Re: Playground for practical listening exercises
@Charlie1. I tested with a Cardas set-up Record where there is a voice speaking first on the left and then on the right. The iPad probably records in Mono. Even when recording directly in-between the...

Re: Playground for practical listening exercises
Definitely sounding much clearer now! I’m not referring to the musicality by the way, which is very good. I wonder if you are also recording in mono. It’s taken Apple much longer to roll out stereo th...

Re: Playground for practical listening exercises
Hard to tell as the recording sounds a bit muffled. Maybe your hand slightly obscured the mics or it was still in the case. Or perhaps try to position the phone a bit higher and nearer.

Re: Playground for practical listening exercises
Had another listen.

Re: LP12-50 Udate
My dealer has done a few and compared to their stock Klimax LP12 he said it's a lot better, but I don't know of any owners that have posted anywhere. Maybe buyers are less likely to frequent forums.

That’s all we want isn’t it, just to enjoy music. If only it were that simple - we each have to find our own way there. You’ve been on quite a journey esp the last few years of CD player tweaking. Jus...

Re: Linn M109 system fit?
They are not a bottleneck to my mind.
Never heard a SEAS modded pair.
I think trial and error. If buying new then defo get a home dem.

Not really since you have CB Naim. I’d stick with Kans unless you need a slightly fuller sound in which case I’d go for 42 or 42.5 with a 110, using 322/4 mm cards and leave out any snaps or hicap. Wo...
