| I am considering the Grado Statement cartridge Dave,I have the Van den Hul MC Two which is the middle of the line for VdH. It is relatively high output for a MC (2.25mV), so it is an easy input for my Ayre K-1xe phono stage/preamp. Sounds great, but the Lyras are considerably better. Call Mike... | |
| I am considering the Grado Statement cartridge I would make sure that the Grado sound is what I am looking for before buying a Statement. I found over the years that moving up in the Grado line buys more refinement and better detail, but the basic sound stays the same. I never owned the Statem... | |

| Krell S300i advice needed? Consider a REL sub-base system. They use a high level output from your amp's speaker terminals to get the signal, so this would be perfect with the 300i. This cable is included with the REL but aftermarket cables for the REL are available and are ... | |
| Is Michael Wolff still making power cord? You might want to try one of the Synergistic Research Tesla power cords. They are extraordinary IMO.Merry Christmas!! | |
| System worthy of XLR IC? If so, any recs? People responding to this type of post need to understand the difference between "fully differentially balanced" topography of top-flight equipment and the XLR "balanced" outputs of lesser gear, which has single-ended topography that is converted ... | |
| Is Michael Wolff still making power cord? I saw a post or ad or something in the past year from Michael Wolff saying he was packing it in and would no longer be building or selling power cords.Too bad, I had heard and read good things about his cords and had hoped to try them. I do see th... | |
| Pure Class A shootout "The Krell shouldn't be in the list with all the other fine amps listed and the Pass has a metalic glare at the top end."Pure crap. The Krell FPB series are some of the finest amps ever built. Pass .5 series are also among the best sounding amps a... | |
| What happens if I plugged a 20amp unit..15amp outl It's not just about tripping the breaker. With a big Krell, you need to ensure that input current is not constrained to get the best performance out of it, especially when driving difficult loads at higher volumes (I haved owned a FPB-600C driving... | |
| Experience with high end fuses???? Hifitime,"DLcockrum,don't assume I make statements without hearing something first."Prove it. Name the aftermarket fuses (and powercords for that matter) that you have auditioned in your system and give your listening impressions specific to those... | |

| I'm convinced: my Power Conditioner was ruining... Fair enough, Knownothing. Well said.Merry Christmas! | |
| Who has dumped the power conditioner? I've got to weigh in on the Powercell 10SE as I purchased one two months ago and feel that I have now passed the "I liked it at first but took it out because it..." phase (which occured with the Furman IT-Reference 20i I sold a while back).Absolut... | |
| Experience with high end fuses???? Hifitime,The HiFi tuning fuses you refer too are the entry level aftermarket fuses and they are both sonically inferior to and of lower construction quality than the IsoCleans and Furutechs. I did not and do not recommend them."The others look the... | |
| Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments? Update on G-MPC with Accelerator and Precision Reference ICs:I left the fifth Galileo MPC plugged up all week and did some extensive listening today with and without the G-MPC on the Accelerator ICs between preamp and amp. My initial impressions h... |
