| Audio Research or Luxman? +1 for Nobel for volume pots. Would be very surprised if there is not an equivalent that can be used, only issue may be space to fit. As for balance control, would suggest it is not required. If not Nobel I would hope that any reputable service e... | |

| Help with Cartridge choice Might sound like a backward step, but the Ortofon SPU Royal N is pure musical magic, I know people that have replaced Kondo IOM's with it and have not looked back. It does need quite a massy arm with VTA adjustment and a phono stage with a decent ... | |
| Tannoy anyone? Cheviot Legacy vs. Stirling GR @budburma I think you should try to listen to both before you decide, a 10" driver is not going to lack a lot of slam in comparison to a 12". We can all have an opinion, but it is not our ears or our money. | |
| Tannoy anyone? Cheviot Legacy vs. Stirling GR I have Arden's, interesting point regarding lifting units up to ear level. I have the toe in a lot less with no perceivable issues with imaging or soundstage. Might be because my room is only 10ft wide so they are fairly close to sidewalls and ob... | |

| Is the Audio Ref-6SE worth 7K more than the BAT VK-80? Get a Shindo pre you will never look back wondering. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Diamond Head - Canterbury, by far the best Diamond head album, an album that deserves a lot more credit than it gets and an album I never tire of listening to. | |
| Top 3 songs to evaluate a system Joan Armatrading - Opportunity from Show Some Emotion, great bass, drums, acoustic guitar, sax and ambient detail.Nils Lofgren - Keith Don't Go, Live know someone else has nominated this but it is an awesome recording for evaluating a system.Tom W... | |
| Bought a new McIntosh amp I think most people agree that if you have doubts and as you are on a budget, then take it back as it could end up being an expensive mistake. I tend to agree you would get more benefits out of a speaker change. However if you go for the Klipsch I... | |
| Cornwall IV and subwoofers I am amazed that you need a sub with the Cornwalls. I have Tannoy Arden Legacy, also with 15" drivers definitely no sub required. | |
| 16 bit vs 24 bit vs 35 bit vs 36 bit vs 64 bit DAC sampling I thought my point was about bitrate, in that Audio note are only 16bit and they are developing a 12bit, and suggesting to check out Peter Qvortrup's views on bitrates, but heyho! |
