Received this album yesterday. I have to say that it is a surprise sonically. I was under the expectation that the sound would be fragrancely digital. It turns out to sound very good. The tone is refreshingly modern. The hall ambient is there to hear from the venue. Aactually nothing to complain...
I find classical music excites me more than any other musical genre. (Thank you Bonzo for introducing me to it.) I would rate the Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto by Campoli/Argenta LSO my numero uno in excitement. I love looking into new find on classical pieces. And would really appreciate if you...
Recently I bought a Budd Johnson's The Definitive Black & Blue Sessions, Pure Pleasure Records. I enjoy the vinyl greatly. I am wondering how other find records from this label. And I would very much appreciate if you guys could recommend interesting albums from their catalog pictured below...
I have owned quite a few cars, Aston Martin, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Porsche, McLaren, Benz, BMW, Mini, Dodge, Toyota, Honda, Mazda. I actually enjoy Mini Coupe most driving in Bangkok. It is most fun, most practical, most exciting (because I can drive as crazy as I want without worrying about...
The name and court drama theme actually turned me off more than a few times before I decided to give it a try. I am now on Season 8 .. have been watching it whenever take a break from parenting job. I like the wit the humors and chemistry between characters and the vintage cars Harvey Spectre rides.
If you are not crazy stupid don't bother looking at this thread. This power cord will make you Ooh Ahh!, HeeHaa!, Yahoo! Especially when using with your digital equipments. I have three for sales. (Actually I have quite a few more but let's see if I could even sell one :D) They are 15amp 1.5...
$15,000 as good as new. Cheaper than the big grounding cable itself. No waiting time. No original crate. It was just a shitty wooden crate. So I threw it out.
For $20,000 I will give you a Troy SE too.
I had many episodes of ZYX I thought it was not destined to be mine. I bought this cart from ddk. First time he sent it to me. It arrived, I opened the box but there was not any cart in it. I called David he told me not to loose sleep over it. S@#t happens. He would take care of it. (Really a...
I am fortunate to have many carts to listen to. I will put a sound clip of each cart on this thread. The system is constant using Cessaro Gamma II, Ayon amplification and pre, Kuro cablings, Ching Cheng power cords ;), EMT JPA66 Mk III phono and AS2000 tt. The tonearm used is mostly SME 3012R...
Yesterday, my tonearm guy set 2 carts up for me. The Master Signature is on the Axiom/EMT 927. And the ZYX Universe Premium on SAT ( I took the Etna Mono off) but that didn’t work. The ZYX was drifting like Fast n Furious with SAT. The light weight ZYX just couldn’t be played on SAT. The problem...
I have a few of these magic boxes. This one is not in use. Selling for $7,500.
It does everything it suppose to do except no rabbit coming out from the box.

Ayon vs EMT vs CH Phono
I had been fortunate to have chances to try quite a few phonos. My purpose in trying was not to get the definitive best sound from a Phono. I like variety and have many tastes depending on my mood. I was looking to possess three phonos because I will have up to 9 arms...
Please, give me your experience on what you hear when tube life is about to end. What are the signs? Are they different from equipment to equipment, ie., Phono, amps, pre amps.
Thank you very much.

After a long wait. “The Rack” is worth the wait. A custom turn table stand tailor made for the American Sound by Stacore. Never thought a 300+ kgs rack could be so elegant. Many ideas on rack for the most talk about tt in this forum were happening. I stick to my approach. And here it is my baby :).
Opus1 vs. MSL Platinum
- Variables are Opus1 on Kronos and MSL on AF1. Other things are the same except Opus1 is fully burned in. MSL has 22-24 hrs on it.
- They are like twins. If you don’t have in the same system, you unlikely hear the differences. Even I have them in the same system...
I have Ayon's own 5U4G in both mono blocs and preamp.
My friend recommended KR saying KR is best and better than EML on noise floor, bass, dynamic, clarity and density.
Out of curiosity I boght a pair. This morning I replaced Ayon 5U4G on my Titans with KR. Right out of the box, they sounded...
Just watched this movie on cable. A wonderful feelgood romantic comedy. Full of witful humorous scripts. Two hours of positive energy. Good soundtrack too.

I have many fone' LPs. Their LPs are far behind their tapes in my opinion. Thats how it should be.
Now accumulating their tapes and may be stop buying their LPs.
This "grand gala" has a wall breaking sound. Your room boundaries are just gone.
This "Moonglow" will transport you to...
This is my first. My business is in crop protection. Audio is only my hobby.
Currently I own a Kronos Pro with Black Beauty arm and Airtight Opus1 cart. A few weeks ago I received a new power supply SCPS-1. Before I hook it up to the Pro, I had watched the product review by Peter B. in...
