cartridge loading ?

Why was Audiogon started?
Hey Cdc, How are you? Look at it from this perspective. California is a great place to vacation! My door will always be open. I am relocating to a beautiful little town inland in SanDiego county called Temecula. Other than the landscape, it remind... 
Why was Audiogon started?
I love this site. Although, I participate more in the winter months. IMO, Connecticut sucks in the winter. I feel like a caged animal. Consequently, I listen to my music more and participate in the forums more often during the winter months. Soon,... 
I need audition advice
You're Welcome Dennis. I don't know what actual VPI you are presently using, but in general, VPIs can tend to sound in the "warmer" category. Cartridge selection is a synergy selection process. Rule of thumb? Warm + warm = warmer = coloration. I p...

Tutordennis, my first suggestion would be taking the dollar figure right out of the equation. In fact, let's put it in this perspective: Under $700.00. How's that?I own a VPI table and have used every cartridge you have mentioned except the new Su...

Buzzing in Exactpower SP15
Mghcanuck, The AC offset killer is only good for 10 amps. I really would not know where else to go until Exactpower releases their little correction unit. That will be good for 15 amps. Although I won't tell you that the Offset Killer won't work. ... 
Sand filling Premier S-series speaker stand, How?
Hi again Uwloian, Yes, any Home Depot, Lowes, and even hardware stores carry sand. Playbox sand is very good because it usually has been washed (less dust).The best coated lead shot that I know of can be purchased at a local dive shop. Coated shot... 
Sand filling Premier S-series speaker stand, How?
Uwloian, I am not using the Paradigm stands, but I am using Energy dedicated stands on my Veritas 2.2s. I filled my stands by pushing plastic bags into the stands first, then filling the bags. It is basically the same concept as a bladder. You wil...
