| Table/Cartridge price ratio johnnyb53..i used to use a CA 640p with my dl-160, and yeah, it didn't sound bad. after reading Hdm's posts about dialing in db gain, i decided to give a phono pre, with adjustable gain and load, a shot. i was able to get a musical surroundings ph... | |
| Installing Origin VTA on P25 hope u get some responses here..i'm another one with a rega 25 who'd like to dial in vta better. there is a rega forum on vinyl engine that u could look at. and, a brit site, pink fish media might be a help if you're able to get into their archives. | |
| Your First Concert was..... jimi hendrix at the old minneapolis auditorium in 1968. the thing i remember most is the way he laughed into the mike....the laugh of a guy who felt he had the world by the tail..and godamn, he did | |

| Integrated Amp Bargains with good balanced sound? i looked thru your other threads and i see that we have a few components in common. i run a rega 25 (1 "up" from your rega 3) we also use the denon dl-160. my integrated amp is the audio refinement complete. as others have said, if u get the ARCom... | |
| I walked into a dealer and got a shock.... i own a rega 25, too. i also get a grinding sound upon start-up...i don't like it, but for the meanwhile, i'm gonna live with it. i also found the rega 25 "thin" sounding until i got an outboard power supply for it...the heed orbit. actually, the ... | |
| Most popular TT upgrades: skeptical but curious... "changed the sound?" well, i guess u could put it that way. i like to think the heed orbit/vh flavor 4 combo enabled the rega to realize its potential. prior to the power cord switch, the sound was alright but a bit "thin." now rhe sound has more ... | |
| Most popular TT upgrades: skeptical but curious... i recently bought a rega 25 here on audiogon. it came with the 1rst 4 upgrades u listed along with the heed orbit outboard power supply. so, i can't say what effect those 1rst 4 upgrades may have had. but i do know that when i replaced the heed or... | |
| update recommendations ok stringreen...fair enuf. like i said in my first post, i'm pretty much a "rockhead" and the rega/heed orbit/vh audio power cord combo RAWKS. and it's all good...your post has even made me curious about the superscoutmaster ;) | |
| update recommendations kind of a snooty reply there, stringreen. my perception of the sound i'm getting now, in relation to the scoutmaster's sound, is an (ephemeral) "bubble" heh?i've never heard the vpi scoutmaster, so there is a chance that it may play at your "big-b... | |
| update recommendations i have a rega 25 with the platter upgrades, expressimo counterweight and the heed orbit power supply. i thought the sound was a little "thin" so i bought my first non-stock power cord this week. the cord was a vh audio flavor 4. i first placed thi... | |
| Alpha Core Goertz when i saw this thread a while back, i was going to pile on, but then i decided to just let it go. last summer, i sent a query to alphacore about the use and necessity of their zobel network in my system. in reply, i was told the zobel was to be p... | |
