Tonearm microphonics
Infection what I have done is used some of the plumbers teflon tape and wrapped the arm tube. It improved the sound so I left it. I would try that. If it sounds worse remove it or some of it. And Raul is right. It is like a microphone and I wouldn... 
Conrad Johnson--does anyone use this brand anymore?
Regarding people's worry about the companies future, I wouldn't stress about it. It's tube electronics any competent tech should be able to fix it.  
Journey ending speakers
Ctsooner  i'm glad you love your vandersteens  but I had to chime in and correct your statements. All these so-called advances in materials are mostly bunk.   A good old paper driver is still king for musicality. You can assemble a system with eig... 
Coherent Speakers from Canada
 I have heard two models out of the lineup under show conditions at the Toronto audio show. I have heard both the 12 inch in the 15 inch. My strong favourite was the 15 inch. They are very similar to Tannoy.  The first year I heard them was with t...

Top resistors
If liquid metal really is the cats meow then it should work better for low level signals. From what I understand it is a tin/mercury slurry, both of which are not great conductors, or i should say, not the best conductors.  
Conrad Johnson Classic Sixty
No most tube amps are not light on bass. In fact I find them to do bass much better than solid-state amps. It's true solid-state is tighter but does not sound natural to my ears.  
High mass vs Low Mass Turntables - Sound difference?
 It doesn't vary by a lot but it is still annoying  
High mass vs Low Mass Turntables - Sound difference?
 My only beef with it is that it does not keep consistent azimuth  across the record.

 Are use and early 12 inch version of the WT arm and it works very very well. I think the idea being that the silicone is Rigid enough that the fine movements of the stylus are not going to knock it out of place.
