| Goodbye Everyone Best of luck, Elliott! I too loathe hospitals, which is ironic. A necessary evil. | |
| cleaning gritty surface noise on LPs I'd be a bit suspicious about all those LAST products too. @mijostyn I must disagree with you in your blanket condemnation of ultrasonic cleaning. If used wisely, it certainly improves on a vacuum RCM, and by wisely I mean addressing the issue yo... | |
| Curious Why Benz Micro Slid Into Obscurity I was very surprised to do a head to head comparison of the LP-S with the London Decca Reference. The Decca has been finally de-throned! So the LP-S is now on the SME V, and the Cadenza Mono is on the IV. I couldn't resist, and sent the Ruby 3 off... | |
| Ultrasonic cleaning I use both a Loricraft and a Degritter. If I had to keep only one, it would be the former, as I think by itself it does more than the Degritter by itself. Together, I think I get the best of both worlds. | |

| Have you asked yourself this question? No. | |

And if the avoidance of surface noise is the prime consideration, then proper record cleaning is the sine qua non. As for satisfying MC sound w... | |
| Need help-Looking for A New MC cartridge If you have a cartridge you love, getting it retipped is the cheapest way to continue being happy. I use VAS. | |
| Still looking for a new Moving Coil Cartridge If surface noise is the issue, clean the records rather than buy a new cartridge! | |
| Absolute Monster SAM Turntable Fancy looks and cheap price. As for extra tonearms, I can recommend acoustand tonearm pods that can be made to measure either for sitting on a turntable or on your turntable stand. They are very heavy and come with spikes, so solidity is a given. ... | |
| Relaxing Records for Better Sound - Using the AFI FLAT Many years ago I bought the first iteration of the Vinyl Flat and Groovy Pouch. I have had about half a dozen unplayable records (I'm not really interested in treating minor warps where the record still plays. Heresy to some, but there we are. Rau... | |
