| Still looking for speakers in the 10-20,000 range I've been a Wilson fan, now on my third series - the as yet (IMHO) unsurpassed for apartment- sized listening, Sophia 3, powered by VAC PHI 300.1 and linked by Purist Provectus cable. I've never looked back. | |
| Wadia S7i not reading the contents of certain discs thanks so much - I just burned a cd-r and it plays perfectly. It's a relief to know that the laser mechanism is not at fault, which would mean another trek back to Audio Research, which replaced the transport about a year ago.-john | |
| Has anyone heard the Miyajima 'Snakewood' cartridge, TW Raven 10.5 Tonearmhttps://www.tw-acustic.de/ | |

| Has anyone heard the Miyajima 'Snakewood' cartridge, robyatt - now that my Snakewood has fully bloomed, I think I am not exaggerating when I say it is a musical instrument in its own right.

| Has anyone heard the Miyajima 'Snakewood' cartridge, ADDENDUM: Art Dudley just used the Snakewood Madake in his Capital Audio showroom - and listening to a 1974 Connoisseur Society recording of Moravec's Chopin last night, I could hear the timbre of the WOOD in his Baldwin piano - I never got tha... | |
| Is tonearm cable the most important cable in the system ? for me it's the cable between the phono SUT and preamp | |
| Has anyone heard the Miyajima 'Snakewood' cartridge, after sufficient hours for the Snakewood Madake to open into the KSW SUT, a play of the many Philips chamber works followed by the DGG tulips Karajan Rheingold convinces me I can live happily with this and my Shindo Giscours pre-amp for years ahea... | |

| Has anyone heard the Miyajima 'Snakewood' cartridge, Last night the Snakewood Madake opened even further, allowing me to occupy the space, even the height, of the recording venue of Solti's Don Carlo on London. Tonight I fed it through the Miyajima KSW SUT to achieve a 'rightness' of analog playbac... | |
