Lyra Delos or Hana ML
Dont put a wood body cartridge on the REGA RB2000 Arm I have heard several cartridges on Rega P9/P10's including Lyra, Dynavector, Shelter & Benz. Wood bodied Benz Micro is an excellent match, except the low compliance high mass LPS series... 
Does anyone manufacture an alternative Linn Sondek belt pulley ?
Get rid of the Linn and get a Rega - less hassle. Linn's are for masochists who enjoy pain.  
Another turntable
Thanks for your answers and opinions.I didn’t think Origin Live could be that good. Interesting.I’m a bit surprised nobody talked about  Verdier or SME nor Brinkmann that are the more often talked about in this price range. I sold my Platine Ve... 
A new way of adjusting anti skate!
@nandric So you think if you lose an argument on an audio forum, then no-one will hire you as a lawyer. Perhaps some of your recommended reading on philosophy, reason and logic might need to be revisited.    
Changing Turntable to Balanced Output
@atmasphere  I've run similar lengths for microphone signals myself- with no rolloff. Its helpful to keep in mind that a properly set up balanced line system is also low impedance (600 Ohms is typical) and the low impedance aspect allows you to ...

Anyway you made ''retips'' as well ''rebuild'' + ''refreshment'' of carts superfluous by your discovery and praise of Denon 103 D for $ 280.  I never said this cartridge outperformed my Dynavector or any other cartridge. All I said was that ...

I have next to my Russian- also an American brother with whom I have daily correspondence (Don Griffith). His story you can probably deny or confirm. The story is that people posted their in Japan bought Koetsus direct to Garrott brothers for ... 
A new way of adjusting anti skate!
 I don't use anti skate with carts which can reach 60 microns tracking ability test.  Perhaps you could save money by asking a retipper to turn the old stylus around so you can wear the other side out before you put a new one in.

dover, imagine me being your visitor in N, Zeeland and you offering to me only an half glass of your excellent wine. That is how I feel with your info about origin of Replicant . Yes that is correct. Some our New Zealand red wines are world ... 
Replicant 100 stylus
They obviously started their ’’repair service’’ in UK but moved to Australia hoping for more success. In this sense they were his competitors so he refused to provide them with his PARATRACE styli. Unfortunately the audio forums are full of bs.... 
Changing Turntable to Balanced Output
@atmasphere  The input used an input transformer as well. This allowed the tape machine to have microphones a good 150 feet from the machine with no degradation of the mic signal.  Do you really believe this. My understanding is that any low s... 
A new way of adjusting anti skate!
I am not at all sure I am correct, but my best explanation is that in tracing the tortuous groove, the stylus is pulled along at a "speed" dependent upon the platter speed and the distance of the styus from the spindle. The ins and outs of the gr...

The Replicant styli are made in Ireland.  
Silver v Copper wire phono cable
@best-groove  From your emoji I assume you have very good teeth. Do you floss with silver wire as well.
