Anti Cables Speaker Wire
Thanks guys. I checked the wiring and it is correct. Cyclonicman, I'm with you on the break in. Will stay with them for a while to see if the sound opens up. I've heard so much about the anti cables that I want to given them an honest shot. 
Anti Cables Speaker Wire
Thanks guys: Jeez, it never ends. I'm going to keep alternating the Monsters and Anti Cables for a while to see if they break in and start to sound better. Also, want to see if some source material sounds better with tne Anti's. I've got Morrow's ... 
Where to go from here
Hi Jb:I noticed a difference immediately when I put the Cary tube preamp in the chain. I love the analog sound I've got right now but not digital. I'm wondering if there is any way to make it sound "real". There are all these reviews in Audiophile... 
Where to go from here
Thanks guys:Advice regarding the Adcoms is something I have been thinking buy hoped that the Cary tube preamp would sort that out a bit. I'm not sure what DIYumas is or how to construct them. I looked at other tweak sites,even googled them. Do you... 
Where to go from here
Hi Mapman:Some of the technical stuff would be compression, etc. But, what I hear a lot of the time from cds sounds mechanical, like it is not quite human. Sometimes it is very bright sounding and uncomfortable. I guess the main thing I notice is ... 
Upgrade phono cartridge for Rega P3-24
Hi Pkubica:My Cary SP94/L phono section recommends a minimum output of 1.4mv. I will need a need a phono preamp, one I can trust will not compromise the Dorian. But, you know, if the Rega can handle it and the change really improves the sound, I'l... 
Upgrade phono cartridge for Rega P3-24
Hi No Money and Adam:Thanks. I was waiting to hear from those who had the Exact and who had switched from the Elys. Sounds like the Exact does substantially improve the P3-24. I'm going to check it out. I also love the Rega. For the money, it real... 
Upgrade phono cartridge for Rega P3-24
Thanks Cj:After I posted to you, I looked on Agon for Lyra. They sell really fast. I can get into a Clearaudio for $800 or $900. I'm going to look around, see if I can hear the cartridges somewhere (should be able to find something in NYC, I'm onl... 
Upgrade phono cartridge for Rega P3-24
Hello Pkubica:Thanks for the tip on the Lyra, Dorian and Argo. Mint tractor, huh? Ok, I'm off to go looking at the 2M, Lyras, Dorian, and Argo. 
Upgrade phono cartridge for Rega P3-24
Thanks CJ:I'm wondering if the Exact will be a significant upgrade from the Elys2. The 2M Black seems to be one that a lot of people choose for the P3-24. I've been checking out the Groovetracer subplatter but wasn't sure that it would make a diff... 
Rega P3-24 and Exact 2.....Enjoying the music
Hi Adam: I got my p3-24/elys II back in december and switched out the felt mat for a Herbie's about 2 months ago. The Herbie's really makes a difference. I also made an isolation platform for it with two solid wood shelves, dowel bit holes on each... 
Turntable Isolation
Ok, Johnnyb, I'm ordering the vibrapods today. And, I'm going out to get a few floorsavers and a couple of gels. I'll let you know how it works out. 
Turntable Isolation
I've got a 10' x 16' room, speakers at the end of the room, 2 feet from back wall, 8 feet apart (like Quad people recommend). Turntable is on a rack along the side wall, about half-way back. It is not ideal, but I don't have a way to move it to an... 
Turntable Isolation
Hi Macdad:I'll be happy to give the vibrapods a try; they are only $6 bucks each. The feet on the P3-24 are rubber with screws and can be easily removed, I think. So, let me make sure I've got this right: Your turntable has threaded brass cones, c... 
Turntable Isolation
Thanks Schipo. Just weighed the whole thing and it comes to 23 lbs. I need to take the center ball out and then add 17 lbs. Holy Moly! Have you experimented with this type of thing?
