Garrard 301 motor and rumble
A year later and I am all caught up on this thread- amazing the twists and turns an audio forum takes.  Well...my issue persists and with the additional time, I deduce that its the motor sending vibration up the shaft and to the pulley where it i... 
new Ortofon TA 110 or Vintage SAEC 308L
I suspect they both match based on mass. The SAEC is a heavy arm and while I don't know the mass of the ta110, it was reviewed with a Cadenza Bronze which I assume has the same mass as the blue that I have. Perhaps I am being sucked into the audio... 
Considering selling my restored Garrard 301
looks nice but transmits energy- I have been told the layers of ply will yield better results. Had the cadence retipped by SS. Love the outcome.   I suspect I will keep it as I hate shipping tables and push for a professionally built plinth. I w... 
Considering selling my restored Garrard 301
Jim Cambell did the restore for me as I live east coast- the deck was original owner and other than a single dust bunny, it is chip and scratch free (no paint needed. I had Jim do a top to bottom restore. The arm came in the original box. I bought... 
What's happened to the used high end market recently?? Sales are tough....:0(
I've been a member for many years and have sold and bought a decent amount of gear under this handle. That said and while I appreciate the polish that the publisher has made to the site, people and dealers who now see this as a new retail store ha...

I love all the responses. I sit there and try to listen to music. I have heard bad, good and great. I am drawn into all the hype just like everyone else who is into gear and music.BTW- I said I had SACD for several years- listened to the 20 discs ... 
What's the best Dac for the money
Your question is as subjective as peoples statements- your on a used audio site where people save a ton of bucks by buying well treated and broken in gear. Most times, we buy blind as we do not get the luxury of testing out product in our own audi...

HT amp for music- please help
I like the build of ATI and know they are involved in the brands you mentioned. I have "read" that they can be a little firm on top, but that is as much to do with system makeup. I don't own an AVR and cant imagine ever buying one. I have had an E...
