I’m fancying this. Mainly as Helix seem to pretty much stoped doing any Bass specific updates, seems like much more bass stuff on Boss model. Very tempted. But just finally booked a holiday.

Read an interview with Geezor a few weeks ago and allegedly a Head of doom pedal/ preamp comi g out soon. Anybody else heard this.

British Sea Power. Not sure any navel engagements where ever undertaken. And despite an edgy name, they are a bit lame, sound like “Colon” from the fast shows Indie club

I’m really digging the Saint, serious Gas, yes they are nir original design or reinventing the wheel but they sound great, quality components and Ashdowns own custom Pick ups.

Denon D-M41DAB Aux in no ground Turntable, which as a built in preamp which has a ground connector, but not used this as now hum or anything https://www.audio-technica.com/en-gb/turntables/best-for/step-up-models/at-lp120xusb

Shop still shut due to covid collection only, but they are really helpfull and have a good returns policy.

Its a made field (lol) if you are out of the game for a bit, I know my bass rig, amp, power amp/powered cab modeller preamp set up better than just plugging in a turntable to a hifi. Loving the new rig though, better than my old turntable into my old Philips Hifi.

cheers, yes the Denon is good, the sound thing is only really a problem when switching from turntable to anything else you forget to drop the volume and boom, going to try the Pro jet box, inexpensive and if it boosts by just 25-30% that should bring it more in line don't think i will get a full unity gain without spending £000's and for a £300 hifi and £200 turntable would be silly money.

its set at Line, at Phono sound almost non existent.

cheers worth noting, it's always a toss up between cost and benefit. Bit Like a preamp or cough, compressor on a Bass rig.

cheers so out of touch with the hifi scene, have good local indpependent Hifi shop might just seek there advice, when you are getting above £100 may just accept that have to adjust volume, as I said sound quality is superb just a lot quieter

ouch, was looking at something £50-£80 range. but did find this, which has solid enough reviews. https://www.audioaffair.co.uk/pro-ject-phono-box-mm-phono-stage

Think the what I am looking for is preamp, anyone now what's good.

Don't know of there is a dedicated HiFi section anywhere. but could not find anything. After some advice. Just purchased both a new Denon Hifi and direct drift Audio Technica Turntable. Both sound amazing in my 4m x 4m living room with a noice set of Wharfdale Diamond speakers. Only issue is switching from streaming, CD, DAB to Phono Vinyl is a massive drop in volume and I have to crank the volume up a fare bit (turntable set to Line which is loudest). There is no drop in sound quality at all, no extra hum or buzz or anything, just have to boost volume from around 20-24 to 30-36 (it goes to 50) maxed out) I do like it loud but not stupidly and if I do there is plenty in the tank hit 40 on volume and its very load. So does anyone know how to boost the signal from the turntable , just to get it more unity with other settings, can you get boosters for this type of thing, or just by some better quality RCA cables would that make a difference over the std ones that came with the Turntable. Any advice would be appreciated.

This ^ I hate went they just crank it up, the equivalent of sitting in a car reving the engine, when what you want to know is what's the pick up like in 4th from 30-50mph

Any thing by No Doubt or Gwen Steffani. Awful awful artist/band utter crap on any level.

Brian Downey only original member who played on every recording along with Phil founded the band together.
