    What is the point of CD rips?

    Because you may not be able to find the mastering that you prefer. In my case a lot of storied audio gear travels with me. (& I tend to to places that don't get a cellphone signal)

    NAD 2200 Vintage Amplifier Review

    And don't believe the negative hype, either. Just know that in great hands (for refurbishment [not just a basic re-capping] & a bit of modding, while keeping the design circuitry the same) will result in a very high rating amplifier (when using the lab inputs). If all is working correctly, it...

    Technics SL 1210GR2 Turntable

    I suspect that would be pretty hard to notice for most people listening to one side of an LP & then turning it over to listen to the other side. Perhaps some drummer's might be better than he average person at catching that.

    Technics SL 1210GR2 Turntable

    It has been refurbished about 10 years ago & since then I have replaced the drive belt to the linear tracking arm. I also have a refurbished DUAL 1229 with an American walnut plinth that I gave as a gift to my mother for her system. She has it in almost daily use several hours a day, playing...
