VPI Uni-Pivit Tone Arms
Today I did some adjustments of the arm. I discovered that because the spike has worn down, the cartridge barely touch the vpi jig when aligning the cartridge on the white dot on the jig. I finally got the Azimuth almost perfect using an oscillosc...

Rolin:I agree with you on the spike. Probably that's what happen to me. I have not heard from VPI as yet, so I might give them a call. I am also thinking of getting a new 3D arm, or even move up to the Prime Signature. Other option is to get a McI...

I like to listen and try things out for myself, so I decided to try these units out. Plus I have a lot of LP that a friend gave me and I want to rip them on CD for her, which the SC2 can do.

Building a $1200 RCA Interconnect Cable
I have been soldering  for many years, and I definitely know how to do it. I did complete the soldering on the WBT RCA connectors for these cables with no issue. I just thought the entire  connector was made of copper. I also have expensive RCA ca...
