| ZYX Airy 3x/SB vs. Dynavector XV-1 or 1s That's encouraging news, Nrchy. Looks like there is hope with my current setup. Thanks. | |
| ZYX Airy 3x/SB vs. Dynavector XV-1 or 1s I have about 150 hours on the ZYX. It has pretty much stabilized at about the 100 - 120 hour point. | |
| ZYX Airy 3x/SB vs. Dynavector XV-1 or 1s Sirspeedy, Thanks for the heads up on the cartridge weight compatibility with the 2.2, and tips on the damping fluid tweak.This sounds like a long term endeavor worth the time of any true audio afficianado. | |
| ZYX Airy 3x/SB vs. Dynavector XV-1 or 1s Doug,Thanks for your recommendations. I've played around with VTF and SRA settings quite a bit but not much on the damping fluid. Load is set at the recommended 100ohms. VTF is set at 1.9 and SRA is set with the butt end slightly lower for heavy p... | |

| Looking for phono stage recommendations Check out the Klyne Audio Arts 7PX5. It's a solid state unit with a wide range of gain and load settings. Here's a link to their website but it hasn't been updated in a while. I'm using this with my Airy 3x SB with good results (although I only ha... | |

I now have the latest iteration of the FS Paramount Special Edition. Although I have switched amplifiers... | |

| Original spikes for B&W N802s...who has them? I'll give them a try. Thanks for the recommendation. | |
| Recommendation for a second arm/cartridge combo Thanks for your responses, Flyingred, Cornfedboy, Doug and Raul. I'm about 90% sure on the Schroeder arm but still contemplating on the cartridge. I wish auditioning tonearm/cartridge combos was just as easy and simple as auditioning CD players. T... | |
| Recommendation for a second arm/cartridge combo Thanks, Dougdeacon. Is Galibier the sole distributor for Schroeder? If I go with the Schroeder Reference/ZYX R100 combo, I know I'll be kicking myself down the road for not getting the UNIverse but $10k is also a lot of coin. If I compromise and d... | |
| Recommendation for a second arm/cartridge combo listen mostly to jazz (about 50%), followed by classical (about 30%), then an even split between classic rock and country. I like the idea of the Graham Phantom as the main, then the 2.2 as the secondary due primarily to the ease of setup and my f... | |
| Pass XA160 or Rowland 302 for Eidolon Diamonds Thanks for your responses...Jtinn, the Tenor 300HPM is on a different league -- that should be compared against the JRDG 301 monoblocks which retail for 30 grand. How would the JRDG 302 stach up against the Tenor 75 watter? That should be a more f... |
