    KEF LS60 Wireless', the plot thickens (as does the sound!)

    So as noted, been living with these things for about a month now. They are a truly great product but like everything, not without flaw, quirk, and compromises. Without wanting to lay down an entire review what I will say is that I recently made two changes; 1) My room is very big and open to...

    Supatrac: the world's best tonearm?

    I think Leroyd is giving some sage advice, or at the last sage consideration. Many companies or corporations make the mistake of trying to scale when scaling wasn't necessarily required, or at least scaling to the degree they shot for before everything went bust from underneath. All companies...

    Supatrac: the world's best tonearm?

    I preferred C. It was louder, but it seemed snappier, and more "grippy" than D which to my ears sounded a little syrupy and sluggish by comparison (keyword "LITTLE"). That being said, I could care less if the Supatrac is either C or D, if it's hanging with the SAT, it's a freaking miracle of...

    MQA sucks

    Tricky, I'm really not sure what you mean. As I said earlier I have a family acct. to Tidal, and I do not have an account to Qobuz. Ergo, I'm not trying to screw any artist out of anything, royalties or otherwise, rather it's just about my own expenses. Secondly I purchase plenty of physical...

    MQA sucks

    Really sorry to bring this up as I'm clearly behind the curve. really really really really really really really sorry. Sorry. Really.

    MQA sucks

    Perhaps I should've written "Frugal". I'm not shy of plunking down money on a purchase well-considered (and, on that note, I'm currently figuring out my next TT moves and the I'm keeping one eye on a Supatrac--Richard, are we taking reservations yet?? šŸ¤£ ) but monthly payments are a cancer to...

    MQA sucks

    I absolutely love Tannoys, but having moved into our new home, we simply don't have the space for it. After we rented out the basement apartment(s) I was left with either my office for a listening room, which isn't really conducive either in terms of layout or acoustics, or, the main large...

    MQA sucks

    It's been about 2 months now that I've been living with KEF LS60 Wireless. I have a lot to say on them, overall very positive, but as much as I never thought I'd care, MQA blows. I've been using nearly exclusively TIDAL connect via the KEF app (which works for the most part very well and is...

    Confused about Tannoy

    I maintain that the pepperpot waveguide was part of the overall effect of the vintage Gold Monitors. I don't think the tulip waveguide has the same overall compression "effect"--it just sounds less dynamic even if more accurate.

    Supatrac: the world's best tonearm?

    What wonderful irony in, "...FFS, leave the hyperbole at the door...." I've read your missive a few times and still have yet to derive a point. Of course Supatrac will have to refine the execution--as any caring company would do--and of course the price will go up. It bears nothing relative to...

    Supatrac: the world's best tonearm?

    Corey Greenberg was a phenominal reviewer; amazing writing style, entertaining, and detailed. Plus his reviews were hilarious. He was caught taking payouts of some kind, something corrupt which wasn't acceptable. His career ended. You can accuse Fremer of being annoying or whatever you like...

    Supatrac: the world's best tonearm?

    Looks like it: https://trackingangle.com/equipment/the-supatrac-blackbird-farpoint-a-tonearm-like-no-other Richard, put on the rubber underpants and ask your wife to pinch you: no you're not dreaming. ... But keep dreaming. Big.

    Sideways Uni-Pivot Arm, SUPATRAC Blackbird, formerly "Ekos Killer (Price?)"

    So few people starting a business listen to the criticisms thrown their way. Richard, you've done this in spades. It seems you are poised to have great success, which you should wholeheartedly enjoy and build upon. Thanks so much for including the community in this endeavour. What's most...

    Tune Dem Experiences

    If it was about 16 years ago I only remember visiting (was already in T.O. But came back for the high holidays) and it was the Artikulat 350a's with both a cd12 and an original klimax ds. I definitely remember the boominess.

    In home streaming from analog source

    Yes, precisely. Again my bad on use of the word "Streaming" as opposed to 'transmit'. I just want to maintain a 24/192 consistency.
