    Saw the Ennio Morricone records. Love those - I've seen each of his Western movies - there ain't a better movie sound track than the one in Once Upon a Time in the West! BTW, I've just added a few components to my stereo system. Wanna see a photo?

    Very cool Guido! Long ago I could’ve accepted the clutter, and individualist kit that you portray. I just returned to this hobby before the world went mad four years ago after a 25 year. hiatus. I was an analog guy when i started and that’s what I prefer. I do have a cd transport and have substituted cassette for R2R, something I always wanted. ✌️ keep up the good work!

      Good for you 🎉. 👍 when I was your age I would have been jealous of what you have as I didn't have much when I was 18 (which by the way was in the 1990s when analog wasn't cool) what I did have was an old Panasonic record player/receiver that was a hand me down from my Grandpa's old garage as well as a 1990s era Sony boombox cd/cassette deck. Remember it's about the music. Of course as I got older and started making more money 💰 I slowly upgraded my system. Just remember it's all about our love for music which is analog in nature ❤.

    * Cool Room with some nice materials and rocks soft surfaces. The sound waves loving!
    * Australian houses in QLD specially are acoustically horrible! Brick veneer we call them. "300mm thick" = 1 layer of bricks (100mm) followed by air gap nad plasterboard inside. 2.7m ceilings. In some cases 2.4m. Plenty of glass and assymetrical shapes. That means high background noise and multiple frequency resonant spikes. Very hard to treat.
    * My father used to be in HIFI Club in Czechoslovakia and we used to have 1 turntable, 1 Amp and 2 self made speakers (1m tall), His friend also had his system but he was never able to achieve quality my father (we) had the privillage to enjoy (as a kid). For decades I always tought it was the HIFI system. Only recently I have realised it was the room that has made all the difference. Thick solid brick walls, correct ratio of room dimensions, bookshelves, carpet and symmetricity . . .

    Sad you don’t have the Class A Luxman 590 AXII any more, I picked one up after your review.
    Saw many and read several reviews on it before I took the plunge. Had gone down the 200 watt McIntosh road for a few years but got tired of the sound. The Luxman even after 6 months of just about daily use is my forever amplifier. Been into audio for over 40 years. The relaxed tube like sound is what my ears crave at this point. 🙏

    • @anadialog
      @anadialog  Год назад

      The Luxman was and is great! I can confirm that, but tube amps when properly matched with speakers and preamp are just in another league and I am saying this after Class A Pass labs, Accuphase, Hegel, 2 Luxman etc. In fact, don't make the mistake to mix a 1958 MC30 30watts with the current 200watts monsters of McIntosh.

    How do you connect your Reel2Reel machines to your amp?

    • @anadialog
      @anadialog  11 месяцев назад +1

      The machines have an integrated preamp so you can connect them directly to the amplifier. They usually use balanced connections, meaning XLR so if your amp does not have that kind of inputs you will need an xlr to rca adapter per channel or dedicated xlr-rca cables.

    • @seedney
      @seedney 11 месяцев назад

      @@anadialog What about sound quality, when using that xlr-rca cable? basically balanced straight to unbalanced without any "in between" is ok? I doesn't have any XLR in my system, so I'm scared of doing something wrong. Output Voltages are similar as AUX input in amps?

Best wishes to all!

      I think the real question is IF I service them each year and the answer is no. No need! When a problem arises I go to service otherwise I can do the rest. No problem with my Telefunken, he is away enough from the magnets of the speakers.

    Gear wise it is amazing!!! However I think it is time to move away the disques, have a hifi grade custom rack made and real acoustic difuseurs. Speakers should be more in the room... and no tube monoblocks on speakers even on the anti vibration blocks.
    I am sure you know that but it is a bit sad because I think you might only get 50% of what this system can do.
    At the same time life is about compromises... but not for an audiophile 😁

      Well, I forgot to mention but it is a Hi-Fi grade rack. All wallnut and not bolts with spikes built by Guizu. The Altec have blew my GolderEar Triton Reference out of the water and most systems I have heard around at fairs and friend's houses. We tend to think old cannot compete with modern equipment but this is absolutely not the case, just as for the McIntosh, which before were on the floor, I know I should move them and I will but for now I don't have more room and I DO haev a wife ;-)

    • @anadialog
      @anadialog  Месяц назад

      Thanks but I think you are making a wrong assessment of me and my channel. Make some suggestions just saying upgrade it seems a little reductive. The ALTEC 19 ARE an upgrade. I am coming from a pair of GooderEar Triton Reference and I also have a pair of Quad ESL-15. The ALTEC are truly outstanding much much better than many modern projects. My Audiaflight phono preamp is a solid state jewel now substituted by a Luxman EQ500. Amps are changing all the time but I have a magical combination of 300B or 2A3 with Tango transformers. Sonics that are not achievable not even by high end beast like the recent GaNFET Audio I have reviewed. My solid state reference is instead a hybrid V-FET Sony TAN-7B. But also the McIntosh MC30 that you see here are very good and by saying to upgrade even these I start doubting about your 40 years of experience since they are the reference for many as Steve Hoffman. 😉
