Vinyl, LP 's have a different sound. That is the best part of Vinyl that everything is manuell. It is a passion, not for everyone. You can taste the music of Vinyl, it is a hobby . You can feel the music in different way. Love Vinyl ❤.
@@doodahdavesrecords4319 Yes, definitely. It sounds great. This is the oldest Project Carbon, it has a metal plate as a standard. This metal plate needs to be thrown away to the garage and replace to acrylic plate. The sound improvement is huge. Same with the mat , the one supplied with the turntable was rubber mat, replacing it to cork&rubber mat improves the sound too.
@@casperjensen1769 Good question. Currently I have standard cables in the wall, but I plan to add a separate power line from the main power board to the system. Still did not decided which cables I’ll use for this. Since the power cables outside the wall had such a big effect , I can only wonder how huge will be the effect of a separate power line. Yes it sounds crazy but hi-fi power cables works, and the effect is much bigger than I expected.
@@igaldins what about the cable that is out in the ground, you also have to replace it all the way to the power plant, it will be expensive. Have you measured the cables, what is the difference vs the cables that came with your equipment.
@@casperjensen1769 I don’t see the contradiction. I use a hi fi power cable and sound is better, why should I worry about the cable to the power plant? You know it is impossible to upgrade. Please explain. I could see your sarcasm in the first question. Try it yourself, you will be surprised.
@@christophermarvin85 Hi, surely I cleaned the ground contact on the turntable, I connected it to the ground on my amp. In addition I made an experiment and connected the ground to the ground in the wall socket. Still the turntable could not compete with digital if I’m talking about silence on the quiet parts of the song. So I couldn’t say that vinyl was absolutely better sound wise.
@@78sound I have 3 outlets in my room, the one that is far away from any other electronics sounds best (yes I know it sounds stupid but I can hear that) I assume that separate wire from the main power box of my house would make a big difference.
i love vinyl but recently i find myself buying more cd's then ever... i find cd's more convenient and easy to use. sometimes ijust want to listen to music without all the cleaning and the preparation. enjoy the music.
Happy you found something u enjoy after selling the records and player. Ironically where I live it's a LOT cheaper & easier to listen to, buy & enjoy records and CDs as opposed to Tidal 😂
I love the idea of vinyl. I bought a turntable to listen to my parent’s old records. It sounds good but I’m going to stick with streaming. I personally hate cleaning records and starting a record collection in this era is extremely expensive. Enjoy the music 👍
My guy, allow me to explain that there has been a very open challenge with a prize of 1 million dollars if someone can reliably hear cable differences in a blind test. This bounty is of great proportion for something that people claim to be able to do so easily all the time... yet this challenge has never been completed to prize winning level. Why? Why is it there are thousand dollar cables.. even ten and 20 and even more priced cables... and all of them being so costly that surely the makers of these cables would love to prove their product is the best because they have the ability to win a million dollars with them... why dont they? Why do they pass up this challenge and not win 1 million dollars and prove the skeptics wrong? Save your money for things that can easily be proven. Also, if you are not A/B testing the cables (blinded with someone else making the switch) then there is no way you would really tell a difference. Our audio memory abilities are not very good even if you have exceptional hearing... you will not be able to accurately tell any differences if it takes more than simply switching immediately. We have known this about hearing for a long time. I have some decent cables, and by decent I mean I buy sturdy cables that will last while knowing they do not enhance the sound compared to cheaper cables. I prefer balanced if it is an option because I dont want the chance of electrical pollution to be a thing.
@@igaldins Dyn Focus 110 here on a AS2200, looking to upgrade to S40 or take the plunge to 20i dunno yet. It's however for near field listening in a desktop setup :) Overkill I know. Therefore your other vid on low volume listening was also helpful
@@forstfodd Im not sure the SP40 are good for near field. Not sure the AS2200 will drive the 20i with good results. 20i are not easy to drive with sufficient dynamics.
Sad that streaming far worse than vinyl. hope - Your USB cable may not good. your streaming playback may not good. your network may full of jitter, and a lot noise in the network. you network quality may not health - too many factors.
Wish to know how louder does it sound in reality? Are you in India Mumbai? I am getting negative feedbacks about McIntosh Brand and no one is really recommending me,,,? Does it have Dirac Live? I understand, this is tube Amplifier and I play it loudly, the Vacum Tubes will burst.. This is the explaination I got from the dealer...:) Not sure.. McIntosh MA252 vs Arcam SA30 vs NAD M10V2
Very loud No Any manufacturer has supporters and haters. No Dirac No tubes in my amp McIntosh has power guard system, no risk for amp or speakers at loud volume. Never heard those other amps..
Elegant simplicity, a beautiful combination of vintage and modern for excellent sound. While I love full blown systems, there is a lot to be said for a classic integrated and a set of high end monitors... the irreducible minimum. Nicely done.
Do you have one of those DACs? So what is it good for? What is your other system component? Thx P.S I compared this dac to schiit bifrost multibit, schiit modius ESS ES9028, built in Mcintosh DAC, ifi neo stream built in dac. I didn’t noticed the LAB12 is oriented to play well only with specific music type 😁 I even compared it to my turntable. Nope, still did not hear that LAB12 is oriented to play better on specific genre.
Pasado un año de este vídeo, que opinas de emparejar el Yamaha con las dynaudio, tengo el mismo amplificador y quiero comprar las forty, pero mis dudas si las movera bien.
gotta be the best sounding bad sounding amp ive heard yet i dont understand how or why yamaha has always managed to make such big heavy lifeless amps when the best amps are always so minimal its almost like they arent even engineering for sound quality but for theoretical speculative sound quality based on redundant “audiophile” designs that have always proven to be top tier midfi at best
Thanks for your opinion. I can say that this AS-1200 amp sounds fantastic! I really loved its sound and still miss it sometimes. And the build quality is among the best of them all, and it looks stunningly beautiful 😍
