| Dynavector 10x5 cartridge.....with which table ? Hey Slvrtravel............Just like you, most of my LP collection is 50's (and 60's) jazz. Brubeck, Coltrane, Rollins, Blakey/Messengers, Morgan, Mobley, Grant Green, Miles, Peterson, Silver, Mingus, Monk, etc., etc.It seems as if your Scout/DV20H... | |

| rega 3-24 verses other similiar priced tables Try to get a copy of last month's Stereophile, and read Fremer's review of the P3/24. He seems to love it, especially with the upgraded power supply and the Exact II cartridge. Good Luck and Happy Listening ! | |
| $ 2500 -- Best Way to Spend It Today ? Hey Piedpiper....Thanks for your input !! That's some great advice !!....And yes, enjoying "Hank and the crew" and really digging the tunes is what it's all about, my friend. After all, when we get right down to it, it's the MUSIC that really matt... | |
| $ 2500 -- Best Way to Spend It Today ? Hey, Johnnyb53..........Those are some pretty solid ideas. Thanks a lot. Yes, my TT arm is the Rega RB-250, and I just switched to the Rega glass platter (I need to upgrade the photos in my "system link" to show the newly improved table, and to al... | |
| $ 2500 -- Best Way to Spend It Today ? Hey Jaybo......Thanks for the comment. I spent three hours in front of my Vandersteens last night, listening to my upgraded NAD 533 through my Rogue Cronus, thoroughly enjoying Hank Mobley, Dizzy Reese, Lee Morgan, old Led Zep, and acoustic Gratef... | |

| Turntable lamp suggestions? Thank you, Forrestc..........I bought the BBQ grill lamp at Lowe's. Nice, bright, focused LED lights, and the clamp -- gooseneck assembly fits perfectly on my Sanus rack. | |
| Rega Elys II cartridge: Is it worth the money?? Let me throw my hat into the ring of Rega supporters. My NAD 533 table (A Rega Planar 2 w/ RB-250 arm) has performed flawlessly for the past 6 years, and I am seriously considering a Rega P5 when I decide to buy a new table. Additionally, I have s... | |
| Easy and simple, with great sound.....HELP Stringreen, Narrod, and Miner42.....Thanks for your input.If I take the "average" of your recommendations, it seems as if the Rega P5 with the Dynavector pick-up is the way to go. That makes sense, and I'll "research" this idea further. Let's assu... | |
| Small NAD 533 upgrade.....Immediate pleasure. Thanks Joe......I appreciate your comment. What cartridge do you have on your P5 ? Are you happy with it ? Do you run it through the Cronus' phono stage, or do you have an outboard stage ? My NAD 533 is being run directly through the Cronus' phono... | |
| Shelter 201 cartridge versus Ortofon 2M Blue Just my two cents........The Goldring mid-priced MM pick-ups may work quite well with your system. They sound great with a full spectrum of music, and across a wide range of bass to treble frequencies. It's "not as cool" to own a Goldring as it is... | |
| Which TT Music Hall 5.1 or Rega P1 or P2 I have a six year old NAD 533 table with an upgraded Rega glass platter, RB-250 tonearm, and Goldring Elektra cartridge. This is baiscally a Rega Planar 2 set-up. It sounds absolutely wonderful through my Rogue Audio tubes and Vandersteen 1C speak... | |
| Herbie's mat with NAD 533 Hi Ekobesky............Well, I got the new Rega 10 mm., 3.7 lbs. glass platter today, FedEx'd from Audio Advisor, with a new Rega 2 mm. felt mat. I immediately compared one of my "reference recordings," Sonny Rollins' "Way Out West," first using m... |
