and this one is special. It’s dead silent, organic and exactly what... | |
| Used Bookshelf up to $3k I own Dali Epicon 2 bookshelf speakers in a 2nd smaller system and they are phenomenal in my opinion. Very detailed, good midrange and really nice soundstage. I just saw a pair listed at TMR for an awesome price. https://tmraudio.com/fresh-arri... | |
| Nagra VPS issue I know this is an old thread, but what jumper did you switch from Position A to B? I am having the same issue on an additional MM card in the Nagra VPS. When using Input A (MC card) no issue and LED solid blue. When switching to the MM card (Input... | |
| Should I upgrade from REL/510 subwoofer to REL/812 subwoofer? I agree with @gkelly and others. I have a stereo pair of REL S/510’s in a room with similar size and can’t imagine needing more. There was a big difference going from one sub to the pair of S/510’s. The stereo pair really pressurizes the room muc... | |
| Will a record weight harm the motor in a direct drive turntable? I would recommend the “Serene Stabiliser” from Stack Audio. It will provide what you’re looking for and minimal weight. Much better than a typical clamp. | |
| Seller Silence Isn’t that up to you to call the manufacturer and have them explain the warranty? If you purchase gear that’s more than 1yr old, I would assume there is no warranty. If you’re not the original purchaser with an original receipt, I would assume the... | |
| Looking for new speaker cables I’ve been through several speaker cable brands and settled on Cerious Technologies “Graphene Lumniscate.” This is their top speaker cable. They are very transparent, vocals are very clear and bass is tight. They don’t add any sonic signature in th... | |
| What are the most balanced relatively neutral cartridges at each price level ? Around $3K (Level 2) ZYX Ultimate Exceed Airy I’ve had this cartridge for 1yr now and it’s very neutral with a little air on top. I guess that’s why it’s called Ultimate Airy. It does live up to its name. It’s been my favorite cartridge for a ... | |
| Recommendation for phono stage I have had several phono stages over the years and I’ve been very happy with the Modwright PH9.0XT. I purchased the unit new as a 9.0X and later upgraded the power supply to Tube Rectified. Easy “on the fly” adjustability on front faceplate. It’s ... | |
| Pass INT-25, split decision and maybe option? You could try adding the “Analog Bridge” by Modwright between your source and integrated amp. It will add that tube warmth and midrange back. I love mine and use it between my amp and preamp. I feel the 6SN7 tubes will give you what you want, but ... | |
| HAVE CABLES EVER TAKEN YOUR SYSTEM FROM SOUNDING JUST OK TO SOUNDING GREAT? Experiences ? I noticed a very nice improvement when I went to using Cerious Technologies Graphene Lumniscate speaker cables. The music details were clear and had a bigger soundstage. I also noticed a nice improvement in sound when I went with a full lume of Ve... | |
| what is more popular silver or black face plates I prefer silver, but have both silver and black because some of my components were only offered in black. To me, black looks outdated and silver looks more modern. I’m actually surprised by all the comments on this post. |
