| Top Choices Under 2K Dac and Transport Thanks for the input. Limitations are those imposed by the client. I have personally had the Classe .5 CDP and really liked that unit, not the problematic Philips 12.4 CDM used in it. | |
| Review: Musical Fidelity X-RAY CD Player This was a UK made unit. I have not been thrilled with some of the off shore results of MF product. It is my hope that they will return to UK based manufacturing, and very soon. A customer of mine has a MF v3 and he is thrilled with the unit. So i... | |
| Review: Denon DL-160 Cartridge If you use the small spacer,that is included with the DL 160,this puts the DL 160 VTA correct without using the Rega tone arm spacers with the Rega RB 300 tone arm.Follow the Denon installation directions and place the small Denon spacer on top of... | |
| Review: Musical Fidelity X-RAY CD Player I am not sure what the warranty was on the Original X-Ray when new. This unit has been replaced in the Musical Fidelity line up with the X-Ray v3 and the v3 has been replaced with the v8.If searching for the original X-Ray, the subject of this rev... | |
| Review: Alon Model I Speaker I drove 600 miles round trip to get the Alons I have. Would drive that far again, if need another pair. For me they are that special to go after. Unless have original shipping cartons in good condition, very risky to ship. | |
| Review: Alon Model I Speaker I have powered these with a Pass Labs Aleph 3, which is 30 WRMS per side into 8 ohms, with zero problem. Not to earth shaking levels mind you, but loud enough for the dog to run for cover. Although Alon recommends a minimum of 50 WRMS per side the... | |

| Review: Denon DL-110 Cartridge The OC9 stylus is very similiar to the AT8008. If you don't like the AT 8008, then you probably won't like the OC 9.Keep in mind that the Denon DL 110 takes about 50 or so hours to break in and develop its signature. Don't really evaluate till it ... | |
| Review: Denon DL-110 Cartridge There is a trade off in tracking force and wear on the LP. The Shibata,micro ridge and Fritz Gyer track at lower VTF than the ellipitcal and conical. However with that being said I have never worn out a LP by playing it. And I have been in this ho... | |
| Review: Denon DL-110 Cartridge Various stylus tips such as shibata,micro ridge and Fritz Gyer get further into the groove of the LP than an ellipitcal or conical stylus. While the Shibata, micro ridge and Fritz Gyer reproduce some stellar sonics, unless the record is absolutely... | |
| Review: Denon DL-110 Cartridge With your listening taste and vinyl sources. My opinion is go with the DL 110 or DL 160. The 103R I have found works better with Jazz and Classical. Another choice would be the Audio Technica OC9 Moving Coil cartridge. New they run about $300.00. ... | |
| Review: Musical Fidelity SACD/CD KW CD Player It seems that some of the Musical Fidelity player share this trait. To get the sound tailored to your liking you are going to have to experiment with various interconnects and power cords. Although on the power cord I eventually returned to the st... | |
