| How can I fix this Phono Stage problem Thank for your reply.I think the CA-430 is causing a ground-loop. I took off the connection from the TT to the CA-430 and the buzzzz stop. Then then I tried a cheater plug on the CA-430 but that still did not stop the buzzzzz. I have an old Mcinto... | |
| How many Lp do U have more than 5 of the Same I solve the issue of buying multiple copies of a LP by entering my LP collection into a database. I use iDBmaster for the iPhone to manage my record collection, so when I go to a record store, I check to see if I already have that LP. This saves m... | |
| Japanese Vinyl Pressing Albums at Disk Union range from 500 to 10000 Yen. There were some boxes with cheaper ones for 300 Yen, they call those "Dead Stock". I dive into the Dead stock and picked out a few good sounding Jazz LP. I always look into the cheap boxes first, e... | |
| How good is a Cary PH302? TO: Petng.If you are serious about a phono stage, look no further: Go with the ModWright. I own this unit for almost two years now and I am very please with it, and I listen to my system almost every day. Before buying the ModWright, I auditioned ... | |
| Stand out phono stages I think you should also listen to Modwright SWP 9.0 SE phonostage. I own one and I tried a few phonostages before settleing with the Modwright. I tried Eastern Electric Minimax, ASP, Graham Slee Era Gold V, and the phonostage in my McIntosh preamp... | |
| One Step Record Cleaner Recipe I am using "Penta water" as a final rince, seems to work well in addition to my home brewed stuff. Penta water can be found in drugs store or health food stores. I do not know of a one step home brewed cleaner. | |
| VPI Classic - Now you have one...... It is great to hear good things about the VPI Classic. I have ordered mine from 11/4/09 and I am still waiting to get it. I even called VPI and they said orders are backed up and promised that mine would be shipped to my dealer on Monday, but I wa... | |
| New TT-- new problem Actusreus I think you received some very good tips here. I would also advise you to call up VPI and talk to Mike. I did when I got my VPI Scout and he told me how to isolate the turntable, how to make sure that the tone arm is straight using an in... | |
| Ear 834P or Decware ZP3 or other tube phono stage FretshopYou should also look at a Modwright tube phono stage (9.0 SE).I am using one after trying out other ones like Graham Slee, and SAP phono stages. I also have a VPI Scout with a Denon DL-S1 MC cartridge. | |
| Experiences on Tom Evans phono stage ? I think you should have a look at Modwright tube phono stage before you make your purchase. I have tested it against several phono stages like SAP, and Graham Slee, and I kept the Modwright. | |
| MC Output Voltage - Impact on Noise I am using a Denon DL-S1 on my VPI Scout. The output is 0.15mv and they recommend a load of 100 ohms. But at that load I find the sound a bit thin, so I tried it at 1K ohms and 47K ohms. It does sound louder with the 47K ohms setting, but the 1K o... | |

| MC Load Resistance Thanks for your reply.I am using a Modwright phono stage, I set the switches on it to 100 ohms first with the Denon S1, and it sounds good but a bit on the thin side with much less bass than when I set the switches to 47K ohms. At that setting the... | |
| Damaged Dynavector 20XL Cruz123 I feel your pain. A few weeks ago I was spinning some vinyl and as I changed the record my hand touched the cartridge and I tried to catch it before it hit the record. In so doing, my hand hit the stylus and bent it. And like a fool I trie... | |
