| Best SUT For Van Den Hul Crimson Stradivarius cartridge Another source to consider is Bob’s Devices. I have his Blue Sky 10 SUT that is switchable between 1:5 or 1:10. https://www.bobsdevices.com/product-page/sky-cinemag | |
| Anyone with experience with Spendor D9's? @jjss49 I would say the sound palette has moved slightly in that direction and they have an increased ability to reveal upstream issues compared to my experience with the classic Spendors. The D9s perform as a very neutral and slightly sweet tran... | |
| Anyone with experience with Spendor D9's? The D9s are very different than the more traditional “Spendor” sound you may be expecting, especially as you want to compare them to other British “usual suspects”. In the D7 and D9 Spendor was looking more to a neutral to slightly detailed presen... | |

| MC or MM + SUT? Your statement of “I have a few of each type” would lead me to look at the MM/MC phono preamp option. The premise for that choice would be the multiple MC cartridges and their individual requirements for optimal performance would not necessarily ... | |
| Miyajima MADAKE experience I agree with chaster on the metal tube since it is no longer included in the more recent packaging box. I have just received a new Origin Live Enterprise Mk4 tonearm and mounted my Madake. I use the screws included with the cartridge and place t... | |

| Why do I need an additional player device if I have a Roon nucleus and a dac? Your Roon Nucleus can serve the function of feeding directly to the Chord as long as it’s placed close enough to connect with a quality USB cable. You would need an additional player (render) only if you want to place the Nucleus away from your eq... | |

| Ayre QX-5 vs Lumin vs dCS Bartok I own the QX5/20 and have used it for a while as a Roon endpoint on my network with an i5 core in another room. Very nice sound much like @rossb describes. Recently added a Wolf Alpha 3SX server to my rack and connected it by USB through the Wol... | |
| Valve Amplification Company (VAC) "Vintage" preamplifier MKIII: how does it sound? The VAC “Vintage Mk3” and “Renaissance Mk3“ are not the same units or design (based on tube compliments). The Vintage was a few models prior to the Renaissance. VAC designs are very well engineered and musical. If you call the factory they will ... | |
| Best value record cleaner/cleaning system I used the VPI 16.5 with a three step process (enzyme, cleaner, ultra pure water rinse) for 15 years. This was when used albums joined my collection and employed a one step for new pressings. Once that was complete rarely was it revisited. The ma... |
