| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Raul. My mistake, I was referring to the Akiva but had all the spelling incorrect :-) I wonder what the new Kandid sounds like? | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Raul. Nice to see you liking the Arkiva. have you heard the current Lyra cartridges? Like most things, everyone has opinions. Stereoplay magazine has the Lyra Delos slightly better sounding than the Arkiv and at close to 35% cost of a new Arkiv... | |
| SUT decision: Ortofon Verto vs Ortofon STA6600L Not sure Pani. The Verto is very good. I have one that I am not using, so if interested let me knowCheers | |
| What is the Phono stage you have finished with? I have added a Pass XP-25 to my TW Acustik phono stage. This now gives me great flexibility depending on cartridge and mood. I have no great desire to listen to anything else.Best of both worlds with ss and tube.Cheers | |
| Pass Labs XONO's hum sound Hi LewWash your mouth out. Do you really think Nelson Pass would allow switch mode power supplies on any piece of equipment that bears his name. | |
| Rhea vs Pass XP-15 Hi PeterI have my xp-25 and xp-20 power supplies like you off to the side. Nice and quiet. | |
| Rhea vs Pass XP-15 Hi Peter.I used to own the Xono and it is a great phono. Differences between xp15 and xp25 was more realistic and musically satisfying in every music cliche, depth, soundstage, extension, focus etc a c. Most obvious is the sense of urgency or vibr... | |
| Pass Labs XONO's hum sound Same issue with the xp-25. Friggin super sensitive to placement. The Xono is no fussy compared to the xp-25. The pass phono's hate being close to large tube power supplies. | |
| Rhea vs Pass XP-15 I own the xp-25 and have listened to the xp-15 for a couple of weeks at home. The xp-25 is comfortably better sounding than the xp-15. | |

| Why will no other turntable beat the EMT 927? Timeltelthe Exclusive P3 is not a good table, it is a great table :-)PL70 is only loosely related. P3 more controlled, refined and transparent.cheers | |
| Conrad Johnson ET-3 vs Premier 10/14 ? My friend sold his Shindo for the ET-3. He now has the et-5If you can find a used prem16 IMO and that would be sensational for the price. Warmth, extension, musicality, it has it all.Cheers | |
| Com'on...confess.......... Sometime Anywhere, great album. I have the vinyl. Reasonably easy to get thou, but getting expensive due mainly that it was released in 1994, 7 copies are available now from discogs starting at $50Their last album was #23 in 2009. I have that on v... | |
| Similar sounding of Lyra cartridge ? Dynavector, Shelter and Koetsu sound nothing like Lyra.Of the cartridges I own, the Denon DL-S1 sounds somewhat similar.Agree with Marak, the Lyra delos would be a great cart to buy to understand the Lyra Sound. |
