Sorry, I replied without realising you’d already bought them! Look to be a bit of a bargain then. I haven’t got big speakers, but I must look at these this week……..

I’ve yet to come across one of these frames that’s even close to rigid. Maybe if you add a timber frame to the bottom of the legs, to form another rectangle?

Still happening for me. I did think maybe it was a loose optical connection from my node, but it’s not. Any ideas Stan?

Hi Stan. Thanks for the personal reply! I think the last chip I got from you was 30? It was just around the time of the Dorado 2 coming out- I’ve got the original Dorado.

Thanks for replying! It’s only on the optical input, from my Node 100 ?

Hi all Stan Fans. Occasionally, the above happens. It’s instantly cured by switching the Dorado off and on. Anyone else have this issue?

Yes, that’s a very damning review, followed by even more damning comments! He obviously didn’t get the instructions re power supply though. I’m pretty sure my SEG/ Dorado sounds better than his 😉

Not good reading............

This section seems to have become a stagnant backwater! Any news, Stan?

Thanks for taking the time,Stan. I think it’s easy to forget that sibilance is far from eradicated in modern recordings. I picked this up in the digital chain, as most of my vinyl is older...

Hi Stan. Trying to backtrack in my mind now for the guilty albums. One is definitely Cafe Blue, by Patricia Barber, which is fairly new to me, but apparently a hi fi show staple. Seems to become less...

Hi Stan. Many thanks for replying in person! This thread seems to have been very quiet of late. My SEG is unmodded, with the version 30 chip, running from a Mk.1 Dorado. I can't name recordings off...

Noticed recently that my SEG/ Dorado seems to emphasise sibilants on certain recordings. Anyone else find this?

I’m sure you’re right, but for me it was the difference between around £50 and £400 upwards!

Not sure Bulty, but I think you’re confusing a Disco Antistat machine with an antistatic brush? I’m sorry Marco, but they’re not “ dreadful things”, they actually work very well as many will attest....

Also, buying a new cassette deck is madness. I bought aDenon on eBay for a friend of mine for £20 and it’s perfect, so if he really wants one, why don’t you do the finding for him? I gave mine a wipe...

That’s a bit harsh and highly subjective. The guys basically a beginner and you’re already scaring him off!

Hi. Bit of clarity needed,I guess! The body is an AME1, but when I bought it from Lurch, who also posts on here, it came with three styli, only one of which was original. One was grey, which I...

Hi Peter. I’ve got a Pickering V15 AME 1 which I bought on the Wam. It’s got a used conical stylus on it and a NOS of the same, which I got on eBay. I paid £23 for the cart and £8 for the new stylus,...

I picked up a 2312 on eBay a couple of years ago for£100, possibly because it was collection only. Can’t fault it, apart from it having too many bloody menu options!

I’ve got a SEG with mk. 1 Dorado and I certainly wouldn’t call it veiled!

Yes, the ML was at the top end of my choices, particularly as the Stereophile review suggests a price rise this month, although maybe only in the US? There’s a price per hour chart somewhere on the...

You mean the ATVM95 e is a stunner? Or do you mean getting an EX stylus for the original 95? I’m about to buy one or the other!

I was looking for exactly this, but couldn’t find the right search term. I tried things like “slotted lid bumper”. I think someone is having a laugh here, though - seven quid for two tiny blobs? I’d...

I don’t know what the split is between people with a listening room and people who just use their living room, but I’d be interested to know!
