| Gamut CD1 Mk.2: Anyone own or listened to it? I and a friend both owned this model.We both found it unreliable, disc reading issues.I ended up with SACD1000 and he went Esoteric. | |
| MG-1 Air Bearing Tonearm? Anyone experience it? Paul, do you use the damping trough?Also what cartridge are you using with it? | |
| ZYX Airy2-X-SB on Graham 2.2 Kurt,I tried both versions of the AIRY3, and preferred the copper version. The silver can seduce by its ultra detail, but seemed unnatural to me, and brought attention to itself instead of the music. This on a Graham 2.2.I had also a Benz Ruby2 be... | |
| Who makes Beautiful / Attractive Speaker Cables? Magnan Signature are wire and carpet all in one! | |
| Review: Audiomod Modified: EMM Labs Phillips SACD 1000 Transport Its not clear to me where the mods don, the player, the DAC or both? | |
| Gallo reference /TAS vs Me Kalan, which SE do you have? MK1 (ti tweater), mk2(with revelator tweater) or mk3 (ie the latest)? | |
| Solid stylus cleaners: Extreme Phono vs. Onzow Zer I had a similar experience with extreme phono one. Zerodust works fine. | |

| High gain phono stage or K&K Audio Phono stage: lots of gain, phase and loading adjustments, and very competitive vs my IO with much less heat and real estate. | |
| Transformer stepup size yes, Raul, this corresponds with my experience so far. More lower frequency energy with the larger core designs gives more body to instruments. More satisfying overall. | |
| Transformer stepup size Gents: there has been a deviation from topic here I notice.Nevertheless, for info, let me tell you that I have owned many phono stages without stepup : Atmasphere MP-1, the Groove, Walker Reference and the Aethetix IO. I have also owned a few that... | |
| Transformer stepup size Thanks for the responses. But my question remains unanswered as to the technical merits of a much (4 to 5 times) larger design in terms of overall performance. My ears seem to detect a fuller, deeper in bass extension with the larger design. Moreo... | |
| Channel Imbalance 1. Does not show up with other sources, ie CD2. I use Graham/Benz RubySounds like I need to pay attention to azimuth. I do have a Graham az-1 but must use a mono recording and adjust Azimuth for lowest volume. I have found this tough to do, perhap... | |
| Purist Audio : Venustas vs. Dominus? I am interested in a Purist speaker cable now that I have been very impressed with the Colossus interconnect I picked up. Was Proteus a higher grade cable versus Colossus in the previous lineup? Proteus cables seem to be fetching a higher price on... | |
| TAS Total Victory Review I actually did not read the review as I have not received the issue yet. Two people who did, misinformed me obviously. Since I have been impressed by my brief encounters with this design in the past, I was keen in getting a better sense from actua... |
