It is 5 AM, Do you Know where Mikey Fremer is? Good question. It turns out that Mikey's "in heavy rotation" concept describes what I've done for years. I thought I had about 2k records.

Cars. What does the typical audiophile drive? 3 car, 2 person family with 2002 BMW M5 dinan Stage 3 and two 2004 Infiniti G-35's. One is a coupe and the other a 4-door sedan. Nothing compares to the Dinan M5. Trouble is I can afford doing a new Dinan M5 now that I'm retired. | |

Upgrade from TW Acustic Raven AC-3 to what? Getting back to the original question posed, why don't you try the new Basis Inspiration TT? It's their finest TT and it looks like a spectacular TT. Basis products have a great reputation for wonderful music reproduction.On the other hand, have y... | |
Basis vs.VPI I own a Basis 2500 Signature with a Graham Phantom arm and love that combination. If you can't do a home demo or listen to other peoples systems, then your are stuck to opinions here or reading magazine reviews. Reviewers have given the 2200, 2500... | |
Phono stages belong to which tier? I'm been running the Wavestream Kinetics phono stage and preamp for over a year and IMHO it is excellent. I ran a latest (at the time) Aesthetix Callisto and Io Signature each with two power supplies, NOS tubes, before changing to the Wavestream. ... | |
