Buying a house; buying new speakers
ajxd replied to ajxd's topic in Turntables & Other Audio Equipment
Damn. Got me there. Though the true answer is "never enough". Did the inspection on the house today, so I got some more ideas on things. 12'Wx15'D room. Also I had the realization I should do in ceiling speakers for the other rooms. I've been out of that game for years, what's good Tardy? -

/thread Thanks Tardy. I ordered enough for every room. -
Buying a house; buying new speakers
ajxd replied to ajxd's topic in Turntables & Other Audio Equipment
I had considered ML/electrostatic type speakers... I do not think the room will be big enough, sadly. See previous comment, but these are interesting. Thanks! There's a Wilson dealer across the street from me now. https://iconic.systems/gallery I'm seeing that stuff daily. Kills me, but they sell their old stuff on Audiogon too... -
Golden Ear Triton 3s. I was thinking something in the 2k range (used even better). I want a different sounds. Currently using Sonus Faber Venere 1.5s; previously used Boston Acoustics VR-3s. Been looking at the Tritons due to the ribbon tweeter (metal dome in VR-3s, soft dome in 1.5s), to mix it up a bit. Plus a bulky low end with powered subs seems really cool. But I'm open to ideas. Thoughts?

You must be new here.

Rotel RT-12 have a different color LED/background? Or is it just the photo? I'd go mad.

Did doug s. post that last post? I can't tell. -
Glad to see this board is catching up to AudioKarma 15yr later.

Which Ground Wire for a Pro-Ject Debut Carbon?
ajxd replied to B^2's topic in Turntables & Other Audio Equipment
If you aren't spending at LEAST $500 on a ground wire, do not even post here. -
How does one miss bad sound?

Fine tuning a bass to a 2 channel system is not an easy task. I took about two weeks with making minor adjustments every other day, to find my preferred setting. It needs to enhance the music, without being bass overkill. Find the frequency ranges of your speakers, figure out how low your sub needs to go. Buy a sub that meets those requirements. 15" sub is stupidly overkill for a living room. I use a 10" sub and its more than enough.

new Schiit $700 stereo/monoblock amp
ajxd replied to Tardcore's topic in Turntables & Other Audio Equipment
Does it sound like Schiit? -
We are printing tonearms. Maybe across the pond you are all stuck in a time warp?

I typically stop caring about people's opinions once they say anything about vintage audio in 2017. Audio has come leaps and bounds in the last 40 years, I would never want to purchase anything older than me again. Unless you're poor, then sure, buy a 30 year old table for $200 that was amazing for its time.

There's very few electrical components in a turntable. Mainly the motor. You could have fried it. http://www.nodevice.com/manual/6300-235251/get125605.html

stylus broke on my clearaudio cart...options?
ajxd replied to shamrocks's topic in Turntables & Other Audio Equipment
As that aforementioned member; it's a damn good fix. But I would recommend not using the AT95E but the AT95SA as it has the shibata shape and will more closely resemble the Virtuoso. -
Yeah nice Crosley chump.
-
Are you sure on the model? I can't find any information on that... If you know wattage, that also helps. Model #s for the Missions too please. As for breaking the bank, giving us a budget is most helpful. $100 can break some banks, $1,000 doesn't break others!

Started on Deadformat, will end on Deadformat. Goodbye cruel world.

You can never be happy.

Fuck your records, post better photos of your gear please. And list it out. That's one hell of a table!

Just ordered a Marantz... now I can be cool, too.
ajxd replied to xxmartinxx's topic in Turntables & Other Audio Equipment
Will all you quit whipping your dicks out. Let's get to the matter at hand. When's the Marantz showing up? Will you video your reactions of listening to it the first time? Can we taste your tears? -
