| Whats on your turntable tonight? About to derail our wonderful music appreciation thread, I do like the MP 500, but I think it is a little bit overpriced, or perhaps maybe a better way to say it would be that there are other cartridges that are as good or better at that price poi... | |
| Two Nice Small Tweaks to Klipsch Forte III Loudspeakers A Subdude doesn't create any space under the speaker. Shouldn't cause any harm. Every Harbeth stand that I remember seeing is open underneath the speaker. | |
| MM Cartridge for music on the heavier side If LOMC is an option, I'd also consider the Denon DL-301 MKII if you can find one. I recently bought one on ebay for $250. It's what's currently on my SL1200 MK 2. Sounds great with all types of music. | |
| MM Cartridge for music on the heavier side I have a Nagaoka MP-500 (out of the OP's budget) and it is one of the better cartridges I own, compares nicely to some of my MC carts. A little on the "warm" side (which I like) and nice extension throughout the frequency range. When I bought my... | |

| CD Player vs. music streaming That's the great thing about streaming, it dramatically expands access to music. I tried the Pangea power cord and didn't hear a noticeable difference. YMMV | |

| CD Player vs. music streaming I went to one of my favorite dealers yesterday (Gig Harbor Audio) and they just happened to have a Lumin T2 set up in their main demo system. It sounded fantastic. I'd probably go for the D2. I have some other priorities ahead of that, but a ne... | |
| How good can it get, really? - my stereo sounds amazing! If you're happy with what you have, that's awesome! If you want to take it to another level, add another sub (or 2 or 3). You'll get a lot more bang for your buck out of that than buying expensive cables. Not that they can't help, but whatever ... | |
| Two subs or not two subs... Get rid of the Klipsch. I owned a couple of their subs a few years ago and they were junk compared to anything you can get from HSU, SVS, PSA, Rythmik, etc. Maybe they've gotten better over the years, but I doubt it.You could use your VTF-15H wi... | |

| Advice for novice needed on turntable A little over your budget new, but you might be able to find a used or demo Clearaudio Innovation at your budget. That's a looker. | |
