So, not a moving coil.

Moving Iron cartridge, Sonata 2, 1.0 mv output. I keep the PhonoBox on MM set at 2 p.m. (the rest of the volume with the 60w tube integrated, but never need past 1 o'clock).

Grado, and an integrated amp.  
My first tube integrated: which one to get?
Person writes a post asking for thoughts on a Rogue vs. a Cary. I like maybe three people actually answer the question and everyone else weighs in with their own junk. If you were in a classroom and answered the teacher's question like this, you'd... 
Best sounding CD player
p.s. - very happy with my Bryston BCD-3, but there are definitely quality control issues with my unit. Tray errors often. I also would recommend CD upgrades available from LCAudio in Denmark if you can get someone to do them. Class A stage output...

Man, I am really SICK AND TIRED of people doing everything but answering the question. dvdgreco asked about CD players and a bunch of you come telling him/her to go into streaming. It's ABOUT CD PLAYERS. Stick to the topic. You're not getting a co...

Thanks! I have a wonderful set of Brimar Yellow T 6060s in my integrated that I guess I could move in there down the road. I have others, as well. RIght now, I'm just going to enjoy the new love with the MM setting. It has the necessary gain, turn... 
Looking for a tube phono pre
I recently purchased the Yoshino EAR Phono Classic (or Phono Box in Europe) and I will vouch for its quality. A definite step up from my long-time friend, the first iteration of the Acoustic-Signature Tango. Best part for a person who hates to jum... 
Best Phono You've Heard Under $2200
This is a really cool thread because it delivers so many options. Obviously a lot of happy campers out there and companies making equipment people respond to. Me, my EAR Phono Classic arrived today to finally move out a very old friend, the first ... 
A tubed integrated amp for Joseph Audio Pulsars?
Nice, NEXT8. Good rec.  
A tubed integrated amp for Joseph Audio Pulsars?
jafant, sadly, no. I will say that swapping the JJ KT88s out for Gold Lion tubes has made a tremendous difference. The Jolida is a fine little amp, but I am looking to change (two years after the post!) and I've also been looking at a phono stage ... 
Capital Audiofest, save thyself!
Thank you, tjassoc, for the fine words. I try to be constructive and kind and also have some fun. I'm exhausted by the viciousness and cowardly sniping on the Internet. Being nice doesn't have to mean we're insufferable goodie goodies, but if you'... 
Capital Audiofest, save thyself!
Jakesnak, the audiophile media constantly advises us to listen to the music, not our equipment. So, when I go to a show, I don't want to just listen to the equipment - but of course also listen to the equipment. I want to have FUN listening to the...
