| Need help chosing a preamp The Nagra HD preamp is a next level piece of equipment in both sound and price. I haven't heard it compared to the Luxman, but I have heard it compared to the Nagra Classic pre. It was clearly, as you would expect, superior to the Nagra Classic p... | |
| Andy Kim at Needle Clinic saves the day! Andy does a great job with a fast turn around time. He rebuilt and repaired a number of cartridges for me. Always a great result. | |
| Integrated amp w/decent headphone out under $5k https://www.luxman.com/product/detail.php?id=16 This might be a consideration | |
| list of speakers @grislybutter Thanks for doing all of this work. Impressive and helpful. A thought on how you could expand this database and minimize effort. You may have already thought of this and decided not to pursue. Reach out to speaker makers and ask i... | |
| Clearaudio Goldfinger Statement v2 vs My Sonic Lab (MSL) Signature Platinum I have a MSL Platinum, and it sounds great. I haven't heard the Goldfinger. This would also be a good place to search and to ask your question. https://www.whatsbestforum.com/ | |

| Thinking of upgrading speakers from ProAc 3.8 I have enjoyed in my system for 23 years. To echo what others have said the newer Proac models with ribbon tweeter retain all of the qualities you like in your 3.8 models and sound better with improved imaging and transparency. I have the Proac D-40r, and have owned them since I purchase... | |
| Need a big favor picking a preamp Thanks. Well said. @davetheoilguy "Indeed, while it may come to a surprise for those who use Internet forums to make pithy comments, otherwise be rude to others, and lash out for no good reason (other than to sate whatever demon troubles them —... | |
| Need a big favor picking a preamp I haven't heard the D'Angostino Momentum HD preamp and the Exoteric Grandioso C1X. I have heard the Nagra HD, which sounds fantastic. In a comparison it was significantly superior to a Nagra Classic preamp and an Audio Research Reference. Not su... | |
| Turn table . Price/Quality for 13000£ ? I didn't watch the video, but I own a Garrard 301 in a Windsong plinth with an Ikeda tonearm. Based on that, I think the turntable in the video probably sounds very good, and IMO would be an excellent choice. The most expensive parts of my modifi... | |
| Weakest link in my system I didn't see, or see any comments about, room treatment. My recommendation would be to place some panels at the first reflection points on the walls and ceiling if you haven't done that yet. I recently treated my room. It was inexpensive and yie... | |
| Poor man's Bosch system? IMO Given the low efficiency of the Ohm Walsh speakers, I don't think the McIntosh 240 amp is a good match. The system was designed for appearance not sound quality | |
| There is none out there...... +1. That is what I did after trying a wireless and over AC solution. Works great. lalitk 4,831 posts 12-05-2023 at 07:01pm @mbmi You need a pair of pods, one pod connects directly to your existing modem or router and extends your network to ... | |
| Who is the best power amplifier that matches better with Zellaton plural evo I have a Classic and use it to drive my ProAc D-40r speakers. Get another Classic and use them as mono blocks. I have a friend who does that with Wilson Benesch Resolution speakers. He also has the Classic Preamp. Great sound. | |
| Anyone has a reference system where amplification is SS ? I have a few friends using Nagra amps. Their systems are reference quality |
