Dynavector XV-1s vs. Transfiguration Temper w Syntax I would never call the XV-1s slow, dull and anemic. Like anything system balance is king and perhaps your choice in cartridges mirrors that balance. cheers | |
Dynavector XV-1S ---is it overkill for my system? I have heard the heed phono in my system. It is a good budget phono stage.You will not be getting anywhere near the performance potential of the XV-1s without a better phono stage.Cheers | |
Lyra Delos vs. Kleos? Tom, If you are getting great sound and synergy from your Delos - don't change, enjoy it. | |
Lyra Delos vs. Kleos? Thom, I notice you have the xv-1s. Compared to this cartridge, yes the Kleos is less extended in the upper frequencies. The xv-1 has more upper frequency air, and bass impact. Most other aspects of the Kleos is sota, especially in the midrange and... | |

Classe move to China Is Classe reducing the price of their equipment by 50% due to the lower cost structure of manufacturing in China? If not, nobody should be anything from Classe. They are just ripping off the customer. | |
MC versus MM. Which to choose. I agree that the vintage MM's are a lot of fun and some do sound really great, however most of them just sit in my draw not being played. I have the technics EPC1000 Mk4 and it is a great cartridge and that does get played. However, for the ultima... | |

Lyra Titan: Stylus broken during shipping I agree with JFrench. I have never seen a as new demo lyra cartridge that dirty around the the wasabi paper.If it was packed in the original packing with stylus guard, I cannot see how the stylus couls snap. Regardless the stylus should be in the ... | |

Review: Wilson Audio Grand Slamm Speaker Excellent stuff LloydGreat to hear you thoroughly enjoying the X-1's.I hope to one day be able to play Nirvana's - come as you are LOUD :-) | |
Sad news for VPI - from their Facebook page... Very sad news. All my thoughts are with family.I always received the best of customer service from Mike, Sheila and Harry, always with that New Yorker directness :-) | |
Ortofon Silver Meister SPU The SPU definately likes a SUT in frontI own the Verto and it is a very good match with the SPU'sCheers | |
Conqueror 3c with a Shilabe, Skala or XV-1S? Depends on what you want. If your system all ready has a lot of life and drive, the Shilabe will work. The dyna XV-1s will have drive and life with very good extension. I have not heard the Skala, however the Kleos compared to the XV-1 s will be a... |
