| Denon 103 vs 103r opinions - Sonic Differences How does the retipped 103R compare with a stock OC9ML II or III? | |
| Should I upgrade to a Manley Chinook phono pre-amp You might just want to call Keith Herron. It's hard to tell what he might have laying around. | |
| Should I upgrade to a Manley Chinook phono pre-amp I don't make Herron Audio VTPH-2 phono stages, but they sure sound good to my ears. I used a VTPH-1mc with a Clavis da Capo and was very pleased with the music it provided. | |
| Turntable Recommendation for Beginner Classic 2 plus an OC9 would work well. Properly set up, it would perform very well. I've heard an OC9 in a Classic 2 and 3. It's a very good match. Classic 2 to make VTA adjustment easy. Should have some kind of hi-gain mc phono stage if one isn't... | |
| DIY turntable plinth material I've been curious about Corian. Is it easily worked like wood or MDF? Looking for a possible alternative to the acrylic plinth I'm using now. How does it sound compared to the VPI plinths? | |
| Turntable Recommendation for Beginner I've got a used HW-19 III with a Premier FT3 that would be a nice table for a first timer. I was using it with an OC9ml (1) with good results. Always performed well. | |

| DIY turntable plinth material IMO, the better VPI platters seem to work very well with MDF. In particular, the Aries and Classics are great performers. That might be an easy and inexpensive place to start. It might also be a good idea to figure out a good set of feet or suspen... | |
| Turntables with warm/smooth mids and highs Used VPI TNT1 or HW-19 IV. Both should be generally around your budget though you might be able to find a -19 IV a little cheaper. | |
| Mc cartridge and phono amp So far with my experience....Phono stage: Used Herron Audio VTPH-1mc (if you can find one)Cart: AT OC9/IICleaning machine: HW-16.5Total should come in on budget. | |
| Help me pick a great phono cable OK, so I have a bias toward Herron Audio equipment. But I've heard particularly sound using Heith Herron's audio cables. They run from my table (VPI Aries) through to the amps. IMO, Herron cables are very reasonably priced and perform quite well. ... | |
| Cart for Aries 1 with JMW-12 Keith Herron takes care of my VTPH-1 phono stage. No issues with mismatches. | |
| Don't use this to lube your VPI Classic bearing How about "Phil's" Green Bicycle Grease? |
