    Stanton 681EEE has been discontinued :(

    Thank you. I guess I meant more specifics. Dimensions and if it is a nude diamond. Is this a needlestein re-tip you refer to? Otherwise who is doing these? I have all 681 compatible Stanton / Pickering Carts installed currently with several versions of the Stereohedron plus a D1200 and a...

    OK to buy a new old stock stylus?

    I have a few NOS Stanton and Pickering Stereohedron Styli that I lucked out on. Most were purchased before they turned into gold a few years ago. I guess I am set but am always curious about the re-tipping being done. What happened to the stein of needles? I was away for a while.

    Recommend me a subwoofer!

    I just bought two of the SVS SB-2000 for my showroom setup at work from world wide stereo. They have them for $499.00 each or $949.00 for a pair, free shipping. They are doing a fine job so far, music only in a big room.

    Top 3 favorite USED speakers I should look out for, under $300?

    Epicure 20's, EPI 201's, EPI 250's are all exceptional. They do 50's and 60's Jazz very well and these double module speakers will reproduce "Exodus" faithfully. I have the 180's also a are nice in a big room. See this for a reference if you find any EPI / Epicures...

    Tandberg set - Chicago CL

    Anyone here buy this set? A 3008a pre, 3001a tuner and 3006a amp for $350.00. All working and looked nice. I gave it a shot but it only lasted a few hours and was gone. What a freaking deal!

    Stanton 681 eee II s vs At440mlb

    I have a Stanton 681 with the same NOS stylus and it has spoiled me. All 3 TT's now have Stantons with a variety of NOS Stereohedrons, of both Pickering and Stanton make. I also have a couple of the .2 x .7 elipticals now that are not going anywhere. One TT in my office has a lowly 600EE with...

    Pickering cartridge question / needlestien help

    I'll bring it back on topic... and answer an earlier question. I have the same TT in my office at work, a JVC JL-A40 that plays very nicely with a Stanton 600EE cart with original and like new EE stylus. I just put my Pickering DTL3s in it to see what would happen and it sounds simply...

    Drug these home! EPI M202’s

    Yes velcro... You have some very good sounding speakers. Check sound from tweeters, sometimes those magnets need to be reinforced with hot glue, epoxy etc. They cam also be easily recapped. Nice haul.

    Intermittent MM input in Tandberg 3008a preamp

    Yes, I have been very happy. The amp was gone over, reflowed and adjusted and had a speaker relay replaced by Larry at Approved Audio in CT. before I ever got it. It is very powerful and is just amazing sound wise. They are by far the nicest sounding components I have ever owned or heard. I...

    Intermittent MM input in Tandberg 3008a preamp

    Thank you. I have really been enjoying the 3008a and 3026a together. These have just sounded outstanding with any source. It is very quiet and very detailed and clean with HR digital files, SACD and the TT. So for the MC, I tried that and it was quite faint in both channels (should be...

    Intermittent MM input in Tandberg 3008a preamp

    My rather new to me Tandberg 3008A pre seems to have developed an issue with the phono input. It all works well for about 5 minutes and then the left channel cuts out. Initial tests seem to indicate the preamp inputs as switching RCA's do not change the issue, right to left. While both...

    What is a SHM-CD, will it play in my deck and output 24/192?

    Is that any better than a standard CD that may have been remastered by say Bernie G or Kevin Gray for instance? Do they sound good?

    What is a SHM-CD, will it play in my deck and output 24/192?

    I have found that a couple albums I like are available in the format and am interested in sound quality opinions and if the disc will play in a Marantz SA-8500 SACD/CD player. Most interested in Art Blakey - Drums Around The Corner UCCQ-5028, Made in Japan SHM-CD. This was never on vinyl...

    Should I include the SACD format in my main system?

    I have a couple of her SACDs on the way. I have to say that both DSD ( and.dff, dsf) files and ISOs sound very good. Is there a better choice than Foobar as a player? I do have both the DSD and SACD components installed.

    Should I include the SACD format in my main system?

    Ok. Finally got the DAC all correctly installed. I am kinda blown away. So far just jazz. 24/96 Coleman Hawkins Desafinado is the best I have heard it. Burrell Midnight Blue DSD was just so detailed.. high end and low end just perfect. Grant Green Grandstand ISO was also pretty freaking...
