Anyone using two McIntosh 275's in bridged mono? Pepe I agree with you about 1 x MC2102 running out of puff. Try mono blocking the MC2102's in parallel or bridged 4ohms and you wil be blown away with the imporvement in every area. I have had the MC501's at home and 2 x MC2102's blows them out of... | |
Heaver grade vinyl vs Standard 180 & 200 gm vinyl must be the biggest marketing scam of all time originally started by Mobile Fidelity. Outside CD's of course :-) I have 1000's of standard 120gm vinyl that sounds wonderful. the weight or thickness of the vinyl has NOTHING ... | |
EAR 834P + Bent Audio Stepups = greatness? Zanth Looking at your cartridge I would have to say that the Koestu and EAR 834P deluxe is not a great match. This is mostly that the koestsu likes to see a low impedance and the 40ohm tap in the 834P is a little high for the Koestu. The 834P is a... | |
Sonus Faber Amati Homage speakers I heard the Power 3's many moons ago and they sounded pretty good. I have 2 x Mac MC2102's and they drive my Strad's very well which are a slightly hardder loan than the Amati's. I believe they should be a good match. | |
Raven AC one motor I used the Boston mat last night. I prefer the Millenium mat.With The Millenium there seems to better hight end extension and better bass flow. With the Boston, the treble is not as detailed and the upper mids is a little forward. Me with a lot of... | |

Question concerning the Mint Tractor No need to. It is about the thickness of an LP, so leave it the same.cheers | |
Mint Tractor Stringreen You will find a difference between the VPI protractor and the Mint or Wally tractor. This does not mean the VPI is incorrect, just different. the VPI is designed to have less distortions, smoother sound in the 2nd half of the LP. BTW, I... | |
Feickert analogue protractor....Owners impressions Speedy That is interesting re the Graham. does it still have the two parallel lines which spread out to the right and left at the top which you align your cantilever to. Are you saying there is now a dot or line at the end for the stylus( if this... | |
Feickert analogue protractor....Owners impressions What else does it need to do? ;-) Smart arse :-) Just trying to give a comparison between the Mint and the Wally and the Graham jig specific for Graham users. Sunnyboy has all ready said his cardboard rega gives the same resu7lt as the Mint. | |
Feickert analogue protractor....Owners impressions Yes, I received my Mint Lp protractor late last week. I guess my assessment is not as glowing as others who have posted. First up, it works and works well so no issues there. I am not sure about the others but my protractor has drops and marks ( ... | |
Raven AC one motor I also have a VPI HRX and the VPI outer ring definitely does not fit. I invested in a Orb ( OEM of air tight old model) LP flatener from Japan. Works well except on new Universal 180gm re-issues. | |
Raven AC one motor I use the Millenium mat that came with my TW raven AC-3 and it is very good. This is what Thomas recommends and uses I believe. I also have the Boston mat, but have not really used it yet. I will try it out and comment | |
Feickert analogue protractor....Owners impressions I have one of Yip's Mint protractors coming as well in the post as we speak. I am used the wally tractor on my old VPI JMW 12.5, however that is useless now that I have teh 12.7. Anyway, it will be interesting to see how the mint goes vs the Grah... |
