I recently purchased the Marantz cd60. Happy with the quality of the player but i've come across a problem which i cannot solve. I love recording onto minidisc i've always loved the format. I have 3 minidisc decks and have had no problems with them, the problem is when recording from the...

Thanks for all the replies, i for one am not prepared to spend silly money on a dac that MIGHT and i express the word MIGHT give me a smidgen of an increase in sound quality. I'll stick with what i have and buy more cds and records. Saying that i might upgrade my turntable, i currently have the...

Hi folks, i bought a second hand onkyo c-7030 cd player after reading rave reviews and purchased it because of the wolfson dac inside. Later i realise that the later players had a dac change i think AKM. So i purchased a cambridge audio dacmagic 100 which does have wolfson, this got good reviews...

thought the vote was for the stones or the beatles. Why are people talking about other bands. THE BEATLES.

Back in the 80s i used to have svhs for hifi recordings. I had about 100 tapes and used to keep each artist per tape. I could get about maybe 4 or 5 albums per tape. Great sound quality. The only draw back was if you wanted to play an album that was located in the middle of the tape, used to...

I'm running proac speakers with roksan blak amp. They pair up very well, the amp has plenty of muscle. The speakers have downward firing ports so are easy for room placement

I have the sony jb930 and the sony ja 20es both are very good decks. I love all the editing you can do with mini disc, especially cutting out all the gaps between tracks. Sounds a bit anal i know but i hate 4 or 5 second gaps between songs Black sabbaths technical ecstasy has gaps of about 6 or...

And i suppose in a blind test you can hear the difference between mp3 320 and flac mr. golden ears

it amazes me the amount of people that say i don't get any clicks or pops on my records. I don't believe that . And yes classical music does sound better on cd than vinyl.

majority is ok but some of the second hand ones are a bit snap crackle and pop. If i got the sugar cube i would hunt a lot more in the second hand bins.

i need an external one to sit between the turntable and sugar cube

Well i tried the rega fono mm mk3 against the roksan blak built in phono today and thought the blak sounded better. To be honest i was hoping the fono would sound better, the reason i say that is because i want to invest in the sweet vinyl sugar cube and to hook that up to my system i would need...

I still record onto minidisc an absolutely fabulous medium.

Hello folks, does anybody know how a rega fono mm mk3 phono stage would compare to the built in phono stage on the roksan blak amp. Thanks everyone

If people spend £20,000 on a system they automatically think that it will blow a £3,500 system out of the water. Sometimes it will sometimes it won't. And it's also called hi fi snobbery.
