    Why do records sound so much better than digital?

    Uncoloured phono cartridges

    Honestly no. Haven't looked in a long time at what Denon has available. I'm a septuagenarian with health issues which has reduced the vinyl playing significantly in the better part of the last decade. When I can I do enjoy my vinyl though. My carts are in very good shape FWIW too. What I'm...

    Uncoloured phono cartridges

    Interesting. I'm fond of both my Denon DL-304 and DL-103D cartridges. I use a DIY Cinemag CMQEE-3440A StepUp transformer with my George Merrill modified The AR Turntable with Sumiko Premier MMT tonearm. Started with a DL-301 back in 1983 and have preferred Denon MCs ever since although I'll...

    Amp recommendation for Maggie 3.7i, opinions welcomed

    I enjoy using a pair of Odyssey Audio Stratos SE+ monoblocks with my modified Magneplanar MGIIIa's. They are augmented with a Parasound HCA1200 driving a custom 15" sub. The system really 'sings" for me. :D

    Bang-for-buck amplifier for HD650

    I've been using and loving a Garage1217 Project Polaris v1.1 SS headphone amp w/"Mellow" bandwidth option with my Sennheiser HD600, Sennheiser HD580 (w/HD650 drivers, HD600 grills), and Philips SHP9500 w/2mm felt mod. This was designed by our own solderdude. :)

    Any impact on sound by zip-tying speaker cable together

    Carver TFM-xx Amplifiers

    Never have owned a Carver amp. But like Digital Mastering System I love and still use my TX-11a tuner. Sadly the one local station that broadcast AM-Stereo decided when their equipment failed to stay with plain mono. :( The AM Stereo was remarkable on this tuner. I also own a Phase Linear...
