Nitty Gritty has closed Sorry to hear about his health issues. His machines cleaned a lot of vinyl over the years. A thousand or so (several times over) in my house alone. | |
Opinion - Every audiophile should build at least 1 pair of speakers I bought some plans for Lowther Fideleo speakers in the late 90's early 2000's & built them with my father in his garage workshop around the same time. I was working/living down South at the time so we'd work on them when I was in town. He tau... | |
speaker wire recommendations needed Another one to consider is Oyaide 12ga. explorer speaker wire. Parts Connexion has it on sale & it's in your price range. It is also ridiculously good. | |

Phono preamp question I bought a used melos 222 in the 90's because it had a fantastic phono stage. about 10 years later I bought a used sonic frontiers phono amp (for about the same price) & the difference was well worth the cost. Now this set-up is very modest co... | |
