| Inexpensive Phono Cables Recommendations Hm...Something tells me replacing his $6000 PH-7 with something that will allow a balanced cable run is going to exceed $400. | |
| Nirvana pressings I've been thinking of picking up the Bernie Grundman-mastered reissues put out by ORG, but I haven't. My only other ORG record(TV on the Radio's "Return to Cookie Mountain") is great. Great sonics, great pressing. I think that's mastered by Chris ... | |
| Volex cables - No longer belden??? I bought a couple of Volex cords about 6 months ago. They're on my Mackie HR824's. I don't know how they compare to the older Volex cords, but they definitely made a small but noticeable improvement in sound over the stock cords. This was my first... | |

My guess is that it's just a defect in the way the dots were placed on the platter or something like that, and that the table runs at a constant speed. I can't hear any pitch wob... | |
| Cart not parallel after Mint LP alignment? in case more reassurance is needed, I am hereby agreeing with Vinyladdict, Lewm, and Dougdeacon. If all you care about is getting the cartridge square with the headshell, you could have used the plastic jig that came with the Technics and saved a ... | |
| Classics Clarity Vinyl I have the "Somethin Else" Mono 45rpm set on Clarity. It's the only Classic record I have that sounds perfect. No noise, no pops. Beautiful. But the other six I've had(black vinyl 200g) range from "listenable but not really acceptable" to "complet... | |
| MM Cartridge recommendation needed There are a couple of people over at vinyl asylum who love the Jico SAS-MM1 on their Technics. One of them was saying it betters both his AT440mla and his AT150MLX, that it tracks as well or better and sounds smoother/more natural. And more dynami... |
