Why Use Aluminum for a TT Platter? The higher end aluminum tables typically use aluminum alloys to improve rigidity, increase density, etc., over "regular" aluminum. | |
Has anyone switched from Class AB/A to Class D? Was it better? Was it worse? I made the switch from A to A/B and finally Class D (AGD) and not looking back! | |
Class d amplification +1 on AGD (Duets) and they are upgradable as the tech improves! I use them on DeVore Super Nines. | |
Mods to Primaluna Evo400 preamp Talk to Kevin at Upscale Audio...I'm sure he would be more than happy to walk you through some mods. ; ) | |
Audioquest Water interconnects The AQ Water ICs have been replaced by a new line and most places are selling Water ICs at a discount. I had them and liked them on a digital tuner/streamer. | |

Tube Pre/ Class D Amp - Who has done it? ADG Duets fronted by a Ayon Audio CD-35 pre/CD player and I love this combo! Speakers are DeVore Super Nines. | |

Hana Umami Red review @hotei So, at what price point do you think a cartridge should be inspected,if at all? It may come as surprise, but some cartridges may come misaligned from the factory due to QC lapses. | |
Hana Umami Red review 2nd having JR @ Wally Tools examine your cart...not cheap but he does a very thorough inspection and will make a shim for you if needed! I understand his new brass shims are even better than the original (resin?) shims. | |
Analogue front end. You want more weight, scale and dynamics.Where do you start upgrading? Start with a high mass turntable and you will get the weight, scale and dynamics! | |
Veritas Cables a new brand that I found If you order the Aeris or Praesto in a shorter length (3') make sure it will fit your components. It is quite stiff! I just received a 3' Aeris and I had to really twist hard on it to fit into the iec plug into my tuner/streamer. The ground pin a... |
