| Overhang for Ortofon 2M Bronze on Rega RB301 Musicfile - the cartridge is sounding great. I am still experimenting with the tracking force though and it seems to sound the best between 1.55 grams and 1.65 grams. I downloaded some of the cartridge alignment protractors on vinylengine.com and ... | |
| Overhang for Ortofon 2M Bronze on Rega RB301 Thank you iSanchez - I will definately look into the Mint tractor. | |
| Overhang for Ortofon 2M Bronze on Rega RB301 Ekobesky - just wanted to let you know that I did bump the tracking force up to 1.6 grams and then 1.7grams; it does sound even better now. Now I'm wondering where I can find a blank album so I can accurately set the antiskate? | |
| Overhang for Ortofon 2M Bronze on Rega RB301 Thank you Johnbrown; I will definately check that out. | |

| Von Schweikert VR5SE / Aerial 20T V2 ? I have heard the Von Schweikert VR5s and they are in my opinion one of the very best speakers on the market today. | |
| Cambridge 840c vs. Raysonic CD128 I've had both the Cambridge 840C and Raysonic CD128 and preferred the Raysonic overall; the Raysonic was just more musical with that holographic 3-D tube realism you just don't quite get with solid state units. I presently have the CD168 which in ... | |
| Magnepans and cats, do they mix? I have two cats also. Both have had their front claws removed and are no longer a threat to my Magnepans and the furniture. | |
| Oh, my VSP Labs TransMOS 150 amp back from repair Well I had the VSP Labs TransMOS and Amber Series 70 years ago and all I can say is the Onkyo A-9555, once broken in, will outdo both of them. Be advised that the break-in period for the Onkyo is quite long but once it has broken in it is really a... |
