Eli7, you need the most musical digital source on this planet (and it still may not fulfill you needs) or just go analog.
That is a dilemma as you have pointed out that much of the music you want to listen to only is available in digital form. :-(

Re: Cheap power strips for best sound.
B has a kind of impressive sound but I connect better with the music listening to A.

Re: Playground for practical listening exercises
I am sorry to hear about it Thomas but at least we get to read about it here and you always write the best, most informative, funny (37th dec 2020) and most enjoyable (even when blowing up things) posts to read on this forum bar none! I will look forward to your next clips on this forum as I will lo...

Re: Playground for practical listening exercises
Sorry, beck, but I can't quite buy this. I have albums I have played hundreds of times and I hear no signs of wear on them (although I wouldn't try that with a worn Klyde). Actually, vinyl LPs are a more reliable archival medium than any other since CDs and tape both wear out over time even just si...

Re: Playground for practical listening exercises
I'm very happy for you, Beck. Yes CD can be very beautiful. I also loved my Naim CD players (linked to Naim) very much. It was really very nice. Back then, I sometimes asked myself why I actually had the LP12. (Yes, I once had an LP12, but I sold it.) Thank you Eli7. I hope you find your way back t...

Re: Playground for practical listening exercises
Instead of buy all your favorite albums on CD (and have it double), buy AT - VM95C or E (Your LP12 will be as it have to be in proper condition), which is price of 2-3 CD and use rest of money for new music on CD or LP ... Just as idea ... I like to have my favorites on both vinyl and cd. Playing m...

Re: Playground for practical listening exercises
Hi Beck Would you be able to list all of the things you have done to your CD player that have worked? I would be able to but it would not help you. It has all to do with everything from the floor and upwards. I think the main point is to get everything inside the cd player to vibrate the same way n...

Re: Playground for practical listening exercises
Didn’t realize you were in pickup problems beck. Maybe MM time? That is the reason why I am dragging you all through endless cd clips! :-) My hunt for decent cd replay started as a reaction to the Klyde being discontinued and the lack of will to use a lot of money on cartridges. MM could be a good ...

Re: Playground for practical listening exercises
Thank you all for listening and helping me find the best solution for my cd replay. I really enjoy it and new cd’s are coming to my collection. With Brexit it will not be cheaper to get a rebuild of my Klyde so it is not on my list right now though the Sondek being the most musical replay of recorde...

Re: Playground for practical listening exercises
I was also aware I switched opinion compared to before and thought about writing something else must have been changed. Something might have changed. One of my speaker cables came too close to my stand maybe resting on it in the first set of clips (A,B). I am continuing with no use of rubber pads.

Re: Playground for practical listening exercises
Error, error, error
A and D, B and C are the same and E is new.
The labeling (text) is correct all the way.
I meant to say that I prefer D to C but am enjoying E the most at the moment.

Re: Playground for practical listening exercises
I prefer C to D. Will check out E now Edit, prefer C to E as well I think. I prefer C over D for me its more difficult about E but I think C => E => D We agree about C and D. C is the preferred setup. I am at this moment enjoying E finding it to be very close to what I am searching for in the frame...

Re: Playground for practical listening exercises
Hmm... not sure we will be sure on this one. I hear the same tendencies but with a less clear preference. There's something about the rubber feet that makes the tune easier to follow for me and directly on the shelf still has that rumbling tendency I heard on the previous clips. But, I can also hea...

Re: Assistance with Linn system hub choice
Welcome MarcoPolo! First question: do you at present own any hifi equipment or are you in the proces of buying? If you are only into Linn Exact I will suggest that you pose your question to the Linn forum on Hifi WigWam. If you are openminded you might get some other options from forum members here.

Re: Playground for practical listening exercises
following the tune and emotion dont have to go along the same way - my understanding is that a system which involves you more emotionally can be ... but not necessarily is the more tunefull system.

I really like the feel of the “thumping” bass drum in clip B. If you focus in on it I find that you can feel a dance beat in that clip too.........

Re: Playground for practical listening exercises
Could it be that people with different temperaments (melancholic, sanguine, etc.) might unconsciously tend to prefer a (out of tune) system that corresponds more to their own temperament? For example, I lovingly named my Nait 3R minor (key) amplifier because it may appeal to my temperament better. ...
