Many years ago at a high-end show, the 2 turntables that stood out to me were this one and Audionote(from England) TT2. There were many more turntables there, some very expensive. Based on this recording, I'd pick the Rosewood over the Ortofon, but of course it's a different arm and amp.
Hi Harry, thank you for sharing, That sounds amazing I’ve heard the same bit of music through a lot of systems I’m streaming it through a cheap device but I do have a very expensive handbuilt pair of transmission line speaker cabinets which seem to come to life when I listen to this sort of music, Listen to some more of your music at some point, Phil from the moulin France.
But typically a horn. No depth in the presentation. If those are the best speakers you‘ve ever heard … you definitely should go out and listen to a fewmore speakers!
@@bikemike1118 Sound is highly subjective. Dynamics and un-boxy presentation is what's important to me. BTW I was in the industry for a decade and heard some of the best systems available.
@@gweflj With horns, going from low volume sounds to high volume sounds approximates real life-compared to direct radiator speakers. In that way, we can suspend our disbelief much easier.
Oh what a beautyful system, are you still in love with youre speakers? I drive some Marten‘ s with a Luxman 509 , but my heart still beats for Tubes in combination with the right speakers🙂. And my last question, are the other songs on the vinyl at the same level like this song……? Have a nice weekend.
Hello Andre, thanks for the Feedback. The devices stand on bases from Acapella Audio Arts. The Line Filter stands on a base of Bfly Audio. Best regards Harry
Yes thanks, that's the standard Rosewood Singnature. A very nice system, but now I listen to an Ortofon SPU Classic on the 12" tonearm from Thomas Schick. Best regards Harry
@@bikemike1118 Music reproduction should be about being there-not for about the nicest sound. It's for the suspension of disbelief. I find the going from low to high volume (i.e. horn speakers generally) mimics real life to me.
@@mmakshak you’re right. And therefore reproducing especially DYNAMICS is essential… But exactly in this regard the LP (or how fans call it: vinyl) is remarkably inferior to e.g. the CD which has a 40 (!) % higher dynamic range! A well recorded CD on a great player let’s even a ‚nice‘ Platine Verdier look as what it actually is: 75 year old mechanical tech, honored for the fascinating movement (rotation) it dies right before our very eyes and it’s „understandable“ principle…
@@bikemike1118 I got one for you, bikemike. Listen to good vinyl(pre-digital-1981 or earlier, generally) where the singer(e.g. Van Morrison, etc.) gets emotional. With analog, you get emotional too. Now listen to digital where you can tell the singer is emotional. Do you get emotional listening to this? Quit believing the hype, and start listening to what you enjoy(i.e. turn off your judgmental brain-your conscious mind, and start listening with your subconscious mind-your emotions.)
Here's an example of Van Morrison's(and his band's) emotion coming through on the imperfection of analog(btw, many companies start with analog tape-not digital): This is on RU-vid(use at least 720p resolution): Van Morrison Invocation of the Protector of Angels. I suggest "Angelou", but "Wavelength", "Troubadour's", "Summertime in England" are good, as are others. Unless you think digital actually improved on this outdated technology(which is impossible, btw), I'd like you to show me what digital has the emotion coming through as much as this does.
