Hi,
Long time no post
I hope everyone's doing well and listening to great stuff. I'm still on my mini-disc player with my TTVJ Milletts Hybrid portable amp and HD25ii.
Thing is, I stopped listening to music for some time due to the wobbles.
I mean... my mini-disc earphone socket wobbles, so the channels wobble with one disappearing, and making it very unpleasant. Then, the interconnects have broken (I have 4 broken ones!) and now my TVJ portable amp, also has a wobbly connection. I found out after buying a cheap 3.5mm to 3.5mm cable from amazon and it still wobbles.
So that's about 5 wobbly 3.5mm jacks!
I know the Astell & Kern hi-res players are nice, but I can listen to 192kHz on Hi-Md minidisc and I quite like choosing a few discs, rather than having a mindless encyclopaedia on hard drive player to carry.
Is there any way to get these all fixed? I mean, is it even economical to do so, since the 3.5mm contacts are all loose...
I'd hate to upgrade to something more modern than my minidisc player and portable tube amp. But if it's not feasible, I see Ray Samuels is offering a good deal on his tube amp.
Kind regards
