| Phono stage for Denon DL103R I put the DL-103 on the JMW arm and conducted the resonance test on the High-Fi News Test LP. I obtained the following results: 9-11 hz on the lateral, and 10-11hz on the vertical. This seems to be within the acceptable range. The DLl-103R has dif... | |
| Phono stage for Denon DL103R I was able to contact Musical Fidelity and I was given the following information: The gain on the XLPSv3 is 52db MM and 68db MC. Given this info, will the cartridges in question work well with the phono preamp? | |
| Phono stage for Denon DL103R Thanks to all for your responses. Interesting dilemma... I am gathering from the info you have given me that even though the carts I have mentioned are good they are only as good as they can be with higher mass tonearms? A Moving magnet cart which... | |
| Anyone have Legacy speakers these days? I have a pair of 20/20's for close to a year now and I have to say I am satisfied with their performance. In the past I remember visiting hi end audio shops and being totally bowled over by the sound. Now...I listen and compare. I've heard better ... | |

| Belt slipping off Scout I had a similar problem with mine when I first installed it. Make sure there is no twist as you place it around the platter. If you roll it down it may create this problem. Try to stretch it around without contacting the platter. This worked for me. | |
| VPI Scout Placement Gingko Cloud seems like a very simple design and easy to copy. I wonder what the difference between the balls they use and racquet balls might be??? The acrylic is not visually distracting IMHO.I may convince the Mrs. to allow something like this ... | |
| VPI Scout Placement Faugusta,as much as I appreciate your input and the detail of your remedy for my isolation problem. I don't think my better half would appreciate my replacing her coffee table with two crates of records and a series of boards to lay across them. S... | |
| VPI Scout Placement Thanks for all the ideas. The chains and suspesion sounded kind of cool until the Mrs. looked over my shoulder at the thread. I have a crawl place so leveling is an issue as far as floor jacks are concerned. It seems I need to move into a more aud... | |
