Rockitman's System

Owner

Between the Lamm and Allnic. Lamm seems to get the best characteristics of solid state (super low noise) with the romance of tubes. The Allnic is a bit warmer, richer in its presentation. The noise floor only slightly above the Lamm. I like listening to both equally. I do have more gain with the Allnic which comes in handy with carts in the .15 mV output range. The EQ feature is useful on the Allnic...especially if you collect original UK Decca Records and or original Mercury’s from 1957 and 1958 before they fully adopted RIAA EQ.

It’s been a while since I updated my system. The American Sound AS-2000 turntable was added over the weekend. My vinyl spinner journey has finally ended. Puts my other TT’s to shame....not even close in the listen8ng experience department.

Lamm LP1 Signature Phono added to the phono stage stable. It makes a nice alternative sound to the Allnic H5000-DHT phono. As such I will keep both units active in my system.

Hi Albert. Best tube by far and no exaggeration. I could open a tube store for all the different rectifiers I own for the H5000. I bought mine on eBay. The date code is a 4 digit number. The first two digits are the year of manufacture. I have ones made in 1960.

Here a search of current listings.

Received the Western Electric 422A rectifiers yesterday and had a good listening session last night. The tubes exceeded expectations by a large margin. As with the many other tubes I have tried in the Allnic H5000, there have always been compromises, such as great bloom, decay and bass extension at the expense of softer bass and or slightly rolled highs. Not the case with the WE's. Best grip I have had on the bass, best treble extension, sweet mids and perfect bloom and decay times. They are worth every penny for the H5000 DHT. Phono playback is now on another level of reproduction that I have not experienced before.

System updated. Latest tweak is a pair of "Holy Grail" NOS Western Electric 422A rectifier tubes (Domino style gray plates) made in 1960 which are really a substitute for 5U4G's. They are 5 volt, 3 amp filament current tubes I am going to use for rectification in my Allnic H-5000 DHT phono stage. I should receive the tubes by the end of the week. I hope this is the end of the road. For voltage regulation I am using Takatsuki 300B's. Note for Allnic 5000 users...make sure you have the heavy duty resistors installed in order to handle 3 amp filament current.

Albert,

According to KS, the gain level for H5000 is exactly the same for xlr and RCA. He says both output options should sound exactly the same from a circuit standpoint because they are both transformer coupled. The toggle switch is to switch the ground to pin 1 on the xlr connector. Any noise difference will depend on the quality of the RCA or xlr connector in question.

rockitman June 29, 2015 22:05

I ordered 2 from your comments and I have to agree with your experience including transparency, extension ... TS NOS 5U4GB WAS my favorite but Tele is amazing. I ordered 4 more plus Thorsten is a great guy to deal with.

Its amazing the variety of sound flavors you can get by rolling the rectifiers. I am using RCA mil spec 5U4G's from the late 50's currently.

rockitman June 29, 2015 21:13

Owner

Allnic H5000 DHT phono output connection. What are users of this phono stage using...XLR or RCA outs ? I think XLR is transformer coupled since there is a switch that must be turned on for XLR as the unit is single ended design. I have been using XLR in the past and just tried singled ended rca outs. I think I like the sound better. Arnie, Albert...what do you guys use ?

rockitman May 29, 2015 20:20

Owner

Hard to explain in words, but it does everything the xp30 does but better.....of course diminishing returns kick in at this level. I am happy with the upgrade and it was worth the higher price of admission....to me anyway. I think there are added synergies using the xs pre with xs amps. Think more refined and extended over the xp30 which is still a fantastic preamp.

Knghifi,

Don't think of it as a waste. During my short 5 hour demo I used two Apollo cables and two Atlantis "silver cables". In my system, the Atlantis sounded considerably better for reasons I don't understand. The Apollo cables are also silver. The Atlantis cables have two spade cable branches vs only one for the Apollo. I suspect 2 branches has more capacity to drain away ground plane grunge.

So I finally drank the "Clean up your ground" kool-aid. I am glad I did. Here are some obsevations I posted in another forum.

