  1. Very nice it will be interesting to hear what you think. NEW Yes

    I wish they would find a few warehouses full that they forgot about with all the popular old brands.

    Dtel there is such a place..... vintageaudiowarehouse.com

    Can you actually purchase anything on this site? There's no clickable links.

  2. " I just changed phono stages and it made a huge difference for the better."

    Nu, what did you change too?

    I need to change my avatar from the factory shot to mine don't you thinkBig Smile

    I just bought a Jasmine LP2 MKII from the manufacturer. It transformed my vinyl frontend to a different level. I have a hard time describing sound, but all I can say is it sounds very tube-like. Once you get past the "made in China" stigma, I find it one of the true hi-fi bargains.

    My arm board and 12" cherry arm look very cool and sound great, but not as good as my SME 345 which i'm using now. I install the woodys once in a while for the heck of it.

  3. Now to the technical aspects of the question at hand. Only an idiot would would roll a joint using weed at $180 per 1/4 ounce. In case nobody noticed this is no longer the age of $15 lids and bambu is a plant not a paper.

    I guess I'm lucky to live between CA and CO[:P]

  4. Because it's harder to roll a joint on the "other" formats.[:D]

    It's all subjective, but I find my vinyl front end has a much deeper and wider soundstage than my CD player. It's also warmer and less fatiguing to me.

    It all depends on the turntable, cartridge, and most of all the phono stage. I just changed phono stages and it made a huge difference for the better.

  5. You really can't go by specs on phono stages. They're like tube amps, the specs might not be great but the sound can be amazing.

    I have a Musical Fidelity VLPS and Pyramid power supply that I may be willing to sell. PM me if you're interested.

  6. What cartridge to you have? If it's a low output moving coil, you'll need a step up transformer or a headamp. If it's a moving magnet your phono input on your reciever is all you need.

    If you have a moving magnet and it isn't working on your reciever phono input, your phono stage is bad.

  7. gagelle,

    Please let us know how you like that Hendrix vinyl. Last week I purchased the 180 gram remaster of "Are You Experienced" and it sounds great!! In fact, I liked it so much I went and ordered the 8 LP box set of "West Coast Seattle Boy" the Jimi Hendrix Anthology that night. I listened to the first LP last night, I loved it!!

    Hey Rick... I think I'm going to order that one tonight... Gee... more expenses...

    Which one Boxx? The box set or Are You experienced?

    I sure hope the Led Zeppelin "Mothership" LP box set sounds as good as they say, I'll be finding out tomorrow...

    Mothership's okay, but nothing compared to an original Ludwig mastered sterling, or the Classic Records 200gm reissues.
