Sumiko Flux Buster Demagnetizer
I've used the Sumiko Fluxbuster periodically for years and never had an issue with any MM or MC cartridge.  
Hum on Tube Amp - Can't find source
You might want to try these amps in a different location to see if you get a different result, but I doubt you will. Even though the amps have been recently checked, they sound suspect to me. Many an amplifier or vacuum tube set have passed a benc... 
Is Bob Carver Still in Business?
jimclarkstereo Obviously you have never listened to our product. Maybe you should buy the Topping that is #2 on ASRs list? Reports are that is sounds pretty poor but ranks really high. Yes copy and paste is the easiest way to respond with the tr...

▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲ Hey @jimclarkstereo this is the same cut-and-paste silliness that you posted a few days ago here. Do you think spamming this group will help your sales?  
Has anyone been able to define well or measure differences between vinyl and digital?
johnread57 ... we know the dynamic range of cd’s is larger than vinyl ... We know that CD has a greater potential dynamic range than LP but in practice, the opposite is often the case.  Just look at the DR database. LP has much better HF tha... 
Best Alignment Protractor?
I have a bunch of gauges, including the Denneson and CartAlign but my favorite is the original arm-specific Wallytractor, just like @wrm57. I do not think they are currently available.

Outlet - Shunyata vs Hubble 20 amp
jumia shouldn’t it be isolated, that is grounded back to the panel ... If we’re talking about power in the US, an isolated ground is bonded to the service panel’s (load center) ground bus bar, or to the sub panel's ground bus bar.  
Best Alignment Protractor?
dover No overhang on a linear tracker. More correctly, a parallel tracker has zero overhang. How can you ensure zero overhang when setting up a parallel tracker? On most of them, you need a gauge or protractor.  
Best Alignment Protractor?
clearthinker Best protractor is no protractor. Get a parallel tracker. Parallel tracking arms also require alignment. Azimuth, VTA/SRA, overhang.  
Combination streamer and music server…without DAC
soix You have no shame, and frankly your disingenuous behavior disgusts me ... I’M NOW CALLING ON THE MODERATORS OF THIS SITE TO FINALLY BAN AUDIOTROY .. SPEAK UP AND MAKE YOUR VOICES HEARD ... I think Audiotroy is as welcome here as most ever... 
whats wrong with audiogon?
fisher_400 Audiogon server is old and it takes about 10 seconds delay on anything. Open a file, 10 seconds. Schroll down another 10 second delay ... Audiogon pages load quickly and smoothly for me.  
Why is it necessary to have gear on the same phase from electrical panel?
Yes, the reasoning for keeping your system all on the same leg in your panel is to keep it separate from potentially noisy appliances, which would be on the other leg. I haven't found any benefit from that in my system, but of course YMMV.  
Where should I go from here with my digital front end?
sns I recall seeing  noise measurements ethernet vs fiber somwhere, was cited by post on some thread here. My use of objective was directed towards near universal consensus of individuals ... Thanks for clarifying. That isn't what I imagin... 
Where should I go from here with my digital front end?
sns Lowered noise floor is likely the first thing one will notice with insertion of fiber, this will generally be an objective  finding. While many cite a lower noise floor with fiber, they usually do so by saying the noise isn't noticeable un...
