| Schroeder Model 2 I, too, heard a Schroeder2 and loved it. It was beyond my budget, though, and I was forced to pass. Know you will contiune to enjoy that arm. | |
| Album which you have listened to most? Only three? No promises! :-) You ask for LPs that engender an emotional; response and I could list a hundred. How about three from each of several separate categories? Even at that it is damn hard and I will leave out many depends on the mood as... | |
| Is there a statistics of ... BRANDS only, no models. I suspect that none of mine will even rank in the top ten, but it sure do sound good!(1) Source: analog,(table/arm/cartridge)- Nottingham/Origin Live/Shelter; digital - Sony; tuner - vintage Sony with superb Don Scott mods(... | |
| Awesome LP finds..at least for me For those that do enjoy threads of this ilk, there about five posted per day on the AA site. | |

| ZYX RS series cartridges? I've heard the upper end and they are fabulous. Would also have interest in hearig how the pickups you mention perform. | |
| Record-playing Rituals? I will admit to clicking my heels and always use the Zerostat between the clicks to negate static buildup from my carpeted floor after having "shot" the LP. | |
| Poco "Legend" half-speed MFSL vinyl I, too, largely prefer my original pressing "Legend" to the MFSL that I later sold. In general, I find that MFSL LP's do not measure up to first pressings of the same LP, but there are exceptions (Little Feat's "Waiting for Columbus among them). I... | |
| Back into vinyl - part 1 To each his or her own with respect to the path taken, as long as the destination is enjoyable music. | |
| How Much To Rival Good Digital Playback Bld63, I guess from living in the Bay Area, Ca (used vinyl mecca) and from being able to find what I can't find in my usual local haunts from about 50 on-line providers, I've become spoiled. I've seldom had trouble finding the vinyl I've sought at... | |
| How Much To Rival Good Digital Playback I will agree with you on one thing, Pbb. If you do not currently have LP's, or only a few, it will cost you quite a bit to build a record collection. If one already has a ton-o-CD's this is another concern. OTOH, the cost of MOST vinyl will run yo... | |
| Need help with Ortofon stylus force gauge The Ortofon gauge shipped with my Illustrious I consider a novelty item. :-) It is cute, but not too accurate by my estimation. My Shure was with 0.05 gr when compared with my friend's Winds gauge, but the Ortofon weighed 0.2 gr heavier than the S... | |
| Harmonic Tech AC-11/Mccormack DNA225/Adcom gfp-750 I've had extremely good results with my DNA-225 using an Audience Power Chord. I tried some more expensive cords, too, but didn't hear any significant difference. A winner for the DNA-225, IMHO. | |
| Vinyl Liquid Dispenser I've said this time and again, and will yet again! :-) I agree with Steve and others - Record Research Labs fluids are the best for leaving no sonic signature and, as Steve points out, there is seldom need for multiple rinses as with some other pr... | |
| Recommended preamp for McCormack DNA-125?? Just a short addition. I used a Bent Audio passive with my DNA-225, liked it very much, but parted with it for reasons other than the pairing with the DNA-225. BTW, I liked the Bent better than the Placette. Also, do not forget the McCormack passi... |
