Turntable choice for mono records
@vacountryboy, Your welcome. I also have an ML. For the price of an ML in Mono, which is not available, you can get a Cadenza Mono šŸ˜

@lewm, Iā€™ve tried every combo, but as you may or not know, the Cadenza is not a true Mono cart. I just went down that road not to fuss with adjustments. "Wax on-Wax off"!  
What was the first power cable that you noticed a difference in the sound?
The only really noticeable change for me was, an Isotech power cord to my Modwright power supply.

@lewmĀ on my Technics GAE with an SME 309 arm, I switch from my Cadenza Black & Cadenza Mono, running to my Modwright 9.0. I can definitely hear a difference. With theĀ  Mono, the base has more authority, & the music justs flows better.....šŸ˜‰  
Linlai KT88 experience?
Iā€™m not surprised on how the Linlai tubes are as good as they are. Iā€™m running the Global E in your personal pre-amp you sold me & like them as much as all my NOS JANs in my stash. Iā€™m curious on how they would stack up against the K&R kt8... 
Ultrasonic cleaning

Speaker Cable Recommendation
@tvrgeek, I use the 12/14&16 gauge for my basement setup, with nice results.Ā  My main setup, I use, Furutech OCC wire. FS-36, made a significant improvement over the Monoprice 4/12 I was using before. Ā   
Mains Power Cable DIY
Conclusion; The cable made no significant change on my table. Maybe I'll try it out on my amp, which has an Ice Age cable there already.Ā   
Experience with Modwright products?
I have Dan's 9.0 Phone Pre. & I agree with your comment on his personality, but I can't see the cost of the upgrade to his X model, as my system sounds steller to me already.  
Tweeter protection
Thank you Gents. I just went for $500.00 plus for 4 new diaphragms. It must be that when I recalibrate my AVR, it's set to high.Ā Ā   
Tweeter protection
Thanks. Will do.  
Can you live with your current speaker until you die?
Yes, you can see my front end in my system. I'm just curious how the new Tannoy SGM15s would sound?
