    Cartridge purchase during Covid times

    I'm curious: how do members go about purchasing something as subjective and finnicky as a cartridge, when it's not really feasible to visit shops and audition or otherwise evaluate in person?

    Marantz 2270 Opinions

    Hey everyone, There is a guy selling a 2270 for $500 locally. Since I've gotten into audio, I've wanted to get a Marantz because they are beautiful and I've listened to them and love their low end. I don't know anything about the reciever, I am assuming it is in working unrestored condition, I...

    Just got my first McIntosh! A MAC 4200 Receiver.

    Hello! Over the course of the last couple of years I have been split between two systems that were both primarily made up of Yamaha components. My first system at home contained a Yamaha R-100 receiver, K-2000 cassette deck, Genesis 1+ speakers, ADC Sound Shaper One Ten MK.II, and a Dual...

    What Records Have You Bought Most Recently ?

    I have just bought the Time album of ELO from a store in Malaysia in February, at the equivalence of USD 5, and an album of Mayumi Itsuwa at USD 15 (both used, in very good condition). One of my most satisfying purchases lately.

    Purchasing transistors and power caps on ebay, should I?

    I'm sure that I will get some rather opinionated responses to this post. What are the chances that large filter caps listed on Ebay are any good? Will they be the actual brand that are advertised? If a component tester specs them out okay, would they still be worthwhile to use? There are...

    Sony PS-LX430 purchase advice

    OK, I'm still hunting for a turntable. A bit of background - I'm attempting to build a system that doesn't need to be high end, but I want something better than I'm doing now, which is an ION TT-USB hooked up to my computer and playing through tiny computer speakers. This Sony PS-LX430 is...

    Tube vs. SS General Purpose Headphone Amp

    I'm back after my really long hiatus, as I've got a pair of the Massdrop HD 6XXs on the way, and I need a headphone amp to drive them. My musical taste leans heavily towards rock (alternative, post-hardcore, classic) and hip-hop, but I do listen to the occasional acoustic session as well. I...

    Fisher rack system - a good buy?

    Good morning from India. I have always been a fan of vintage HiFi... My dad introduced me to this world in the 70s. Am planning to get back into the madness, but am not very clued in to Fisher, as a brand. Specifically, I have been offered a whole rack system from 1987 for about Indian Rs 20,000...
