| SED Winged C el34. Help Excellent tube if it is the one manufactured in St. Peterburg. New ones are only labeled as Winged "C". I have used a quad for over two years without a problem and they hold a good solid bias. The Tube Store is a great source or Jim McShane is ano... | |

| which one would you prefer ayon1 or lector7 I have not heard the Ayon but my lector has a beautiful analog like presentation that places in above all the players that have preceded it (Shanling, Marantz). The soundstage is very wide and distinct allowing not only for the placement of indivi... | |
| Best cart for a Michell Gyro SE/Tecnoarm combo? I am using the Blackbird on an Origin Live table with a modified RB300 at this time and I really like the detail and presentation. I found the Blackbird, even though it is a HOMC, works well at a loading of 22K ohms as apposed to the advertised 47... | |
| Sensible upgrade from Denon DL160 Totally agree with Phill. I ran a DL-160 through a load lower than the 47K and it improved most of the issues you are concerned about. I found 22K to work very well for the DL-160 and subsequently for the Sumiko Blackbird(a cartridge that may be w... | |

| Getting back into digital. Please help. Consider the Lector line. My 0.6 model has a true tube (12AT7) output not just a tube buffer and gives a near analog presentation for a resonable cost. It is not bright and forward but slightly dark and dynamic with very good detail. | |
| Turntable recommendations under $1500 Origin Live Aurora MK2 - about $1350 (new)and then add your own arm. I am using a modified RB300 and Sumiko Blackbird with mine and it is dead quiet. If you can find one used it would be an even better deal but they seam to be rare on the used mar... | |
| Billy Cobham's Spectrum The original pressing is dynamic and much superior to the CD release. I have had the original since the late 70s and still am amazed by it. Great addition to any collection. | |
| Cartridge Alignment HELP You are correct in that some of the two point protractors require you to move them after getting a tentative alignement at the first point. The protractor you referance from enjoythemusic sould allow you to not move the protractor and the stylus t... | |

| Best cartridge for my setup? I totally agree with Mingles about the DL-160 though I have not listened to the 2M blue to be fair. For the price the performance is excellent. I have used both the DL-160 and the DL-110 in systems and was always impressed at their performance. | |
| Cartridge upgrade for Pro-Ject Debut 3/SB... The high output Denon Moving coils will work with your MM preamp input. The DL-110 or DL-160 are candidates for consideration. | |
| Looking for a universal remote Second on the Logitec Harmony remotes. The 1000 was very easy to program and the graphic interface makes control simple. Priced at about $500 for the remote and $100 for the RF optional receiver if needed. | |
| VPI hw19jr Audioquest PT-8 arm G-ring 1042 cart A comparison wold be very interesting to read. What cartrige were you using on the Technics and how did you like it? I would try the Denon DL160 at just under $200.00 |
