Re: Richard Dunn - what a nice handsome young man

Why am I being invited to join in with an ego boosting session? Have you actually bothered to read all of this thread Biggy? Perhaps if you did, you'd like to rethink your comment about this being anywhere near an ego boosting session or Doc lovefest. :naughty: The thing is Biggy, many of the peopl...

Re: NVA Phono2 phono stage review

That Nak. must have a very controlled bass since I thought using the Phono 2 gave me a much more controlled and deeper bass than I've been used to. The speaker used go deep, but are a touch flabby in the bass. I am presuming from listening to the two TT we used, the Toshiba showed this slight flabb...

Re: MC Phono Stage Bake-off

I will let that stand as one ad hominem to balance mine, your reply is very intelligent and lucid, isn't it. Does it answer my opinion, no. AND I can assure it is many other peoples opinion as well that have expressed to me in conversation since the debacle of your involvement in the Bake-Offs, bot...

Re: MC Phono Stage Bake-off

Well maybe it will make you think before you open your mouth or keyboard, perhaps think more before you post, or become a shill for someone, or say things to try and lead opinion from a severely lacking of knowledge position. You need to learn and listen not spout - at the moment you have Marco pro...

Re: MC Phono Stage Bake-off

Listening to words out of context with an understanding that seems to twist and misinterpret things as normality, then you know why you are wrong. It was two cancer diagnosed people doing the doctors waiting room comparisons of symptoms. BOTH of those people are NVD (no visible disease) but both ke...

Re: MC Phono Stage Bake-off

I would never buy anything on the strength of a review, unless it was a reviewer whos opinions I respected. I would still need to audition or have a return option. A demonstration of the LP12 in the distant past convinced me of this. You might be right but that's the beauty of eBay etc. I can gain ...
