I know Micro Seiki made some turntables with vacuum hold-down.  Some branded Luxman were produced by MS too.  Then there is Basis and the new TechDas.  I have a Versa Dynamics 1.2 and when John ran out of mats I worked with him to find a new supplier...

IF you can "hear" SS amps, Romy, then your system must not be well set up, and be sensitive to the frequency shifts caused by tube amps. SS amps have NO sound that humans can hear. I use EQ'd high eff multi driver horn system, and I can tel...

I owned a Luxman LV-117 which I found pretty "right" musically driving some 93dB/w/m JBL's I had eons ago. In its time, there was a LV-103 which was also well regarded, but that I never listened to, so I cannot talk about it. They can ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] 6) Ok, the first half elephant in the room – the dynamics. Believe me or not but PP3000 is more dynamic then PP2000. It was very sensible from the very first note that I heard from the PP3000.  I do not know what to say ...

I have some “issues” with the 176.4kHz idea, particularly knowing the most of the RR recordings were not recorded in 176.4kHz. I am glad that they did not go for X48K format but stuck with X44 (I more like the Linn’s 88.2KHz “Studio Masters” idea). S...
