Big Lots. Dont be afraid to pay a visit.
For the price I paid, I should've bought 4 more.

Where did you find the record racks?

I have added Musical Fidelity X-CAN V8 to the system.
Now I can listen to LP at night without limiting sound volume.

I've read lots of negative reviews on this unit, but sounds just right. I may tryout the USB connection later down the road.

System edited: Got a pair of Brines Acoustics FB-20 from a local gentleman (Mikefan) this afternoon. My very first experience with Single-Driver speakers. Very cool stuff so far.

System edited: I have added a modified RB-250 to my spare Technics SL-1200mk2. The combination of Transfiguration and Rega is much more than I expected.

Thank you for your kind words. I have been enjoying this setup quite a bit.

I have added a new member to my system.

Transfiguration Temper Supreme.
I don't think it will work on my KAB SL-1200 arm, so will need to install a Rega arm on my Spare SL-1200.

Rega Mount and VTA adjuster by Origin Live are on their way.

Any suggestion to RB arms are welcome. Modded 250, 300 or a stock 600?

Thanks and have fun,

This could sound obvious but audio is here only for the love of music not viceversa.
AMEN to that my friend .

Your is a real music lover environment and this mainly because the amount of records you have. See it makes me sick to see over these pages multi millionaire audio system and no trace of software or very little.

My Sweet vinyl rack? Get ready.......

Big Lots!!!
$30 a rack($120 total) Not sure if it beats other exotic audio stands, but feedback hasnt been an issue for me.

Love the rig. Where did you get that sweet vinyl rack?

bcretty October 04, 2008 03:44

Hiro,

Great looking system! I definitely need to stop by and listen to those Tylers sometimes. It brings joy to my heart to see local hi-fi manufacturers getting the recognition they deserve. Great system, great pics, thanks for posting!

I owned the EAR 834 Deluxe phono stage, it uses a step up transformer. I prefer tubes doing the job but there are a lot of options for transformers that I have not experimented with.

Several years ago I had the Express Tech step up, the one that the size of a amplifier and weighs like one too. It was not my cup of tea as they say.

Thanks Albert.

LP rack is a great foundation for audio gear, especially analog. Technics deck changed my mind on Direct Drive TT. I have another Technics and will install a REGA arm to see what if it'll sound better than my KAB unit. Should be interesting.

Have you heard any particular SUT that you've liked?
I'm enjoying my very first experence with SUT and am enjoying it tremedously. I am curious to hear what other trans can do to my system.

Thanks and Have fun,

Covering your walls at first reflection point has proven very effective in most systems and it does not have to be an expensive process, I think you're on to something there.

Love all the LP's and that's a great shot you've included of the EAR 834.

albertporter September 15, 2008 04:18

Sorry about that.
Clearly my system is aesthetically challenged. But my room is acoustically sound...well it's getting better anyways. I'm interesting in trying out some sound diffusors. DIY Room Lens or walls of diffusor panels.

Thanks for looking,

ainkfek September 15, 2008 04:01

Hope to see photo's soon. What you've put together reads to be a really nice sounding system.
