1: Vinyl Asylum, RE: Cheapest upgrade ever? (success with MuMetal) (0.00)
Posted by Miles B on 2011-08-12, 13:13:44 (67.188.111.6)
The problem with this is that if I ever plan on listening to CDs, Naim CD players benefit for long warm-up periods. It's generally recommended to leave them on all the time. .......

Posted by Miles B on 2011-08-10, 17:27:49 (67.188.111.6)
If the skipping is taking the form of repeating a section over and over, that's too much anti-skate. If it's skipping through the last track, that's too little anti-skate. A method I've used to set an .......

No, I haven't but it didn't seem necessary. However, I'll give it a shot and see if that offers further improvement. .......

Several months ago, I noticed some hum in my system, but only on my phono input. The hum seemed to be at a constant level all the time, regardless of if my turntable motor was turned on or not. I chec .......

…and for double the price, I'd hope the Maestro would be in a completely different class than the Aurum Beta! Have you compared it to a Shelter 501? .......

I'm using the VPI HR-X Center Record Weight - it looks like it goes for $150 new. Mine was given to me when the original owner got a real Sota reflex clamp for his Star Sapphire. .......

I've had a SL-1200 MK II in my system. I've never owned a Rega, but friends own them and I've listened to plenty of them. The reason the 1200s are popular with DJs is because they have high-torque mot .......

It's incredibly system-dependent. I tried a Dynavector 20X in the same system (but with my old JMLab speakers), and to me it fixed everything that was glaringly wrong with my Benz cartridge, but defin .......

My ringmat has been sitting unused ever since someone gave me a nice heavy clamp. I have a Sota turntable with a decently high-mass platter, and I find that records definitely sound better clamped tha .......

I agree about the tail-up recommendation. Being used to flat-bottomed cartridges, at first I thought I couldn't get the VTA low enough on it. But then one day I listened to a familiar live recording w .......

Posted by Miles B on 2011-08-04, 01:09:02 (67.188.111.6)
Last year, I bought a Clearaudio Aurum Beta, as they were giving a phenomenal trade-in deal on my previous cartridge, a Benz MC20E2. I noticed an improvement, mainly that it was smoother and less sibi .......

The best tubed pre that I've had the pleasure of listening to in that price range has got to be the Audible Illusions Modulous 3A. But under a certain condition - the Mod 3A has some internal DIP swit .......

Thanks. I'll keep that in mind while auditioning amps. It looks like there may be more hope with the used market. .......

I saw that, along with the Cyrus 6, which you still can't get here. Unfortunately, I've never seen a Unico in person. .......
