IMO Audio Technica M50 may suit your genres. Slightly above your budget only.

Wow, yours is one super-souped up version now!

But is there a lot of DIY work involved, esp for the bearing?

Can I confirm who carries Rega & Pro-ject in SG?

I searched:

Rega - Asia Sound @ Adelphi

Pro-ject - House of Turntables somewhere in AMK (I thought its available in Norman Audio @ Adelphi?)

I believe these 2 brands are the usual suspects for entry-level TTs?

Thanks.

BTW the HD25-1 ii is available in SG?

How about a Sony MDR-V7506?

Its way below your budget, for DJ/monitoring use, foldable, closed, rugged.

if you do a search on ebay, the prices are around S$30 with free shipping from China & HK. likely fakes.

Hi

I'm thinking of selling some used CDs locally. If I am to post it, what type of packaging should I use & where can I obtain them? Singpost?

Should it be those cardboard type that can fit exactly 1 CD (or any other number)?

Because I think those normal envelopes (with bubble wrap on the inside) is still not crack proof enough.

Thks

BTW What record clamp are you using on the technics?

Thanks.

I am using W3 but had been fiddling with the various tips provided in the box. Even bought Shure Olives to try. I mainly use the provided dark grey tips (med) & Olives (small) due to better fit. Tried the grey Complys too. Somehow, when using any of the above tips, I tend to always re-adjust them while listening - to make a better seal (when I tilt my head up, sometimes the seal gets broken). Therefore I am considering whether the UM56 tips will solve this - comfort & seal. And whether it can last.

Wow, excellent variety of photos!

Very delicious, and I'm not referring to the food!

Look forward to more reviews from the meet.

Thanks.

BUMP. Its looking for a new owner!

Very interesting. Manufacturers all going towards hi-end now. With Senn, Ultrasone & now Beyer.

I got a spot spot for Beyer. Go Team Beyer!

It was bought from authorised distributor in Japan with receipt. Not sure about international warranty though. But brand new. Best price secures.

Still avail. Price is neg.

FYI XCANv8p uses a pair of E88CC (6922) dual triode tubes.

How about the Musical Fidelity XCANV8P?

Hi jojo-b2, you have the Sony MDR-CD900ST. Can it be folded?

Like this:

http://page8.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/h127228001

Its the model with non-coil cable with 1/4" plug.

I read that V7 cannot be folded but the V6 can.

Thanks.

Oh you are mistaken. Tacima is an extension/distribution strip.

I was refering to just a headphone cable for extension.

Thks anyway!

A reply to my own question.

FYI for those looking for an extension cord.

The choices recommended were:

Belden 1192A (star quad)

Canare L-4E (star quad series)

Canare L-2 (twisted pair series)

Above are basically microphone cables & flexible enough.

Using Neutrik 1/4" connectors.

RSA amps are perfect with denons. ray's amps are very aggressively forward in nature and will give the denons a lovely boost in the mids. either the hornets or toma will be perfect. due to the low impedance of the denons, using a desktop amp will most likely give u gain problems. thus a small portable amp will do the trick.

pls if you could elaborate on the gain problems (for D2000 & any low impedance cans) if used if desktop amps?

I've seen this at Jaben before.

W5000

DT880

D5000

RS2

HD650

PRO750

Beyer, Senn & Denon were its top 3.

thks. well, be it connector or cord, the current extension cord is the problem.

anyways, web searches came up with canare star quad cables as an alternative.

Thinking of buying or making a 2m 1/4" extension cord. Any recommendations? My stock cord somehow giving me problems like one-sided listening when I move it.
