| IsoAcoustics GAIA I have Gaia II under my Monitor Audio PL200's and find the improvements similar to what ricred1 has experienced. I thought I would try three Orea Indigos isopucks under my AR VSi75 integrated amp and experienced the same improvements as identified... | |
| Tube advice I have just got tube amp, AA VSi75 integrated, with KT150 tubes. The tubes are very easy to bias on this model, select the tube number on the display screen and use the thin plastic screw driver through the access hole in front of each tube. Of co... | |
| Audio Research or Macintosh? It's nice to hear that you have experienced reliability biketony, lots of naysayers out there criticising the longevity of AR products. | |
| Audio Research or Macintosh? Sorry, that is obviously the other way around, from Ayre phono preamp to Settanta. | |
| Audio Research or Macintosh? Thanks to everyone for their opinion and feedback, very helpful. An opportunity kind of made my mind up for me as a fellow on Canuck Audio was selling a VSi75 with a set of KT120' and KT150's with only a 100 hours on both. His unit came with the 1... | |
| New McIntosh MA252 Has anyone compared the MA252 to the Audio Research VSi75? Both are on my shopping list but cannot audition as I live on Vancouver Island. | |

| Aurios Pro for speakers on carpet I have Aurios under my LP12/SME 309/Clearaudio Titanium and find that they make a considerable improvement to the sound. But I have to agree with Disc placing under speakers seems counter intuitive to convention speaker support philosophy in that ... | |
| Demagnetization for MC - good or bad? Your right Stringreen, the top of my unit actually says 'Benz MC Demagnetizer' then has the 'Aesthetix' product name below so I'm assuming Aesthetix made it under licence for Benz - interesting? | |
| Benz cartridge phase? I contacted Benz directly and they confirmed the their cartridges are phase correct. To confirm that they sent me the connection sequence and it matches to the sequence on my SME 309. | |
| Benz cartridge phase? Thanks for the good advice, I will give it a try. If I end up needing to swap the cartridge leads which colours do I change? | |
| Benz cartridge phase? I have just read that Benz cartridges, ( I have a Ruby 3H), have inverted phase. Does anyone know if that is the case and if so which leads have to be changed? |
