| Phono stage comparisons Darlington Labs MP8. MC and MM capable Internal EQ. Multiple settings accommodate any cartridge. Dead quiet and very musical. | |
| Gustard R26 vs hi end streamer I had the Gustard R26. It sounded great but not better than the Dac Streamer in the Eversolo A8. Sold my R26 and haven't looked back. | |
| Pre amp recommendations I have the Eversolo A8 and use all the features. Streamer replaced my WIIM pro. Preamp is great. XLR out to my amp as well. I would seriously look at the new A10 which will equal any HiFi Rose model. | |
| Streamer recommendations Eversolo A8. Love all the features. I really like the ARC in which greatly improves youtube video performances. Sounds great as a preamp. Replaced my tube pre. Ripped all my cds to the internal SSD. Couldn't be happier. | |

| CLAYTON SHAW - CALADAN - JULY SHIPMENT LIST Just an fyi... I canceled my Caladan order and was promptly refunded the total amount to my credit card in a matter of a few days. I just couldn't stand the extended delivery timeline suspense, no updates, etc. Still looking for my next speaker... | |

| New Cartridge advice I ended up buying a Denon 301MKII with a Denon head shell. The combined weight of the head shell and cart is about 15-16 grams which falls into the sweet spot for the S arm, (11-20 grams including head shell. spacers, and screws.) I plan to set my... | |
| New Cartridge advice @porchlight1 I'm loving my Linn Nexus speakers. I originally bought them new in 89 for $1100 I think. They demoed with Linn cd player and turntable at the time. Had an A/B switch so you could compare. They played Sheffield Labs James Newton Howard... | |
| New Cartridge advice @markmoskow My Denon Dl-62 has both the straight and s-curved tonearms. Which would give better results with the Denon 301MK2? In the manual, it looks like the straight arm is for lighter carts. I do like the head shell mounting system on the S ... | |
| New Cartridge advice @markmoskow Thank you for the specific information on what works with the Denon tables.. That's exactly the type of information I was looking for. Thanks to that responded. Has anyone tried the Hana SL with a similar model Denon? | |
| Eversolo DMP 8 audition going poorly... My own experience with the A8 has been great. To improve your streaming experience, I recommend upgrading your internet connection by using a product like the Ifi galvanic isolator between your router and your A8. I also use a Puron AC Power Condi... | |
| Vibration dampening I am using a product like this under my Hsu sub: Aurelex SubDude II. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/969016-REG/auralex_subdude_ii_subwoofer_isolation.html?ap=y&smp=y&msclkid=cdd589d9277412c4410def41335905eb Works well and defini... | |
| Looking for phono preamp advice in the $1000 - $1600 range Check out the Darlington Labs MP8B. It will work with low output moving coils and has an upgraded power supply. I have the MP7 which sounds great with my moving magnet pickups. It seems to be customizable for any coil and setup you have. Of course... |
