| Carts that sound like a Koetsu Doug,With my Great Northen Modified ARC SP-14(Sans Xformer, Raul) and Moscode 401HR transient attack is excellent. The next time you get a chance to listen to a Koetsu try it with Reference Recordings "First Takes" Jazz Series RR-6 w/Andrei Kitaev... | |
| Carts that sound like a Koetsu Doug I have no current reference for your current electronics. I beleive you were a former cj owner. So was I. My curret change of electronics is to try to get that leading edge right.In some ways I agree with you. I don't hate the sound of rounde... | |
| Carts that sound like a Koetsu "OTOH, the 901 on a Schroeder Ref sings like a Koetsu, but without that rounding and gentling of transients that Koetsu lovers love."That's quite a mouthful in a short statement. I don't like the rounding of transients. I've talked a lot about the... | |

| Baltimore Area Audiogoners--Help Needed I have the VPI Aries 2/sme iv. I found the setup to be about the arm and cartridge. Once I screwed in the armboard it was just about making fine adjustments to the arm. With a dedicated arm yours should be easier. | |
| Flat speaker cable River Cable has Synergy Eight and Six. I have not checked but the additonal cost for long runs is usually very reasonable. I will be making a purchase soon for my subs.www.rivercable.com | |
| Talon repair parts etc One good thing about the high end audio industry is that the owner of the company usually has a personal relationship with his customers. When they go out of business they don't like leaving the customers "up the creek without a paddle."Start with... | |
| She's on to me well at least she said "do we..."This indicates a willingness to be a part of your hobby. I used to upgrade with the same brand so it looked the same. You realize of course you will get caught. Women are just more observant than us.In the future y... | |
| Can I clean my records manually? We are all ignorant to 99.99% of the worlds knowledge. That's why we need Audiogon and the internet. | |
| Can I clean my records manually? Gadfly it's nice for you to see things on the inside of your eyelids. It saves money on cable and plasma tv. Then you will have money for your vpi. I don't know how much money you can commit to record cleaning but if you can't committ to vpi 16.5 ... | |
| Can I clean my records manually? I suppose you could use a broom to sweep your carpet. In the END you'll just be pushing the dirt around. Even if you shampoo you dislodge the dirt only to have a large portion of it seep back down on it.Let's supose your take home pay is 15.00/hou... |