72 Hour Entreq Observations:
1) dramatically reduced system noise floor.
2) Music erupts from the absolute black abyss...very noticeable and welcome.
3) Challenging leading edge transients never go over the edge... sibilance and any remnants of glare from aggressive, large orchestral passages seemingly disappear.
4) Music is clearer, less distorted and I didn't think I had any distortion. It just sounds more real and less recorded.
5) Perceived depth and width of the sound field is also significantly enhanced. Music blooms w/o borders/restrictions and each instrumental, percussive and vocal element space is better defined.
6) Recorded ambience and note decay is more realistic.

The setup as mentioned before are two Silver Tellus boxes and 6 Atlantis eartha rca to spade cables. Two cables (L&R) for phono input, two cables (L&R) for main preamp input and two cables with separate Tellus box for power amp inputs..rca. I also have noticed that any other source device plugged into the main pre benefits...along with digital sources. That is it for now. I would like to thank again Bill Demars from Beauty of Sound for getting this stuff in to try.

They add dramatically to the perceived depth and width of the sound stage with minimal absorption. They made a big difference in my room. The fire extinguisher is there in case something wanted to start on fire. Not really worried too much about it..lol

Hi KMccarty,

The UHA is still breaking in. It is hot rodded and only offers IEC playback eq with the stock record and erase heads having been disconnected. There is no way to run a burn in cd signal to it to expedite quicker break in. I maybe have 40 hrs on it. Compared to my Technics 1500 nortronics head wired to a king/cello repro pre, the sound is more transparent with better micro detail. Dynamics also excel. The bass is more extended and more importantly has better coherence through it's range...no mid bass bump. I am happy with the machine as it handles tape better and safer than the rest of my decks and no side of tape, tape shedding. Whether it is my studer, technics, otari's, they all tend to flake a little oxide off presumably from the tape sides going through the guides. No such issue with the UHA...it's path is pure and smooth. I will comment more on it's sound after I get more time with it.

Hi Dev,

I am using a recently acquired Lyra Olympos mono for the rear 12" Phantom Supreme. Mono records have never sounded so good. My other mono cart on the CA table is a Ikeda 9TT. The Lyra kills it in resolution, transparency and frequency extension. I use a Dynavector XV-1t and a Koetsu Coralstone on the Elite 10" arm in the main slot. actually the Coralstone was in the rear slot and when I went to replace it with the Lyra, I noticed I had snapped off it's cantilever. It is going in for a complete rebuild at Koetsu for a cool $4,500.00. Tough lesson, so to make a long story short, a Tiger Eye is filling in. Two very distinct sound favors. The XV-1t seems to be a bit faster and more extended in the bass region. The Koetsu is no slouch. I enjoy them both.

Hi Peter,

while I feel there is good merit for cable looms, I feel IC's are the most important to keep the same. Power cords and speaker cable not so much. I will not be switching to MIT IC's. I have no provision to deal with the heavy boxes in my system and the Odin IC's are fantastic. I plan on using the MIT speaker cable for a while. If it proves to be the cable I like best, I will probably sell the Odin speaker cable.

rockitman August 30, 2014 17:15

It has been awhile since I updated my system info and pics. Latest purchases have been a United Home Audio Phase11S Reel to Reel machine w/outboard power supply.

I also upgraded my mono phono cart to a Lyra Olympos. I hope to have it installed on my 12" Graham Phantom supreme on the Airforce One TT tomorrow.

In other news I finally have stopped rolling rectifiers on my Allnic H5000 phono. My tube of choice is early 1950's JAN spec RCA 5U4G. These tubes have a plate current of 3 amps so the Allnic needs to be recent production or has had the PS resistors upgraded to handle the current. This tube far exceeds the performance of any tube I have used....5Y3, GZ 32, GZ 34 and GZ37. The GZ37 is my second favorite followed by the blue print JAN 5Y3 favored by Arnie and Albert on this site. I did a back and fourth comparo the other night with the 5Y3 and the 5U4G's. There was really no contest, the 5U4G's give a much more extended presentation with superior bloom and decay compared the the 5Y3's.

Finally, I switched my speaker cable from Odin to MIT MA-X SHD. The easiest way to describe the difference...Odin, sitting 10 rows back from the stage performance, MIT you are on the stage and enveloped by the music. Too very distinct presentations. The MIT really shines on bass extension and depth of soundstage.

