| Suggestions for my first turntable? The VPI Scout and JMM 9 arm is a super combo. Mate that with a Dynavector 20-XH (2.5Mv) and you be in vinyl heaven for around $2k. | |
| Acoustic Zen vs. Nordost - wchich one to choose? From a value perspective, the AZ line blows away the Nordost. The new WoW ICs and the Satori are stunning for the $$. | |
| ? for Proac Response Owners The best termination you can use between the binding posts is a pair of jumpers made from the same speaker cable. If you are using bananas, then obviously, this is not an option. Bottomline, use biwire cables. | |

| Triangle speaker- comments Mike- I owned the Triangle Antal xs for about 6 months. After extensive break-in (75 hrs) I found them to be fast, neutral and detailed. I was using a Copland CTA 402 tube integrated, producing 55wpc at 8 ohms. Initially, I was very pleased with t... | |

| tube suggestion Zonus- I have tried the Mullards, Teles', GE 5 Stars and Dutch Amperex in my CAL Alpha and the Amperex are what I stayed with. Sean- It seems that Kevin Deal recommends Mullards for everything. He said the same thing to me when I asked for suggest... | |
| What are the best tubes to use with the BAT VK75SE Tube choices are very subjective depending on your total system and musical tastes. My experience with trying 12au7s.

| Speaker suggestions for Cary SLI-80 tube amp You will need more power than the SLI-80 can produce to effectively run the Quads. The Gershmanns would be a good choice as they are very efficient. My room has similar dimensions. I had run my ProAc 2.5s off a 55wpc tube integrated (similar to th... | |
| Cable rec for Triangle Antal/Linn Classik combo I owned the Antal xs for about 6 months and despite the reviews, they are IMHO, bass shy. I would suggest staying away from silver cables, which will probably be budget-busters anyway. I used Discovery 1-2-3 biwire which were fine. And yes, bi-wir... | |
