Turntable is VPI Scout Jr connected to a Rega Aria MK3 phono preamp, then Naim integrate... | |
| Anyone Successfully Go from Floor Standers to Bookshelf Monitors w/ Subs? Switched from floor standers to Focal Sopra No1. Very happy. But these are anything but "bookshelf" speakers - the speakers and the Focal stands together weight around 100 lbs. I do have a sub, but most of the time I feel I could easily go without... | |

| Cartridge for VPI TT with JMW 9 tonearm tablejockey, thank you for the vote on OC9 III, would love to have that one, but outside my price range. Hopefully the OC9XEN is similar. Johnto, thanks for recommendations on Hana EH. I have added that to my list as well as the Goldring 2500 is o... | |
| Cartridge for VPI TT with JMW 9 tonearm Thanks everyone for the great comments and info you provided. These lead me to potentially re-prioritize my purchase plans - it seems I should look at upgrading my Phono preamp first before the cartridge. I will look into that to see what options ... | |
| Cartridge for VPI TT with JMW 9 tonearm millercarbon, thank you for the great suggestions, appreciate it. I am looking to upgrade the phono stage as well, but definitely need a cartridge since the one that came on the table needs to be replaced. If you have recommendations for phono sta... | |
| Cartridge for VPI TT with JMW 9 tonearm Motorway, thanks for the response. While I would love to have any of those cartridges, they are all unfortunately outside my budget.Tooblue, thanks for the recommendation, I will need to read about that. | |
| Cartridge for VPI TT with JMW 9 tonearm Thank you both for the quick responses. Sounds like you both liked the AT-OC9XEN. Hopefully my Phono preamp will be good enough for the low MC power coming from that cartridge. If there are other cartridges in similar price range that I missed, pl... | |
| Is there any streamer/integrated competitor to NAD C-388 w/BluOS2i MDC? I am also looking for an alternative to NAD since it seems none of their integrated amps support DSD natively and that's important to me. Hegel H390 is great, but it is a much higher price option, and I also don't need as much amplifier power as t... | |
| Connecting one pair of speakers to two amps? Is it possible? There are 2 x 2 (2 speakers to 2 amps) switches that you can find on-line if you search for them (Amazon, eBay, etc.). You can ignore the connectors for one set of speakers and use the switch as a 2 x 1 (2 stereo amps to 1 set of stereo speakers).... | |

| Very small room! Help me with monitor speakers oddiofyl, thank you for the comment regarding Revel M106. It is definitely on my short list. Was it easy to drive and listen to at lower volumes? stereohans, Dynaudio speakers, specifically the Evoke series were on my list initially, but some of t... | |
| Very small room! Help me with monitor speakers Schwantner, Thanks. With every store closed, it will be very difficult to try the speakers, although some on-line retailers do allow for 30 day return. I'm hoping I don't have to return though. | |
