| BEST CD TRANSPORT @trn - I suggest you follow up on looking at the CEC TL5 or TL2. I also had space issues and the CECs are quite compact and a minimum of space is needed due to the relatively low profiles. I have the TL5 and I am satisfied with the sound, but I re... | |

| How often to you clean vinyl and the needle? Records in the Nitty Gritty when new. Rarely after that. Stylus with Oznow after every side and usually a swipe with LP#9. I have never had an issue with Lp#9 ever damaging a stylus or cartridge. | |
| Phono Cables for Sutherland 20/20 mk1? Sorry. A product of my not reading carefully enough. | |
| Phono Cables for Sutherland 20/20 mk1? Cardas are sold as 2 separate cables. You can separate them as much as needed. The only joined interconnects I’ve seen are the cheap throw-aways that come with inexpensive CD players and such. Unless I misunderstood your question. | |

| Looking for suggestions for me new analog system Personally, if I were starting over with analog, I would buy the Technics 1200gs for about $4300. Well built, fuss free and interchangeable headshells if you want to fool around with cartridges. | |

| Warm sounding phono cartridge Try a Goldring 1042. Good tracking and not forward at all, IMO | |
| Pro-Ject Tube Box DS2 Phono. Where do I go from here? I don’t know if you’ve done anything yet, but the Pro ject tube boxes can benefit greatly from upgraded tubes. Call Brent Jesse and ask his opinion. No need to spend a fortune. I would say a pair of vintage tubes in the $100-$200 range would make ... | |
| What are your top three live concerts of all time? @jglacken - Sly opened for the Stones? When was this? | |
| Can you damage your speakers by plugging bass port vent? No, you will not hurt the speaker unless you jam something so far inside that you physically damage a driver or the wiring. Some ported speakers were sold with foam plugs for controlling bass response. | |
| Check these albums from Blue Coast Records Reminds me of Wyndham Hill. Some of the stuff looks nice, but $40 for a CD is a little steep. The download prices seem reasonable though. | |
| Rein in the winter static Gruv Glide totally kills static. I have posted about this several times if you want to search. Makes playing records much more enjoyable if you have major static issues. | |
| CEC Belt Drive CD Transports vs Jay's Audio CD Transports @no_regrets -well, I’m glad to hear you are recovering. When you have health problems, you realize how unimportant other things are on the priority list. Glad you’re happy with the Jays/mojo combo. I’m sure it sounds wonderful. And forget that “f... |
