Any thoughts on a Pioneer Rtu-11 with TAU-11 pre-amp?

I’m very bummed right now. Snooze you lose I guess. I just saw and ad for a great shape working Pioneer RT-909 with literally boxes and boxes of newer ATR tapes for sale for $900. When I responded to the ad, the seller told me there were 3 people ...

@millercarbon, thanks for the info. Sounds like you and I may be from the same era lol! Back in 5he day that’s exactly what I did with my vinyl as well many moons ago. That’s one of the things I’d like to do today. I owned (2) reel to reel decks a...

DAC Input
Yes,I called Ayre Thursday and to my surprise was thrilled to find out my DAC is still covered for another year and a half by Ayre’s original warranty. I am shipping it out Monday.

@viridian I’m sorry, I don’t know how I missed this. So far, so good! Getting use to the Vinyl. I now buy new albums because at least they may not be analogoly( is that a word?) recorded, at least their not abused over 30 or 40 years of non audiop...

@rlovendale The seller didn’t have the original outriggers/mounting basses & ft. Instead they came with a pair of sound anchors with brass footers with spikes which raised the speaker too high off the ground. There is a port on the bottom of t...

@rlovendale I absolutely love the 9’s. Once I got them dialed in, I’m very happy with them. Very detailed, 3D and open!

@whart thatbis what I thought about the pressing. gsheppardbuster who has gone well beyond the call of duty had also commented similar on possible pressing issues. That is not really a deal breaker on the LP. Just didn’t know if I had a tracking i...

@sbank 34% RH = Relative Humidty in the house. I use the spin clean system when I first receive them, let them air dry and the prior to playing use the Audioquest carbon fiber brush or Audioquest micro brush with cleaning solution.

Any thoughts! Always at the beginning silence to the first song on an album or sometimes in the silence between tracks I can faintly hear the start of the next tune. Does that mean anything or is that normal?

@dramatictenor & @sleepwalker65- I don think there is any extra source causing the hum. When I had the Exact 2 Cartridge in the arm, I also had a power conditioner which was used for a projector and DVD player. It was one shelf below the turnt...

As you all know, my first TT experience didn’t start off very good but the seller gshepardbuster  came over this morning. Having attempted several different things, we opted to try a different TT with a different cartridge on it. Sure enough it wa...

@viridian- I’ve tried about everything. I messed around with it again tonight with no luck. At this point I’m not willing to buy a different cartridge right out of the gate or buy longer cables plus another stand etc. just to accommodate this setu...

I was just able to catch up on these threads at lunch.@gshepardbuster- you’ve been phenomenal with trying to get the problem rectified and I will continue to try and correct it. I listen to it at your house and I know there were no issues heard th...
