Vladimir if the MA made me an hipster I will change them immediately!

Actually all the time my parents come to visit me, dad pushes me to change the Amp and the turntable. But before investing money I want to be sure. I auditioned a pair of Tannoy Revolution XT6F, they were quite good in the shop but a bit disappointing when taken home for the test. It might have...

The MA lack a bit with classical music. The Soundstage is not really there and the definition in the bass is not excellent. Vladimir until I read your post I never noticed harshness or coloration but today might be because I play a bit with the positioning I hear a lack in the mid. The high...

The dac is for the file on the computer.

At the moment the MA sound a bit boomy so a bit of bright is not an issue. The plans for the future also includes a new turntable (the marantz is not that good, particularly compared to the rega rp3 owned by daddy!) so I was planning to get something that can be easily paired with a good TT in...

Hello everyone, I am considering an upgrade to my modest hifi system. What I am particularly interested in is an expert opinion on what could be the bottleneck of the system as it is. The system in question is the following: Turntable: Marantz TT165 with ortofon omp10 Amp: Marantz pm45 Dac...

Yesterday I spent some time doing a test: I compared a digital (16/44) recording of High Hopes by Pink Floyd (downloaded form Qoquz) with the flac 24/96 that my father extracted from the vinyl of same album (the turntable he used is a rega rp3, I don't known the ADC). The test was not scientific...

I know it is a hard question. I read thousands of topics on the matter but there are a lot of different opinion on the matter. My question arises since my dad recently replaced its turntable and he offered me the old one. I accepted the offer (my amp has the phono input) but the problem...

Nora Jones - turn me on. just receie the CD this afternoon. *biggrin*

The optional small speaker and subwoofer later if needed is appealing. I am not to wooried about how they looks if they sound great. And my girlfriend is quite forgiving about this matter since she like music as well.

Johan the used option was soimething I considered but I have no idea where to look at. The most famous second hand wesitye like ebay and gumtree sounds good but i don't think I will be able to try them before buying. My main concern is not the apartment where I live now which is rented and...

Hi guys, I fell in the white rabbit hole... after getting a new pair of headphone and a dac is time to replace the cheap system bought form currys so I need more advice from the experts. Currently my music is stored as flac in an old laptop which is connected to a Teac UD-H01 hat send the...
