| Looking for a great arm that is low maintenence You know Sirspeedy, sometimes with your obfuscations you come across like a politician. I tend to be upfront with my comments. The fact is that you have never heard the Schroeder but perhaps the Phantom (which you claimed sounded great); yet you... | |
| Looking for a great arm that is low maintenence Sir Speedy, there you go again. I disagree with your characterization of the Phantom as MASSIVE. The fact is my Helikon is 8 grams with reasonably high compliance and it sounds wonderful in the clutches of the Phantom. I hate to repeat myself, but... | |
| Looking for a great arm that is low maintenence The Graham Phantom is a superb tonearm. It should be on your short list of possible tonearms. | |

| Schroeder arms: order of merit? I am getting a little tired of this love fest fealty; regarding the Schroeder tone arm. I suppose they are excellent products. But for me it is a "turn off" for the main US vendor as well as the manufacturer to be constantly responding to commen... | |

| Audio Research vt100mkll question Borg:If the input tubes are not properly balanced and adjusted you will not be able to adjust the output tubes to the specified 130 mV.I would first re-checek the input tubes before shipping off the VT100 for repairs. | |
| Delphi And SME Tonearms Oracle's recommendation for the Graham Phantom was:Left Front: Yellow left rear: Red Right: Blue I was able to balance the table suspension, perfectly, with this combination.Why not call Oracle? | |
| Delphi And SME Tonearms I had the same issue after upgrading to a Graham Phantom tonearm on my Oracle Delphi MKV.I emailed Oracle and they recommended the appropriate spring color combination. | |
| The Schroeder has arrived Sirspeedy:It was never my intent to obtain your home address. I was simply interested in finding out if there were any audiophile clubs/groups in my neck of the woods. By the way, I spent most of my formative years in BrooklynGeorge | |
| Do you think you need a subwoofer? I am using a stereo pair of Sunfire Signature subs with my MG3.5 which is used full range and is bi-amped using a Marchand XM126s electronic xover. I have been able to obtain seamless integration of the subs with the maggies after many weeks of ex... | |
