| Best amp for Vandersteen Quattro? Sanders ESL monos produced some of the most realistic "life" sized images with great treble purity. | |
| Walker Valid Points or Mapleshade Footers for preamp? Thanks for the link Hotbird. Nice to see you here. ;)GloryI would suggest that you try to listen to the MSF and WVP on a solid wood support(they were designed this way) - preferably as heavy as you can find. The effect is very different if you hea... | |
| Vinyl vs. digital: what am I doing wrong? In which areas was CD better than vinyl? | |
| Vinyl vs. digital: what am I doing wrong? First check your TT settings that everything is in order.If that doesn't work, then get a separate dedicated phonostage, like a Herron/Modwright/Aqvox. | |
| Slate vs Granite vs Maple? I think in this hobby, there are no absolutes. What I mean is, one type of isolation may better suit a certain component, while another will suit the other component.For TTs, I believe the best is still a combination of high mass (granite or equiv... | |

| Esoteric X-01 limitted or Meridian 808? I'm also in the Esoteric camp as I believe their transport mechanism gives them the edge in retriving information from the silver discs.If you want to go for single box, go for the X01, if 2 boxes (for more than a single digital source), the P5/D5... | |
| Plinius SA-103 vs SA-250 MK IV? My recollection of the SA250 was very long ago, but the SA103 is a real beast of an amp. Very powerful and yet with excellent refinement. It was paired with the Dynaudio Sapphire with Audio Magic Stealth XXX and their silver cables and was one of ... | |
| Tonearm conclusions keep coming up Rega ??????? Has anyone compared the various Rega variants?1) Michell Technoarm2) Origin Live modded rb2503) Audio Origami modded rb250 | |
| 5751 tubes in Herron phono Yes I have. My favourite combination is:Brimar 12AT7 black plateTesla ECC803s x2GE 5star 5751 triple mica x2This produced the best mix of detail and warmth/body. | |
