| Advice wanted on mid range setup The problem I beleive that you have allready addressed that seams to get overlooked is the output of the MC cartridge verses the phono stage output. For a ph3 w/ 53db gain and say a .5MV MC cartridge it is pushing it. I know allot of fellow audiog... | |
| Severe Static/Slight Hum SME 20/2 w/BAT Well here`s my expereance, I had same problem low level hum. I have a TNT JR /BAT vkp-5 tried several things as Twl suggested I grounded better (Twl suggestion are execellent)no such luck for me. When I did switch tonearm cable from stock SME To Z... | |

| Best new/demo/used value for $7.5K range I purchased a demo pair of mezzo`s about 4 months ago from a jm lab dealer for $6500. w/ full warrenty.Im using a Mcintosh mc-352 with I would say great results. Ive been seeing used mezzo`s for 6500./5700. It does confuse me with the warrenty you... | |
| To retube or not to retube? Jfrech I have it set on 56db gain I also run the RUBY at 100 ohms, I know thats a little lower than others recommend but thats what my ears like. Back to the tubes yes they are original probably w/ 1000 to 1200 hrs. Tubes are next on my list of up... | |
| BAT or Lamm Jfrech Im on the same page as you I already thought about the xlr imput and outputs I also have a SCD-1 which also has either xlr or single ended it has been pluged into single ended because the c42 only has 1 xlr input which is being used for the... | |

| How do you get past the pops and hiss of LPs? I beleive Sean has nailed this one, no amount of cleaning or snake oil can ever restore a damaged LP. Sometimes when I read the posts I beleive some people dont want to hear the truth, the truth is anolog takes a lot of effort and time to get it r... | |
| suggestions for turntable set up around $6,000. Eralf 6k is right in the ballpark for a decent rig, most definetly look into a used VPI TNT the mkV is a upgrade from what I have. I have a TNT JR / SME 309 / Benz Ruby H , this combo is really a great setup, once you set the VPI up FORGET ABOUT I... | |
| Turntable - Where do I start ? Valleyplastic I have a mc 352/c42 I had a rega p-25 with a h/o benz ace 2.5MV since the c42 only has a moving magnet phono section. I did read the reveiw on the c2200 in Steriophile and it did and continues to get great reveiws and I know it has a... | |
| JM LAB I find them very revieling, the midband is very very good,imageing is great I have heard a better soundstage with Avalon, I have not worked out placement of speakers yet, 2ft from rear wall and about 4ft from side wall 12 1/2ft apart 11ft from spe... | |
| Boise, Idaho I guess since Twl is in, since he`s in Las Vegas I should have no reason to head to Boise since Im in the Seattle area. This would give me a good reason to use the SCD-1, since it weighs 65lbs it could be good for traction in the winter(it has not... | |
