Cincinnati, OH, any audiophiles?

nstigator: did you listen to the alexandras or sophias or both. i didn't like the sophias with the naim equipment either. as for vinyl, i have bought 2 turntables from them over the course of the last 4 years. not trying to change your mind, just get a little more info.

forgive my mistake guys, those were not alexandrias, but sashas i was commenting on. i looked at the website and realized my mistake.

Went by Audible Elegance. Wilson's were great. Great electronics pushing them.

I was up there about a week ago as well. The Sashas paired with the McIntosh gear was pretty remarkable. A couple of friends have remarked that the Mac gear should not be underestimated. Also the cut of music they picked was well recorded and had some influence on me.

The Sophias with the Naim gear was another story. But in my opinion is was more the room than the gear. One could ponder if the gear is a good match but I noticed the room was exceptionally live and no system would do well in that environment.

It is me again,

I could use some help with my Thorens TD-145 table/Rega RB300 arm . . . it has a Doug Olsen designed plinth and I have hard wired Cardas tonearm cable to the rca's recently. Now I can not get it to track properly. I would like to have it professionally set-up using my Benz Ace cartridge because apperently I can not do it on my own:) I am concerned that re-wiring the arm has messed something up. It worked fine (before my upgrade!) with the stock DIN cable from Rega.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