Some follow up with Bybee sound purifier bullets. The long of the short, they are inconsistent sounding and tonally shift. I first noticed the issue with my phono stage...thought it was unique to that equipment. Switched them to my tape pre...sounded good for a while then the tonal shift. They mysteriously lose bass extension and over accentuate the upper mids through treble. A most unpleasant situation. I started to wonder about the speaker bullets. Bybee says once you pull them, you will want them back. I found quite the opposite. A $3,000 tweak mistake. Live and learn.

H5000 PS repair update:
I heard back from David Beetles. Apparently my diode install was not thee problem. I re-installed the 300B's backwards. I can't stand the pins on them as they are easy to mis-orient. Another lesson learned.

rockitman April 14, 2014 14:35

Owner

Hi Mribob,

I tried the RCA bullets first. I use them for my tonearm cable into my phono pre. It sounds better with them than without. There is a considerable breakin period required. When I was not listening, I played a cd on repeat through them 24/7 for about a week. The effect is hard to describe. It is really about coherence. The music flows with greater ease and the bass region seems more integrated. The same type of effect occurs with the speaker bullets. They still have a ways to go before they are fully broken in. The best way to hear their effect is to use them for awhile then pull them out. I have not pulled the speaker bullets out yet to see what things sounded like before them. I plan to do so in another week or so and will post my impressions.

rockitman April 12, 2014 19:42

Owner

Not yet. I am hoping soon.

rockitman April 11, 2014 19:49

Currently under audition are Bybee Super Effect Interconnect/Phono Bullets. I have to admit that I was skeptical. While they will need some significant burn in, what I am hearing so far is startling. There is a significant increase in bass to midrange coherence, better defined bass and an increase in extension. The sound stage width and depth has significantly grown. I am using these out of my Allnic HA3000 moving coil headamp. I wanted to try them with my moving coil inputs on the Allnic H5000 phono, but since the rca's are recessed into the back plate, the rca male does not make adequate contact since the tube after the rca is too wide. I am going to see if they can add 1/4" in length to the rca diameter tube. Based on my audition so far, I may be trying the speaker bullets.

rockitman March 27, 2014 19:19

Owner

Well I think I found my favorite tube. Mullard late 60's O getter, brown base GZ37's. Maybe it has to do with the higher current. You need to have the upgraded heavy duty diodes installed. Something I botched on my last unit. I made the cardinal sin...soldering iron not hot enough and I overheated thee circuit. With these tubes the sound erupts and expands with a voracity I have not heard with this unit before. Everything is more extended, tighter and more dynamic. I now prefer transformer input to head amp/MM input. Rectifier tubes make all the difference.

rockitman March 15, 2014 20:00

#99,

It will be a few more weeks. No specs. I would imagine they will be very similar to the Supreme, although the Elite arm tube is of a bigger diameter, different wiring and the bearing is also improved. That is all I know.

Allnic service:

All I can say is unbelievable. I screwed up my unit (mistake of a too cool soldering iron)and they are sending me out a new power supply immediately with the new heavy duty diodes already installed. Once I verify all is well, I will simply return my broken unit. I am much happier now as I will have it by end of week, versus a few weeks waiting for repair. Allnic takes great care of their customers.

rockitman March 10, 2014 00:29

WARNING!!!!!!!!!
Change diodes at your own risk. I seemingly de-soldered the stock diodes and soldered in the heavy duty diodes. All seemed well until I reassembled the unit. During reassembly, my finger touched something in the circuitry and shocked the hell out of me. The unit had been unplugged for an hour. My finger was even blistered. So I plug the unit in and the meter on the left channel doesn't even light up. The right channel did light up, but the meter was far to the right. Perhaps the meters need to be re-calibrated for the heavy duty diodes ? In any event it appears the unit needs to go in for repair. Damn !!! I received my GZ37 tubes today, so that motivated me to put in the new diodes so I could check GZ37's out. Back to the Pass XP-25...Damn again. :-(

So I tried NOS late 50's Phillips/Holland made GZ32 big bottle (shape of 300B)rectifiers last night. They have a spacious sound, but are a bit loose on the bass definition. I like the GZ34 F31 Valvo's and F32 Mullards better. The best tube so far is still the German made Tele's (Navy Tubes)from the late 60's with a bottle similar in shape to a GZ34 but is about 1/4" bigger in diameter. It also uses the full octet of 8 pins instead of the usual 5. I suspect the 3 additional pins are dummies and are there to secure the tube in the socket better than the 5 pin. Next week I should get my Mullard GZ37's to try. That will be the end of the rectifier tube test odyssey for this phono pre.

rockitman March 07, 2014 23:00

These may be a game changer. First listening session very positive. The bass & midrange seem much stronger, more slam, bolder than any GZ34 I have tried. It almost sounds like I added a well integrated sub. Get them while there hot.

