Re: Hermanns System
Looking at the pictures, I cannot keep myself from asking, why the Briks are placed so high up? The total height of the stand seems higher than the speaker itself (76 cm). The original stands are around 33 cm, which is supposed to bring the tweeter to the ear level. Graham also specifies, that the t...

Re: Opinions welcome, cheap MC on Planar 3 / Linto
Thanks for your replies. A lot of input to think over. Maybe keep the Elys 2, sell the Linto and get my own creek MM preamp. Maybe better spend some money for a power supply. Don't you have a friend, where you could try the Linto? Anyway, a Creek phono pre wouldn't be my first choice. Why don't you...

Re: Opinions welcome, cheap MC on Planar 3 / Linto
If you go by the traditional rules, the effective mass of the Rega arm is too low for the Denon 103, so you will probably loose some bass performance. It wouldn't be my first (or second) choice for a Rega 3. What is your budget? If you definitely want an MC cartridge, maybe an Audio Technica AT33EV ...

Re: Playground for practical listening exercises
Great shootout charlie1! For the first 10 seconds or so I really liked the first combo, however as the track progressed, the second combo really started to perform and pull into the lead. The first combo sounds great, but in comparison to the second combo it seems a bit brash and loud, whereas the ...

Re: Charlie1's System
I think it would have been interesting to hear all 3 speakers in their optimal position. The Kans didn't sound like they should that far from the wall. Then again, you haven't found the best position for the 109s yet...

Re: Mobile Phones with Better Sound
The problem with iphones is getting a decent signal to an external DAC. I've had no success. Really, I have no problems there. I use an older model of this DAC with a lightning connection on one end and a headphone socket at the other end. https://www.adv-sound.com/collections/audio-adapters/produc...

Re: Charlie1's System
I have far better experiences with the Kabers, a friend had them first active with LK100, which was pretty ok for the time. With 3 x LK280 + Spark they really came on song and we had a lot of fun listening very loud until late in the night.

Re: Hermanns System
@Hermann: Maybe the new Graham 5/5f floorstanders are the right speakers for you? I was very impressed by them at the Norddeutsche HiFi-Tage this year.
Were the 5/5 you borrowed brand new?

Re: Hermanns System
I only listened to "Take Five" and preferred G2, the drummer sounded a bit disjointed on G1.
