  • Re: Sound Smith SMMC 20CL

    It is noted that below 22 degrees, the CL tends to lose top end and at 19 degrees with too high a capacitance (you need to think arm as well as amplifier) the frequency response can dip by as much as 10 dB.

    Don't think much of their 20CL! My ones measure better! Even Hi-Fi choice had a better one than that! I attach the review!

  • Re: User Guides?

    What would make it easier? Do you think a link in each product page? At present, you can choose to navigate in the products or in the manuals. I confess that some products are tricky to find but that will be my odd filing systems!

  • Re: What is your favorite vintage B&O product?

    I agree! However when you go to the Struer museum, you will see the Beocord 6000 and it is quite disappointing in the flesh! It really is a mock up with no working mechanism at all. I had a 1600 for a while - looks great but not nearly as good a deck as the 2400.

    Just use the + & - connections - the pin and spade and ignore the other connection. A 2 pin din to bare wire is the wire you need - B&O still sell these with a nice moulded plug if you want an original.

  • Re: Why all countries have different plugs and not much hope for change

    It was certainly an interesting house! The original wiring was all laid out under the floor boards in lead pipes which ran alongside the lead gas pipes and all were laid out a bit like railway lines. In addition the bell pushes for the servants quarters (no longer used in my time!) also ran along side by side. Every now and then, my father would pull

    I think the new and old cartridges appeal to different people. If comparing to loudspeakers, the SoundSmith cartridges are the ALT type with a bright balance, quite strident even but lots of perceived detail. The B&O cartridges are less in your face but I find the detail there but in an easier to listen way - think Uniphase! It is a little like

  • Re: Why all countries have different plugs and not much hope for change

    Nice article! The discussion below is amusing as well! All countries think either their system is by far the best and all other countries are mad or despair at the multiple standards! I do remember growing up and our house had new square three pin plugs, older round three pin plugs (two sizes!) two pin plugs and gas points, all in the space of a few

  • Re: Beovision 7 - 55"

    The big advantage will be different areas of the screen can have different back lighting. This allows for deeper blacks and better contrast. The edge LED system does not allow this but both methods review well and seem an improvement over the fluorescent tubes seen in most LCD sets.