I have come to the conclusion that I will probably never settle on a favorite rectifier, although this may be it. It is nice to have the option of such different sound presentations by rolling these tubes. Perhaps GZ37 will be even better ? I plan to solder in the new heavy duty resistors to handle GZ37 current this weekend, just in time for their arrival (Mullards) next week.

I received a shipment of backup tubes from Allnic, namely Kron 242's and Marconi NOS HL2K.

Rockitman,

When are you planning to demo Allnic L5000 DHT preamp?

David Beetle is trying to convince me buying one so will be very interested in your results.

I took my "Under Construction" sign down years ago so on MAINTENANCE mode now. MAINTENANCE is more expensive then initial construction just like all the public sector jobs. BIG DIG #1. LOL!

The pre is a possible consideration as long as KS can make a full tape loop option for me, rather than just tape out. I require a tape in so that I can use my parametric eq when necessary, mostly for live digital recorded music...

rockitman February 28, 2014 07:52

My latest rectifier roll has been the MULLARD GZ34 F32 OO getters (Blackburn England). I'm guessing a mid 1960's tube. This tube compared to the Phillips/Valvo F31, has a bit more slam and harder grip on the bass. The Valvo may have a little more treble extension. They are very similar in many ways to each other and the construction looks virtually identical. I expect to receive the GZ32 Tele's soon. It will be interesting to see how GZ32 compares to GZ34's.

rockitman February 28, 2014 07:49

Albert,

I don't think the fat metal bases will clear the counter sink on the H5000 chassis, meaning the pins won't go in deep enough. If you have one lying around, see if it fits. I'm guessing it won't.

Allnic 5000 DHT rectifier rolling continues. I confirmed with KS Park that GZ32 rectifiers can also be used in the units. They are 5 volt, indirect heated with a 2 amp filament current. As such I bought 4 NOS Telefunken GZ 32's made in Germany. I have still have not tested my GZ34 Mullard Blackburns since I have been so pleased with the 1958 Phillips/Valvo GZ34's.

HI Christian,

Have you had a chance to listen to the Allnic H5000 with the Philips Valvo GZ34 rectifier tubes? If so, any initial impressions?

They are the tubes for me....the entire frequency range sounds better than any other tube I have tried. While I do have some Blackburn, English made Mullards coming in F32 series, I doubt they will be as good as these 1959 F31 Phillips/Valvo's Holland made.
Tube world express still have some.

I will be considering the Pass XS Pre along with the Purity Audio Design Ultra series Tube pre. It will be a spring project. I have not ruled out the Allnic L5000 DHT preamp, especially if I can get "tape in" jacks in addition to the tape out jacks (already offered) so I can have a complete tape loop for EQ use when needed.

Hi Dev, The difference with the TS-140 is obvious. More transparency, lower noise floor (Which is already amazing) and clearer more defined low to mid bass. It is a no brainer if you want to maximize the AF1, imho. I use the HRS TechDas base on top of the TS-140. The elite arm will come in January hopefully. The 12" Graham Supreme with Koetsu Coralstone in the rear slot sounds great.

I plan to update pics and impressions of my component changes soon. I am looking forward to no more component changes. With the turntable at least, I have achieved that.

Hi 95,

It's been a while since I heard the A90 and even longer for the Shelter. I feel the Shelter Harmony is closer to the Koetsu than the A90. The A90 seems to do everything well, great air up top, sweet mids but with a bass that is a bit leaner than that of the shelter or Koetsu. The A90 is a bit more audiophile/hi-fi sounding whereas the others...still audiophile seem to be more musical to me. I will be setting up my A90 again soon, but not on a Graham, rather a Clearaudio Universal arm. Since my system has changed quite a bit since it was last mounted, I will share my impressions again on how it stacks up against my Koetsu Coralstone.

I did not think the improvement with the TechDas would be so dramatic. It's sounds more like a SOTA reel to reel machine versus a vinyl spinner. The way music erupts from a completely black and silent background is breathtaking.

