| Proofreader wanted TreljaPersonally, I find plagiarism (one symptom of the outright dishonesty in this industry as a whole) a far more egregious sin. Multiple episodes on this site, where the general forum had no issue with it, caused my participation and overall fa... | |
| Direct drive vs belt vs rim vs idler arm I don't know how easy or hard is to the LP manufacturers to have their LPs with a " perfect " hole centered. Today we pay a lot of money for new LPs/reissues and the like but the LP manufacturers never fixed that problem and IMHO no one of them ta... | |
| Direct drive vs belt vs rim vs idler arm LewmPeter, Basis turntables are suspended? I guess the top models in the line have pneumatic feet. I usually think of such turntables as un-suspended.Not directed to me, but the Basis Debut Gold is for sure hanging suspension. The four towers on e... | |

| Focal Maestro Utopia , need advice for AMP/PRE You are using the same DAC as me, the Oppo BDP-105. For the money it's unbeatable but in my system it's third choice quality for playback source.If I had digital only I would absolutely upgrade but I cannot tell you what would work because I have ... | |
| Audio Desk Record Cleaner JwmThe problem is to clean first on the KL and then go to the Audio Desk. I bet you get the same results. I found in the past the more you clean the record the better it sounds.I thought of that and used a couple of double LPs (Music Matters Jazz ... | |
| Focal Maestro Utopia , need advice for AMP/PRE Pelo911,I received your message via Audiogon system, thank you for asking my opinion on Focal.I'm not sure my experience precisely applies to your system, I'm pretty much a tube guy all the way and our speaker are not identical although both are f... | |
