Look for an integrated amp with adjustable settings for phono, like this one (the amp I own):   http://www.thevintageknob.org/sony-TA-F700ES.html   Sansui, JVC, Pioneer, Yamaha, Marantz, Onkyo, Denon, Kyocera, and other companies produced similar integrated amps.

    Yeah, I got really tired of all the hassles. Even the best LPs (usually Japanese) had flaws. Eccentricity, warps, ticks, pops, dirt attracted by static electricity, non-fill, pre- and post-echo. I had a British import copy of Sandy, and in the song "Quiet Joys of Brotherhood", the pre-echo...

    Hilarious. The irony about the resurgence of 'vinyl' is that most people are playing their records on garbage turntables.

I owned a fine TT set-up. Thorens TD-125 Mk II, Magnepan tone arm, Stax cartridge. Cannot do much better than that.

    A decent turntable/arm/cartridge costs $5000 minimum. It still won't match an entry-level CD player.

LPs sound like ca-ca

  Huh?

Try Rogers LS5.

LOL   Sorry, I'm just fed up with all the hipsters claiming vinyl is so good....it sucks.

Yep!

Phonograph records are grossly inferior to the best CDs. It's not even close. Don't drink the Kool-Ade.   http://www.oregonlive.com/music/index.ssf/2014/11/does_vinyl_really_sound_better.html   http://pitchfork.com/thepitch/29-does-vinyl-really-sound-better/

I have an old UK version pressed in Swindon, and an old UK version pressed in Japan. Those two to me sound identical. I also have the 20th anniversary edition, which sounds a bit 'cleaner' but is definitely compressed in some way. For instance, the loud parts of Us and Them are definitely less...

anybody have a pair of V-7's to sell? I sat on mine and broke them.

Quote: Does anyone here have a pair of MDR-D333 headphones? The ear pads may be about the same size as those of the MDR-D77.

Quote:     Does anyone know where I can get replacement ear pads for these, or ones that will fit?

Those who are looking for this portable headphone, please look in the sell/trade section here. I am selling mine on e-bay.   Mike

Hello! Anybody out there?

I broke the left yoke on my MDR-V7. Sony says they cannot fix, I believe this is the same as the 900ST. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks

Quote: Originally Posted by PeterR I have both. In short, treble on the 900ST is less in your face and somewhat more refined. Bass is much dryer, with deep bass totally AWOL compared to the 7506. If you're looking for polite and easy to listen to, the 900ST may be your thing, while the...

Why? Something wrong with film?

They're not made anymore: The Sony MDR-D77 was the best. I own two pair.

Sony MDR-V6 or 7506 (Pro version)
