| anybody have a doshi pre to audition? I would also listen to the Shindo preamps which have been universally praised (I own one and so does Art Dudley) if you can find a dealer close enough to you. Call Jonathan Halpern at Tone Imports who is an absolute gentleman. He hopefully should ... | |
| Shindo Auriges vs. Cary SLP98 I have had both units in my system and currently on a Monbrison. the Cary has a more romantic sound (even the F1) than the Shindo's. The Aurieges and the Monbrison excel at providing the tonality and musical flow. I believe the Shindo's are the be... | |

| Cartridge advice in the $2000 range The rest of my system is Kubala Expression wiring and Merlin Vsm Mx speakers. The stylus on my cartridge was ripped off (i.e. cleaned) by my cleaning lady.BTW, I am thinking about a Raven One. | |
| Michell clamp too tight for Spacedeck? No, I do not have the Michell clamp, but I do have the Harmonix clamp with outstanding results. | |
| Vandersteen 5a vs. B&W 802D vs. Maggie 3.6 vs.? If you have the room, I would add the Quad 2905's to the list, especially if you do not listen at ear splitting levels. | |
