Audio Note has released a turntable called the Ginga which costs 60 thousand US dollars in Japan. (if you google Audio Note Ginga images you will find it very easily).My first reaction was pure cynicism, as Audio Note does traditionally price its pro...

Hi. First time posting. I had long admired an older friend's RX-5000. He left it to me when he passed last year (RIP, Bill) and I recently got possession and did a lot of cleanup on a table that had been sitting for a couple of decades. He has ow...

Dmitry, I have no idea. I always felt that Dynavector 10x4 is some kind of rock-in-roll cartridge and never had it. Still, it $200 cartridge, or way sub $200 in Japan, and it should not be a big deal to exchange it if necessary. The surface noise mig...

[quote user="genesis168"]I am a owner of an ET SU-1 and would like to know what phono stage would go best with it. Would a Lamm LP2 be a good match?Will be using a Dynavector XV1s with it. Thanks in advance[/quote]It is truly an interesting question....

Hi Romy,Interesting test you have conducted. Were the responses mostly unflat near the frequency extremes or was there variations even in the midrange? The reason I ask is because if you look at most of the published curve responses it is...

Ok, so I'm not really going to talk about the show itself, but more of some interesting things I learned. Yes, I did have a room, but that's not the point. I was able to borrow some speakers from Azzolina. They are of the unusual Lo...

This is my first post here, so bear with me if my set-up isn't as sophisticated as yours.More and more as of late I started to notice that records exhibit surface noise that was less pronounced [or absent] before. I bought this cartridge 5.5 years ag...

Where those EdgarHorn Titans with the Edgar’s woofers? I ask because I am very concerned about the LF response. The Shelter 901 has phenomenal bass in my view, even now. In fact all my system/room in a way “calibrated” from the bass that Shelte...

[quote user="hagtech"] Then there was the Stereophile writer we had dinner with who thought Wilson was the top of the heap [/quote]
….and I would agree. With all Wilsons limitations I sincerely feel that the big Wilson are the most interesting direc...

Romy,
I don't know if you have seen this effort by a gentleman in Greece. As I said, I'm not really a fan of the high mass approach. (I've listened to a few but generally find them tonally unbalanced) This design seems to take that approach qui...

Here are some my ideas for an “Unlimited Turntable”. Feel free to share some of your ideas… An “Unlimited Turntable” should allow multiple arms. It should be a good quality arm with a good stereo cartridge…. Also, it should be a good quality arm with...

I disagree with many concussions and methods that those guys use but still I appreciate that people took the task and tied to attach is as good as they know of:
“After carefully reviewing the marketplace and the technology currently being used we be...

user="rom661"]Hi. I acquired and spent a lot of time on this
guy over the last few months. I've installed a Dynavector 507 MK II tonearm and
a Dyhavector XVS-1 cartridge. I read Romy's comments that in his
experience with the 8000 the be...

This kind of freakish subject and the title of this thread is most likely is very misleading. Commonly the term “last something” is used as “best of the best” after which there is nothing else to explore. This definition grotesquely stink with heavy ...

Hi Romy and others,One thing that I have struggled with for some time is that I have always been plagued with
inner groove distortion on the majority of my records (many new, all cleaned with Nitty Gritty).
Inner Groove Distortion on the sibi...

Gluttons for punishment, Mark and I went to the Newport
Beach audio thing-ee again this year. Generally, I was most struck by how much
lower audio expectations seemed to be, even lower than last year. It seemed
like it’s sunk to the poin...
