| Donald Byrd -- "Mustang " -- A First Listen My two favorite Byrd albums (vinyl, of course !) are "The Catwalk" and "Harlem Blues." And I totally agree with Oddmorning's posting above........The Blue Note albums from that era are all wonderful. A lot of the guys play on each other's albums, ... | |
| Speakers and TT for NAD 3020 Micro-Budget System? Now that your speakers have become a "gift," and your turntable budget has expanded, I would seriously consider the Rega P1/Ortofon package. Easy, great sound, and a wonderful way to enjoy your records with your NAD's phono stage. It's a good idea... | |
| Cartridge recommendations Hey Droz............Are you hearing any significant difference between your Cronus' built-in phono stage and the Project Tube box ??? To my ears, the MM phono stage in the Cronus is really, really good, and works quite well with mid-priced MM cart... | |

| P1,2,3: the best Rega for the job I now have the Rega P3-24 with the Rega Exact II cartridge, and I recently added the Rega TT-PSU power supply. For many years before this, I was very happy with my NAD 533 table and Goldring Elektra cartridge. The NAD 533 is a re-badged Rega Plana... | |

| any good mat for a rega p9? Herbie's "Way Excellent II" mat works wonders on my Rega P3-24. To my ears, a very noticeable improvement over the Rega felt. A great "bang for the buck" tweak, and I believe there's a trial period, so you've got nothing to loose. Good Luck, and H... | |