Hi Dev,

I have the 7075 duraluminum platter. I may try the stainless one down the road, but they are quite costly for the experiment.
http://www.techdas.jp/analog_01.html

As far as Lamm goes, I know they are beautiful sounding...so to are my Pass XS 150's. They will leave the Lamm's in the dust when you comes to low end dynamic impact and grunt which I like for rock material. The new Lamm's are almost double the cost of the XS amps. I am truly happy with the Pass. Next up is the new phono stage on order...the Allnic h5000 DHT. I should receive it in the next couple of weeks.

rockitman September 22, 2013 18:03

The TechDas was finally setup today. Bob Graham was over to deliver my Graham Supreme 12" arm and verify my setup. All went smooth. My first impression was the dramatic drop in record surface noise, damping of pops, ticks to a far greater degree than with my Clearaudio. What followed next was an explosion of dynamic content. Music erupted...jumping off the groove like I have never heard before ...much more noticeable compared to my other table. The bass is far more articulated and extended. The density of the music fills and pressurizes the room significantly more than my other table. It really sounds much closer to tape than I would ever have imagined. This table is in another league. I will be updating my photos in the near future.

I will be ordering the H5000 Monday. It should complement the TechDas nicely.

Thanks Rockitman, I like what you wrote, and it sounds like more than a safe buy and worth the price, true? Does it compete with higher priced phono pre's?

IMO it does, save for the very best that cost 2 to 3 times as much. If I thought it was lacking in any real way, I would be using something else. That does not mean that I won't try the ARC ref 10 or the Ypsilon down the road...maybe even Lamm's new reference.

Hi Jason,

I think you will really like the XS amps. Give them a few hundred hours breakin before they are at their best. I no longer think about amps since acquiring them. They are here for the long haul.

rockitman July 08, 2013 23:23

Hi Dave_72,

The XP-25 is an excellent phono stage that has the most loading flexibility with convenience. The front dial adjustments make it very easy to change loads on the fly. There is an auto mute circuit when making the change so you can leave the volume up a bit when changing load values. The sound is excellent. Top line tube phono pre's may give you a bit more sweetness if that is your desire.

rockitman July 08, 2013 23:20

Owner

Hi Peter. The all out assault is almost over. :-) I'm keeping my X-2.2's for years to come. The pre (XS) is also on the target list but probably not till next winter. I don't want an early production unit. I will be able to run the TechDas into my same XP-25, so I may do nothing with that unless Pass develops a XS Phono.

rockitman May 07, 2013 17:46

Owner

Latest addition to the System is a Table Stable TS 140 active isolation table. I am using it under my Clearaudio Master Innovation. The improvement in sound has been nothing short of stunning.

In addition to my latest Stillpoints binge, I bought 7 LP 1's for the tops of all components and amps. I placed Ultra 5's as my new feet for my Modded Technics 1500 RTR deck. The bass became tighter and better delineated. Overall a very solid improvement for a RTR machine.

Next up, a second turntable. the TechDas AF 1. It will be a couple months before that arrives.

Rockitman,

It's hard to aim at perfection when the target is constantly moving but I would say you have been tracking it with a laser like quality. Nicely done.
Onemug

Thanks Onemug. The latest addition are Stillpoint Ultra ss isolation footers under all my main components. I need to upgrade my pics as the stereo is configured somewhat differently than pictured.

I am considering a "Table Stable" active servo controlled isolation platform for my turntable. Probably costs $11k USD so I am still chewing on the concept.

What would you say the difference is between the 2 and 3 box line preamps? And between the 1 box and 2 box phono preamps?

The main difference is that the multi box units sound better. They are more refined, dynamic and quieter. It is really as simple as that.

rockitman March 20, 2013 03:02

Hi TJF,

I am 3 days in 24/7 burn-in. These cables/networks are a revelation. I cannot see how any single wire type speaker cable can compete with what these cables offer. They are truly transformational with regard to the system sound.

rockitman March 12, 2013 13:34

Owner

So the latest change...Valhalla speaker cable is out of the system. Due to it's high inductance, it turns out it is not a good match for solid state power amps. I hear it is a great match for tubed electronics. With Valhalla my system was too lean in the mid bass region and too forward in the treble. I confirmed this by switching back to my old Siltech LS-188 speakers wires. Now the mid bass is back and the treble has backed off and is more coherent with the rest of the frequencies.

