| Audio Rack Opinions I've been happy with my rack from Hi-Fi racks in the UK. You can customize the rack right in their website. There was no import duty. https://www.hifiracks.co.uk/collections/hi-fi-racks?page=2 | |

| How do you arrange the order of your records? @mrskeptic Thank you! I'm not the only one! 😀 I call it my OCD. The only downside is Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers ends up separated from Petty, Tom. I can live with it. Yeah I have oddball things in their own little sections (Box sets, cleanin... | |
| How do I get the best soundstage? Don't forget about treating the room. The best sounding gear in a crappy sounding room will sound crappy. This worked best for me for speaker placement. Get those speakers away from the wall. | |

| High end cartridge @polkalover are you me? 😀 I just put a Paua Mkii in my system a few weeks ago and the sound is amazing. @knight7m Sound smith makes cartridges in many price ranges. They also have high low and med output cartridges. I would call into their voic... | |
| Audiomods Tonearm..... @williewonka It's quite nice. Punches above it's price point since there are no dealers involved. It comes with a ton of accessories in the box. Be sure to ask Jeff if you need a spacer or not. | |
| Duelund conversion to DIY Helix Geometry Cabling @williewonka Hey Steve, I'm curious why you switched to smaller wires in the silver cable build? Was it just the associated cost or other, more technical, factors? Thanks, Ron | |
| Duelund conversion to DIY Helix Geometry Cabling Thanks. I ordered a batch of parts from Take Five Audio. They had all of the parts in 1 place and they ship down here to the States cheaply. 🤞 I got the tubing sizes correct. Thanks for the amazing thread @williewonka @wig @grannyring a... | |
| Cullen or Triode Wire Labs power cord? I'm using the TWL power cables throughout my system plus two power conditioners from PI Audio. It made a huge difference. Pete is a great guy. I would email him and tell him what you are trying to power. I would also mention you are considering '... | |
| Duelund conversion to DIY Helix Geometry Cabling @williewonka In your post from Jan-15 '22, are you still putting each signal wire inside it’s own Teflon tube? | |
