    Sibilance on 7" records... Why?

    I have an AT-VM95ML on my Rega P1, and I am using a magnet on the back of the tonearm base to adjust the anti-skate. The anti-skate still seems to be correct, as the stylus does not tilt to either side relative to the headshell during playback, and I am pretty sure that, at least in the...

    Experts, please advise: Turntable w/ preamp --> Bluetooth transmitter --> Bluetooth headphones?

    Hey folks, I'm brand new to this forum. I've joined on account of my inability to find a solution (not to my own surprise) for my "audio system" and some headphones I've just purchased-- I will explain, of course. As I'm sure most of you have far more complex audio problems to solve, I will...

    Old amplifier Dual CV-1400 with new headphones Meza 99 Classics

    Would using this old, recapped amp be a risk to those fairly easy to drive headphones? Im not a loud listener by any margin but Im afraid I might burn them.

    Most Neutral Phono Cartridge Under $200 USD?

    I have an Audio Technica LP-120 turntable with an AT95E cartridge and am looking to upgrade. I've heard about Ortofon 2M Reds, but saw the Blue (which claimed to be more linear and less warm than the Red.) However, the Blue is double the price of the Red, and that claim seems suspect to me, due...

    Turntable Question - Pro-ject Debut Carbon Espirit SB and its place in the world

    Hi HF - I could post this in a more turntable oriented forum, but I like the HF community more. Where, in your estimation, does a ProJect Debut Carbon Esprit SB fall among turntables? Is it a stepping stone? Is the money better spent on a vintage table ?(everything else I use is vintage)...

    Turntable Pre-amps

    I've been doing quite a bit of reading up on some affordable yet good phono pre-amps on the market. The model I keep coming back to is the Schiit moni. I'm curious if anybody else has one or has any luck with one. I'm currently running directly to a Marantz 1060 phono stage and have great luck...

    How should I transfer vinyl music to iTunes?

    Hello, I am thinking about possibly purchasing a turntable so that I can start buying records to transfer to iTunes as digital files because I prefer the warmth of vinyl over digital music. Also, I like the pops in vinyl; I think it adds character to the music. I don't think I would use the...