Today I ordered MIT Oracle MA-X Super HD speakers interfaces. I suspect they will elevate the sound to where it should be given my component mix.

rockitman February 22, 2013 22:29

Owner

The XA series all have a similar sonic signature. When you go up in watts so does your headroom. I had XA 100.5's previous to my XS 150's. The were more than adequate for powering my Alexandria's at 94 dB sensitivity. It's all about how efficient your speakers are and how big the room is that dictates optimal amp power selection, IMO...

rockitman February 18, 2013 02:36

Hi bigpond,

I have not heard the continuum....would love to someday. I am immensely happy with the master innovation. It is so quiet, resolving and speed accurate. I use a laser tachometer to measure speed and this table oscillates only a few hundreth's of a rpm at 33.333 or 45.000. I never heard the master reference so I cannot offer an opinion. It's a shame this table hasn't been reviewed yet.

I hope you can arrange to borrow a pure silver interconnect like the More expensive Kimber or Audioquest.

I already own Siltech Classic Anniversay 770i. They are pure silver. Very nice presentation. I'm sure their Royal Signature line is even better. I won't spend that much money on wires. It is not necessary. I like the Valhalla's better in "my" system as such the Siltech collect dust.

Christian, Now that you have had the XS in your system for a while, could you elaborate on the difference between them and your old XA100.5? Did you ever go back and forth between them or did you sell one when the other arrived?

I did not do a/b switching between the XA's and the XS. The XA went back to my dealer when the XS's were delivered. The change was obvious. Anything the XA does the XS does much better. The bass grip, midrange and treble performance excels over the XA series. The presentation is smooth and seemless and is more liquid sounding (like tubes) than the XA. The depth and width of the soundfield is significantly increased. Is it worth 4 times as much money as the XA ? Only you can decide. It was for me. I could not be happier with my amps.

Thanks for sharing your experiences Bo1972. I don't have that sound issue with Valhalla in my system. I love the tonal balance I have. The sames wires in different system "WILL" sound different. Better for some, worse for others.

rockitman February 04, 2013 19:45

Owner

It is a very good phono stage for that price point. I do recommend the ACCU+ battery power supply option. It makes a big difference in reducing noise. I still have mine, but it's boxed up. My Pass XP-25 is a superior & much more flexible phono stage as it should be for 3 times the cost of th Balance+ with Accu battery power unit.

Hi Peter,

I think it's more than just moving up in power. My speakers are 95 db sensitivity. The XA 100 bias meters barely moved. I will post more impressions and pics over the weekend. I could easily lived happily ever after with the xa's until I heard the xs's.

rockitman August 31, 2012 15:46

The XS-150's are finally in place. So far, the sound has been glorious. They are big and heavy and give off quite a bit of heat. The soundstage depth, scale, imaging, transient attack and note decay are excellent. They are very musical and natural sounding. You would think you are listening to a class A tube rig but with the power and bass grip only SS can deliver. Are they worth 4 times the price of the XA100.5's ? For me, yes!!! TheXA series of amps don't reach the level of refinement that the XS series do. I'm sure I will have more impressions when I get more listening time.

Two pairs, 13 feet each with Cardas Rhodium plated XLR's. They sound excellent and hold their own with my Nordost Valhalla, Tyr and Siltech 770i cables I use on source components.

Very, very nice system. Can you compare and contrast your reel-to-reel machines? Also, how do you like your Adona racks? Do they provide good isolation?

I still have a Techincs 1500 deck with a pro Nortronics 2 track repro head that is wired out directly to an outboard tape preamp (King/Cello). The consumer playbck electronics are not very good, so that is why it is done this way. The Studer A810's are stock. They sound very good and have a very robust dynamic sound about them. For ultimate fidelity, the Technics with the outboard preamp wins by a bit over the Studer. The tape handling isn't as good. One fast forward/rewind speed...full out. With the Studer you can slow rewind way down to reduce tape shed. So I use them for all rewinding.

The Adona racks are great. Very well built and solid. I use them on a poured concrete floor...My basement that is carpeted.

