| Zu Druid & Definition Roundup I just want to thank all the Zu owners for their appraisals of Def4 and other Zu speakers. After being w/o a system of any kind for a long time I decided to jump in.I just hooked up the Def4s for a few days. I'm having some wiring/ panel work done... | |
| Audio Desk Record Cleaner-Anyone buy one yet Anyone use the Ultrasonic V8? It doesn't dry the records but at $1500 is quite a bit less expensive. Also cleans up to 8 LPs at a time. I talked to David who manufactures. I will also pre clean with a brush then the ultrasonic. I have quite a few ... | |
| Preamps with balanced ins/outs and remote I understand the Zesto Leto has an input transformer coupled with an output transformer. Is this a variation of balanced and does it retain the advantages of cables with respect to impedance? | |

| Surge protection, have you tried? Bill Wlhitlock has a great article/seminar from Jensen Transformers on surge protection and niose reduction. Real eye opener. He recommends SurgeX as it doesn't shunt the surges to ground but dissipates them. | |

| Duelund CAST silver a $50,000 Upgrade? Why not just bypass the crossovers in the speaker with an active crossover? | |

| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Thanks Lewm. Granted it's tough wading through all the claims. I think BAT will probably be my choice. Surely they're balanced. Just don't want to buy a tt and tonearm that's not compatible with the Maestro. I've been stumped on this but Harold's ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Fleib and Harold, thanks. I can spend 2-5 K, or whatever is necessary to get there. I guess my concern is, knowing that the cartridge-tonearm-headshell-tt is so important, I would like to make a solid choice in that regard.I prefer a traditional t... |
