| Looking for a new phono preamp +1 on the Herron. Ran mine with an ART 9 and it worked out nicely. All Keith’s designs are dead quiet and super reliable. | |
| How does Donald Fagen do it? Actually, I think it is Cisco. | |
| How does Donald Fagen do it? I own it—sounds great best version I’ve heard. | |
| Let’s share the music that gives us the chills every time. Not sure which version of Wichita Lineman you are referring to but the one by Cassandra Wilson off "Belly of the Sun" is incredible--gives me the chills every time. | |
| How does Donald Fagen do it? +1 on Dr Wu—one of the best sax solos in rock! | |
| Suggest one obsure album we all should hear Barbara Keith’s self-title debut LP on Warner Brothers circa 1971. Classic singer-songwriter with an all star studio band and very good sound. | |
| Best tube preamplifier for under $15k People whose ears I trust swear by the LTA. I have their UL amp and it is simply amazing so I would not be surprised if the LTA is right up there with the best. I recently bought the new Herron VTSP 360 ESP. Fantastic linestage--significantly bett... | |

| Cartridge suggestions for SME Turntable @lalitk Glad to hear it. When I look at the design characteristics of the Hana and the Charisma I see some similarities so curious if that translates into their sonic qualities. "Balanced" is perhaps the word that most jumps to mind when I think o... | |
| Cartridge suggestions for SME Turntable I’d be interested to hear how the charisma sig one compares with your Hana. I’m in love with mine for sure! | |
| Warm, rich but detailed SS preamp (made you give up tubes) Why the aversion to tubes? | |
| Inexpensive Shipping to EU Thanks everyone. After all that running around trying different carriers the best price was to be had with USPS. It went out today. | |
| What did your system look like 30 years ago? Was in my Naim phase then--62/HiCap/140 driving Proac Tablettes. Had either a VPI HW-19 with an Alphason HRS-100 and a Garrott P-77 or a Townshend Rock with a Rega RB-300 and an AT MM cartridge--can't remember. Digital was probably a Rotel RCD-855... |
