In situations. Me spinal column nearly exited me skin when I picked it up ! It weighs more than I do ffs ! And look at the size of that knob , as the actress said to the bishop. . If the sound is as good as the built quality I'll be well happy..  |

First thing I notice ...there doesn't seem to be a Standby option ?
It's on or Off.
Isn't that unusual ?

Oh. Ok.
We , I didn't post earlier becaus I was totally underwhelmed.
It looks great but the little Cyrus blows its titty's off !
I'll play it all night and see.
The time controls are a joke. I didn't intend to user them but if I try them it simply distorts everything in a quite horrible fashion. Maybe it'll be useful for the telly.
Yours...currently unimpressed...Engy.

Gone back to it and put the phono plugs into the 'recorder' inputs.
An old favourite trick.
It instantly went into a different league.
Now I'm smiling.
The built in phono stage is now being used for the SL1210. It's proving better than the old cheap MF XLP phono amp.
It's definitely changed a lot in three hours.
Im glad because I was a bit cheesed off. Using the recordeer inputs has lifted it up to the Cyrus standard with possibly more space around the 8 instruments Slipknot use on Subliminal Verses.
Don't knock 'the knot' They are a tough test for any system.

Probably bypasses the tone controls and input selection switches and circuitry, fingers crossed it works out well for you.

Yeah it does. But I thought that the 'direct' button would do that.
Im playing it through the Technics now and things are just getting better by the hour.
The Technics and the denon 110 have never sounded this good.

Ther Strokes . Is this it. Has some quite harsh bits on the LP production. Think OC9 ML2 but not as painful. The new amp doesn't paper over them but it does control them enough to makes it an even greater rekkid.

Cheers.
With the Cyrus I had to occasionally turn it down as it could be a little strident. This isn't. Whether or not that could equate to a shortcoming in the high frequencies I can only tell after a few days I reckon. But it's deffo enjoyable. Tons of grunt now it's starting to sing. I don't think anyone could dislike it hifi wise. One thing I am impressed with is the soundstage width . It sounds like it's far wider than the speakers. Clarity and instrument separation is really coming on now.
It just sounds all more large scale ?
Is that a good audio term ?
