| Off center (not bent!) stylus? Regardless as to why, that cantilever is tweaked. Off center and slightly rotated. I’m with the others unfortunately, fix it or ditch it. | |
| Why do people care what their speaker wants? Popcorn anyone? I truly believe most people have zero idea what they want to hear. They think if they put x-a-d and p together it should equal amazing, and then don’t understand why it doesn’t, or they get lucky. This is a weird hobby, almost too ... | |
| looking for a Integrated amp $6,000 range Yep, the big Hegels are just excellent. Look into a Pass Int 60, used hits close to your price point. | |
| Modern amp solution for Magnepan 2.7QRs with bluetooth and phono stage interfaces? Don’t know your budget, but the Parasound HINT 6 hits all of those buttons and a very reasonable price point. | |

| What is the best speaker cable for Wilson Sabrina X? Oh boy... opened that can. Really, look at what you can afford, maybe find a vendor that has demo cables, The Cable Co is a good start and go from there. Used might be a good way to do some demo’s. Where did you buy your speakers? If a dealer, the... | |

| Question for Parasound Hint 6 owners Some equipment does get left on. But not the HINT. No reason to leave your HINT on. I think it even addresses this in the manual, if I’m not mistaken. What is hot? If you can rest your hand on it for a bit, that’s fine. If you can’t touch it, that... | |

| Integrated Amp Question for a Newbie to the Forum I think coming from tubes the Pass would more to your liking. Having said that, the Hegel is on the warm side as well.

Nelson Pass is an icon in the SS amplified circuit industry. But, I have space challenges so it took some time to figure out just what would w... | |
| Integrated Amp Question for a Newbie to the Forum The thing is, you are in the price territory where most of the amps listed are excellent overall.
