I stream through spotify, I use it all the time to find new artists and music I have never listened to. The only thing is that I dont have an attachment to the songs Im listening to because its strange but I dont feel that the music is mine, cannot explain it it just does not feel right. My main...

There are currently at 11 o'clock 396 items from Record Store Day 2012 for sale on e bay and counting. If you didnt manage to get something you want, rest assured there is someone who has no interest in vinyl out there that is prepared to make a profit out of you.

As you can see from my photo below my version of the Quest platter upgrade does have a label cut out and also a cut out rim which helps removing your vinyl off the platter.I assume then that this was produced for direct vinyl placement onto the platter without a mat. I have been using the...

I will give it a try and let you know. On the inspire hi fi site all the quest turntables are shown with the acrilmat so I assume that it is an integral part of the upgrade. I have also had a look at the HI FI World review of the Eclipse turntable made by Inspire and though the original first...

What do you mean by extra acrilmat CJSF ? I thought they only produced one. I have not tried playing without the mat directly onto the platter and I dont have the felt mat any more. I didnt replace the platter when I had the plinth and arm done so used the acrilmat on the glass platter, the...

I went with the new platter upgrade for mine.Its a new second option platter which is thicker , heavier and has a lip on the top to make it easier for romoving the record from the platter. I have nothing but praise for Inspire and the quality of there product.a great British success. Buying...

Personally yes, at the moment my CD player and Dac are sat redundant on my rack. I was always impressed with my original turntable but this has blown it out of the water.

Really happy with part one of the upgrade, love the polished ply finish on the sides. The whole experience of going to the Inspire factory myself , meeting Robert the owner and watching him do the rebuild made my day. It has turned my old Rega to the level of sound I thought I would never...

Im doing it in two stages with the birch plinth, the mat and new R251 tonearm being the first to be done. The platter and puck will come later in the year when finances allow. I will post some picks next week when I have had the work done. Im getting a bit excited , the fact I can go and watch...

After talking to the nice people at inspire instead of getting rid of my old Rega Planar 3 I have decided to go for an Inspire Quest Rega upgrade package. It had great reviews in another magazine and will certainly be a step up in class from what I have had now. Its more money but it will get...

Yes it does come with a lid, I sent them an e mail for some information and they could have not been more helpful. I have heard and read excellent feedback about the service they give and there mods for the LP12 have been very well recieved. I think I am going to order one in the new year. Cost...

Looking to replace my old turntable and I like the look of the Inspire i2 turntable. For the money it looks a great buy but I am struggling to find any reviews. Has anyone bought one or seen any reviews.

Took the plunge and I went out and purchased a toslink cable to connect my CD6003 to my Dacmagic and all I can say is wow. My test CD was Tom Petty Wildflowers and I noticed the difference immediatley. I have a small listening room and have never been happy with the bass control from my...

As the title states I have just bought a Dacmagic for the sole purpose of playng music from my laptop through my PM6003 amp and very impressed I am too. I also have the Marantz Cd6003 and the assistant said if I connected it up to my Dacmagic it would be an upgrade to the sound quality of the...

I stream Last FM on my Android Galaxy Portal Smart phone and play it through my Marantz PM6003 amp. The sound quality is fantastic it was a total suprise to how good it sounded.The phone does have Samsungs own DNSe (Digital Natural Sound Engine) built in which must be the reason for the sound...
