    Cart suggestions for Techics 1200 mk2

    I am a little intimidated with aligning carts, never done it before...which is why the KAB Ortofon is something I'm considering. That being said if another cart is that much more sonically superior then it's something I would consider. I have been also looking at preamps. Was looking at the...

    EPI-Epicure Speaker Family

    Greetings, I own (owned) several pairs of vintage speakers ADS, Dynaco, Klipsh, American Monitor... But my absolute favorite are the EPI 150's that I own. They seem to capture the vintage vibe yet are very detailed and clean, decent bass for the size. I have been shopping for some more...

    Can a missing dust cap damage a speaker?

    Vintage Audio

    Funny how the gear back in the 60's and 70's were not as efficient and didn't have the frequency response of the modern gear. But nobody ever said Jamerson's bass tone sucked, or Entwistle tone sounded like crap, or Hendrix's strat sounds thin. Vintage gear also has some of the same warmth...

    Pioneer Sx-737 Cracking Sound?

    Hello all Just picked up this vintage receiver I have to say I really like the warm sound, I haven't A/B'd it to the Marantz yet but I think it will be a tough showdown. At a little louder volumes I noticed one channel became scratchy and cuts out a little bit when the music got bassy...
