Hi Jerry, hope you’re keeping well.
The PM-11 is a cracker actually and it’s making me feel better about the loss of the M2 (which was disgraceful from such a long established brand as NAD).
...
Thanks for all the suggestions folks, you’ given me a few good options to consider and it’s always nice to have personal experience over views of journalists!
As it happens, I had been considering the 1042 because of fond memories of my first turntable and the Goldring fitted to it.
What are you saying about Marco! How rude! :-)
I used to own a pair of 754s which a friend still has and loves, so I understand the attraction.... Can’t quite remember why I sold them now!
I rarely use this word, but that really is a sexy looking bit of kit!
Folks I’m looking for a MM recommendation to complement, or perhaps provide a contrast to my AT33EV
I do like the AT33EV but sometimes I wish for something with a slightly more ‘meaty’ midrange...
I know it’s relatively expensive (certainly to buy outright), but I’m very impressed with Roon as a media player.
I couldn’t stand iTunes and did use Audivana for a while, but after a trial of...
Yep it’s very disappointing. I have written to the Lenbrook Group CEO expressing my feelings that flagship product is beyond repair after just 7 years of introduction.... I’m not holding my breath....
Good grief! Yes please! (thanks)
Well it’s official. My very fancy, very expensive NAD M2 is officially dead and unrepairable.
After oh, about 7 years, a fault on the main board has consigned my M2 to the recycling bin. The...
I certainly plan to!
Current audio dilemma is that my NAD M2 has packed up and is with Sevenoaks for an attempted repair, which not looking good at the moment.
If it turns into a £5k brick...
Well it’s been a while since I was last here, so I just wanted to say hello.
Unfortunately, work and family complications (mostly now back on a even keel) have kept audio enjoyment to marginal...
Oh they are very different for sure, but I like them all for different reasons, but the 600 series are just great all-rounders and fab vfm, especially with the price of many new headphones that have...
I wasn't convinced of the value of headphone amps until a) I bought my HD800s and b) my Chord Mojo turned up. Now I don't have to listen without because its totally portable.
That said, some...
There's no two ways about it, the HD600 and HD650 were just great headphones, and especially it light of the headphone price arms race over recent years, amazing value.
I have a pair of each...
I know eh? Ducking spell-check.....
I've not gone crazy with my Techie (yet) but have to disagree re the external PSU. I'd say it's essential if you use a MC and worthwhile regardless. Plus it's easy to do and depending on the PSU...
The mistake was mine Richard, not yours..... :)
Just for the record, writing “Audivana” instead of “Audirvana” was just a spelling mistake.....
Yes I would, that's what I did and it sorted my issues.
Basically the option I took was NOT to select any music folders and then select and sync with the iTunes XML files in the iTunes library...
Hi Richard.
Did you add you music folder AND select your iTunes XML file? I did that to start with and got duplicates, but once I only used the iTunes library and sync'd, it was fine.
I have...
OK, so like some (many?) I have been somewhat stuck with iTunes as a music management tool (and it is, literally), because if you use a Mac, I've not found anything better. Plus of course I have...
Thanks Grant. Yes that was kind of my thinking. As you say, it was well liked 14 years ago but I suspected there were more modern options now which might be a better choice.
I'll have a look.
