VTL ST-85 Repair
I had nothing but the best experience & very fast turnaround time getting service. Not only did they do the service but included a few free upgrades. I was blown away. VTL of past is something I never experienced. I had a compact 100 20 years ... 
Raven One Motor Noise Problem
Got you. Let us know how it works out 
Raven One Motor Noise Problem
Kennythekey,I just read your post. It sounds like you have your motor on the Stillpoints. The Stillpoints are to go only under the turntable. Please clarify. The motor should have adjustable feet that allow you to balance the motor perfectly and h... 
Coincident Eclipse vs Devore
I heard the Devores w. Shindo gear on In Living Stereo as well. I left highly unimpressed. I preferred the Verity speakers but not by much. Not sure which amp but 90% of me remembers it being the Cortese. It was paired with a few different Shindo ... 
Wilson Audio paint problems
krupski,Did you contact Wilson yourself yet? For me that is the big deal. What did they say to you. Not the dealer or a different dealer. 
Wilson Audio paint problems
Not to be a Wilson fan, but the custom paint color takes time. So it makes sense. I think the Wilson service has always been top notch. Too much negative talk here for no reason. Wilson has some of the best service in the industry and answer phone... 
Wilson Audio paint problems
I repainted my Watchdog Subwoofer a custom color. It came out beautiful and could not be happier. Why I say this is that it was done by a good car dealership & the old Wilson Paint was looking dull and had some markings. I great paint job will... 
Sophia II's and Pass Labs etc
Toffen,Please also listen to VTL if you can. Very good combination w. Wilson if you can do tubes. The other great combination will be VTL for preamp & Lamm for amp. For preamps the VTL 6.5 or 7.5/2For amps the 450 Signature, S400 or the Lamm M... 
Linn LP-12 compared to TW Acustic, SME, Nottingham
Having owned both the Nottingham Hyperspace & Raven AC, I have posted comments elsewhere. The Hyperspace is a very musical table. But it does have a sound. Mind you a beautiful sound. Black background and a little bit of a "large" image size w... 
ARMS for Simon Yorke S10
Simon Yorke almost always sounds best w. Simon Yorke's arm. Many have tried others but preferred the Yorke. It isn't easy to change cartridges as the Phantom or others but the new version has a removable armwand if I am correct. It should be a gre... 
CEC AMP530 or AMP53
I just read the review. For the price it seems like a steal. My big things is the single ended class A circuitry. I would imagine it is sweet. Funny, I just asked about it & an ad came on Agon today I think. I wonder when more equipment will b... 
CEC AMP530 or AMP53
I think it won some awards in Japan as well. And the retail price is quite low. 
Wyred4S or Belles for Usher Be718?
Indiesound,You won't like my answer. It is not going to be fair. I had to look at my pictures & go to the website to see what it in fact is. Top of the line MB500 amps. But it was a very large room. Maybe the 350a Reference will be fine. I don... 
Wyred4S or Belles for Usher Be718?
Guidocorona,Quite a few. I forget all the names but when I was at the German show many of the rooms were using Class D. Also a few at RMAF. At first I felt wow, this isn't bad. But as time wore on I found it was missing something. To sterile maybe... 
Wyred4S or Belles for Usher Be718?
I heard the Ushers demoed w. Belles equipment. It sounded wonderful. I would easily recommend it. I have heard several class D systems and they all sounded class D except from the Spectron Musician III se. This sounded different but had a signatur...