Hi Rockitman, How is the Graham compared to the Clearaudio Tonearm. Kind Regards Bigpond

The Graham Supreme beat the Universal in both sound quality and VTA adjustment precision. The Graham's spirit bubble level on the pivot tower makes all the difference. Getting a base VTA (perfectly level) with the Universal is hit and miss...with the Graham, I get it right for every record I play within 5 seconds. I fine tune, if necessary by ear from the reference level position established by the Graham bubble level. I would buy a Graham again over virtually any pivoted arm available.

I have recently delved into reel to reel after gaining access to 15 ips dubs of some studio master safety dubs. I have 3 machines now. Technic's 1500 with a Nortronics 1/2 track head wired out to my tape preamp (King/Cello), a Otari MTR-10 with it's repro head wired out and a stock Otari MX 5050 that I am keeping stock. In my opinion, RTR tape is the top of the heap sound quality wise as long as the tape source sound quality is there (15 ips master safety dubs, ect.). My turntable still beats quite handily any 7 1/2 ips pre-recorded tapes and as such, I have stopped wasting my time and money purchasing them at ridiculous prices on ebay.

With the tonearm base which I bought from Clearaudio the tone arm is sitting much too low.

Thanks vm in advance and a happy new year

Helmut

Hello Helmut,

I purchased my tonearm arm board via Musical Surroundings (Clear Audio & Graham US Distributor) who then did the deal for payment through a retailer. Are you using a clearaudio innovation table ? If so, the standard Graham compatible arm bopard is the same thicknesss as the standard clearaudio arm compatible board. Height is determined by the pod height that the arm board affixes too. Clearaudio can aslo provide various arm board pod heights. Speak to Joe at Musical Surroundings. He is very accomodating.

^^^ Hi Peter,

I have not owned the XP-20 or XP-15. Previous pre was a Levinson No.380S. The XP-30 and XP-25 are staying. I'm in love with the XP-30. Huge glorious sound stage, articulate, airy and detailed, yet very musically involving. The XP-25 is just a great all around phono section. Very extended throughout the frequency range and not analytical/cool sounding. I would say it leans a bit on the warm side of neutral.

Preamp Time.:-) When I thought I would stick with Pass ( I may still ), I am also considering the following. Any advice/experiences from the "All Out Assaulters" would be appreciated based on my system components:

Pass Labs XP-30 (I can audition this) $16,500
Spectral DMC-30SS SERIES 2 $10,000
Audio Research Reference Anniversary $24,995
Lamm Model L2 Reference $13,690
DarTZeel NHB-18NS $23,250

Was looking at VTL, but I hear their customer service sucks. That I don't need in a reference preamp.

rockitman November 23, 2011 15:30

Owner

The final missing piece is a preamp upgrade. As much as I love my ML 380S, I don't think is can be listed as a reference component anymore given the advances in technology since the 380S.

My first choice and to better maintain synergy with my system is the Pass Labs new reference, the XP-30 3 chassis preamp. I would be interested in any impressions if anyone has been lucky enough to hear it. I am also interested in peoples opinions on the 380S and how it might compare to the XP-30 or even the previous Pass reference, the XP-20. The preamp will be the last major item addressed on my all out assault other than analog carts and arms.

Making room for another rack, I purchased Siltech Classic G7 series, 3 meter xlr interconnects so that I could move my mono block amps to the outside of my speakers to make room for a second Adona Zero GXT rack (slightly shorter) to suopport my new turntable that arrives towards the end of December (Clearaudio Master Innovation). In addition to that, I purchased 2 more PS Audio Power Plant Premier power regerators so that each amp has it's own dedicated clean, stable power. That in itself made a signicant contribution in sound quality by opening the amps up even more. The bass is more effortless, tight and the soundstage is wider and deeper. Updated pics to follow once the rack arrives and is set up.

I doubt complete rebuilt option: A90 was a limited edition, discontinued for soon a year ago, thus spares for complete rebuilt not available. We used to say stylus life time is in the range 600-1000 hours without degradation of performance, thus (hypothetically) complete rebuilt could be an issue after a number of years.

So I secured an Ortofon MC A90 cart with very few hours last night. It will need to be broken in... not a bad thing as it means I have many hours of listening pleasure ahead before stylus replacement. I will be giving my Shelter Harmony a rest and will give my comparo of both down the road. Still no pics yet of my system, but they will be fourthcoming when I make the time to take them.

I am curious what load impedance owner's of this cart like ? 10, 50, 100 ohms ? I probably won't get it in my possession until early next week. TIA
