Time Delay on Denafrips Ares ii ? I have an Aries II, but do not use it with the TV/HT set-up, so never tried to sync it with video. Seems per 'King' the latency should be small. But, I know my TV has sync adjustment (most all today do), so I'm not sure why you shouldn't be able t... | |

Whats on your turntable tonight? @big_greg Most (if not all) of the few mono releases I have are newer releases, so the Hana (or another with a 0.7mil) should be best. My trusty Jelco 750D makes it easy to swap out cartridges. Absolutely Greg. If you have new mono releases,... | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? Yes, this brings back memories of all the reading of mono, mono carts, mono switches et. al. before I made the leap. Many camps with various beliefs. One thing to keep in mind, there is no vertical information in a mono groove, only horizontal (s... | |

Whats on your turntable tonight? @tomic601 True Jim, I did consider that as well. Luckily, most my mono LP’s are in really good shape. Perhaps I’m lucky. | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? Good luck Joel, and have a great trip. We’ll be awaiting your thoughts….or….decision 😉 | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? @big_greg Nice re: the Hana. Similar to the Ortofon 2M Mono SE, except MC. I’m not sure I’m thinking of this exactly correctly, but as all my mono LP’s are period pressings (50’s-early 60’s), I didn’t go with the SE as it has a ‘fine line’ styl... | |

What are your favorite recordings that sound best to you? Ray Brown’s Soular Energy is at the top. But, there are others. Soular Energy is my absolute reference LP. | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? @big_greg I have a few mono LP”s, and decided on Ortofon’s 2M ‘inexpensive’ mono cart. I like it. I went back and forth regarding getting a phono pre with a mono switch, but after studying the theory of that vs a dedicated mono cart, went for th... | |
