| Carver sonic holography If I had to choose between the CSHG & a Bose Wave radio, I'd probably take the Bose. It's amazing that so many people here seem to like it. One of my biggest disappointments in gear was when I went to audition the Carver Amazing Loudspeakers. ... | |
| I want to upgrade, But , to which table ? I've recently seen VPI Scoutmasters going for the $1500 range. I've had both the standard and the Signature edition. They come with the JMW9 arm. The Sig is better and more pricey. But the Standard is a good table also and will better the scout by... | |
| Great Lost Lps... Blkadr. I pulled the Jean-Luc Ponty- "Enigmatic Ocean" off the shelf and gave it a spin. Sounds good so far (side 1).There are several other albums that others have mentioned which have piqued my curiosity. Thanks for all the input from everyoneAn... | |
| Great Lost Lps... Crack the Sky - All their early LPs are excellent. The Beatles on SteroidsIron Butterfly - 'Metamorphosis". Early Psych at its bestAverage White Band - "Cut The Cake". This is their 2nd album which is as good or better then the 1st albumGreat subj... | |
| Help with Cartridge selection I'd have to agree with Bill & Dan ed. Your TT, arm and phono pre deserves much better cart than you have listed. One thought is that if you go with the Benz line, you may be able to pick up a factory rebuilt Ruby, Ebony or LP at a good discoun... | |
| knoxville Hi TonyUnfortunately, no. I am willing and able but have never heard from anyone concerning a time and place. I suppose I could host but i am in Kingsport which is 1 1/2 to 2 hrs from Knoxville and about the same from Asheville, NC. I assume I am ... | |

| MFSL Super Deep Cleaner or Enzyme? Thanks for the replies. Doug. I have wondered about the AIVS cleaners but haven't read much about them. Then too, I've been hanging out at the low budget vinyl forum where DIY seems to reign, Maybe I should change that since I generally come here ... | |
| Replace OL Illustrious 3 with Graham 2.2? Thanks hifidaddy | |
| Replace OL Illustrious 3 with Graham 2.2? Thanks JohnThe arm is the version 3 just previous to the carbon fiber arm wand. After re-reading some info on the OL, I am in agreement with you that it should not be dismissed easily. I guess i was feeling somewhat insecure about it and needed re... | |
| Replace OL Illustrious 3 with Graham 2.2? Thanks Doug. Ill check that out alsoBTW I snuck in the first Scoutmaster I owned. The MMF-7 which it replaced was black and so they looked similar from a distance. I was waiting to see how long it took her to catch it. Unfortunately, I forgot abou... | |
| Replace OL Illustrious 3 with Graham 2.2? Dan Ed? A question about your equipment racks. The racks are fashioned after the ones on Chris Brady's site I believe. Are you using a sand box under each component as shown on Chris' site?Thanks | |
| Replace OL Illustrious 3 with Graham 2.2? Thanks for the link Dan Ed. The guy I bought the TT from had a triplanar on it but finances did not permit. I had to sneak the OL illustrious in the house. I got a very good deal on it and what few reviews I read gave it much praise. at the time C... | |
| Replace OL Illustrious 3 with Graham 2.2? Doug. I never intended to give the idea that the CDP sounded better than the Teres. However, my exuberance over the improvements which the Oyaide R1 AC outlet brought to the cdp did come through. I'm surprised the cdp sounds as good as it does. Ho... | |
| Replace OL Illustrious 3 with Graham 2.2? Thanks Doug. Your last statement concerning the 2.2 vs OL was my main question. That said, I would buy the 2.2 if it were an upgrade. They are quite inexpensive right now and that was my reasoning. The picys and listing of my system is out of date... |
