    TURNTABLE SETUP Questions thread - don't start a new thread, ASK YOUR QUESTION HERE!

    Thanks for the responses. Two for RP1 and one for the Project. If there are better TTs out there within the 600 dollar range or if there is a big performance boost spending a 100 or so more, please drop me a line. Don't forget I need a preamp as well. Thanks!

    TURNTABLE SETUP Questions thread - don't start a new thread, ASK YOUR QUESTION HERE!

    I absolutely hate to start a "what should I buy post" but I honestly read the last about 15-20 pages of this thread and still cannot make up my mind. I want to invest in a turntable rig...budget is around $500-$600. I need turntable and preamp. Want to buy new because I don't have as much time...

    JH Audio JH16 Pro First Impressions

    Does anyone know how many CIEMS musicians go through performing on stage? They get pretty sweaty and stuff...if they are not having problems, I doubt a little gym activity will destroy these things.

    post your grado mods....

    Well, I know its not my amp because everything else was working fine out of it. So, like someone mentioned, it has to be the cable. I emailed Grado and its going to be $100. I guess I am going to have to bite the bullet on this one.

    post your grado mods....

    Hey guys, just wanted to stop in here and make a quick post/plea for help before I put this in the Headphones forum - So, the other day I picked up my RS1s only to realize that the right channel is completely gone. I have no idea why or how but it is not working. Does anyone have any...

    Custom or Universal at ~$200~$400?

    Hi there,   If I were you, I would invest in a pair of customs. Now I dont really know much about the 1964 Ears but here is my experience. I had universals and loved them, owned the Shure E3 and then E4s. Didn't think it could get any better than that so I was pretty sceptical when I ordered...

    First Post- Looking for advice

    Quote: Another vote for the 1+ with Grados. Truly a pretty impressive combination taking into account the price range. 1+ is a hybrid tube amp so it is perfect for low impedance cans

    Shure E3C vs 1964 Ears

    Huge difference in comfort as well for my ears at least, size of ear plays a role here. Regarding audiologist, well you gotta do what you gotta do. Also, make sure you tell the audiologist to use a bite block.

    Shure E3C vs 1964 Ears

    You should definitely give this a shot. Though I have not tried the 1964 Ears and cannot vouch for them, I have tried the E3 and E4 (I still currently own these). In addition, I have a pair of custom molded Triple Fi's, which are 3 driver balanced armatures just like the 1964 Triple. Basically...

    Little Dot MK IV or Schiit Valhalla for Beyer T1?

    Quote: Not at all. I am assuming your budget is around $400 correct?

    Newbie Amp Decision

    When I first got into this hobby, like you I also wanted a Tube amp. So after much research I went with the Little Dot MKIII. The reason I chose that amp was that I had high impedance Beyerdynamic DT990's and they greatly benefit from a OTL Tube amp. Now, with that being said, I would not...
