    Ron’s New System

    maybe if they want some lights for the dancing they can switch the tubes on and off, on and off…

    Ron’s New System

    No it’s not, if you upload your Mahler 3 video or it’s easily heard. Lloyd politely had similar comments. You auditioned it with Gryphon amps before buying, never got it going at home, even tried digital EQ. Looks like now you had not properly connected the cables as well based on Angus’...

    Ron’s New System

    maybe because you had never tried suitable amps for your speakers?

    Ask your spouse which video sounds more real or natural

    There is nothing good about this album. The original was a CD release, you might be referring to the Fone reissue, which is available at 200ish.

    Welcome Escultor, great opening post. May I ask what amps, speakers, and analog you are using?

    Horns....Avantgarde vs. Cessaro

    Beta and Chopin are so different. And yes I have heard the Liszt, Opus, Gamma II, and Zeta in private systems, outside Munich. The Beta is more similar in design to the Gamma II. The Beta II that played at Munich had bigger bass horns.

    Horns....Avantgarde vs. Cessaro

    I agree, the Chopin is quite poor.

    American Sound, "The Absolute Nothing"

    i don’t know about that, what was mentioned was that he hasn’t played it for a year (as per his YT post which had been posted on the other thread), and that was due to some issues with valves, sockets of amps and the Neumann

    American Sound, "The Absolute Nothing"

    Hi, I haven't said 3012r was the right choice. 3012r is good value for money. I said compared with SAT and axiom it was preferred. I also gave the Devore XVX analogy to relate to 3012r SAT. I have separately written that I also compared Schroeder LT to the 33k SAT model (that was the first SAT)...

    then the question becomes, are you buying a TT, or are you buying a system? If you have heard the whole system, and prefer it to other whole systems you have heard, and are buying the system, that makes sense.

    American Sound, "The Absolute Nothing"

    The SAT didn’t sound right on the AS at tang’s. It sounded right on the Techdas. Overall, I too did not find anything particularly better with the SAT Opus that was more musical. And staying with the SME seemed the logical choice. I don’t like the axiom either. but that is like comparing a...

    most of TT purchases happen with what you hear and what you get. So if you get Techdas with the arm board they have got graham, you will find very few experimenting with tonearm material and tonearms

    You also need to make the arm boards differently then, and do R&D to see what works what does not.
