Differences between SR Tesla and Supra Sword
And there should be no comparison as no cable is "better" than another.Cables are system and listener dependent. This is why many systems are wired with cables that are modestly priced. There is, at best, only a minimal positive correlation betwee... 
Tone arm bounces
Al makes a good point with regards to tracking force.With few exceptions, I've found that optimal tracking occurs closer to the maximum recommended VTF as opposed to the minimum.And a sidenote, you can do more damage to records with insufficient, ...

"Kisses on the Bottom" by Paul McCartney
As are dozens of other artists but McC and Dylan are the 2 living preemeinent rock singer/songwriters. There really is nobody else in this league.With respect to Paul Simon, Neil Young, Becker/Fagan, Plant/Page, and all the rest.

Upgrading the Dynavector DV-20X Low MC Cartridge
I sell both Lyra and Dynavector. IMO ptmconsulting's comment about the lower end models sounding top heavy is simply lack of experience with them.The performance of any cartridge is ultimately defined by the associated components i.e turntable, to... 
Anyone tested the Synergistic Research Vibratron ?
Hello Roger,Please read my post again. My response to the question was "no"; I have not tried the product.Hope that helps. 
Psvane Teflon capacitors real or fakes?
From a dealer's perspective I agree with Rodman. A few years ago I represented Consonance through their North American importer in Pennsylvania. I had a few problems and getting them resolved was quite difficult and in one particular case the pare...
