sbank, if you 'click' on the Poster's name (in blue at the top of their Posting) you will see a box with [Details, Posts, Discussions, This Discussion].If you click on 'Details' you will see their Virtual System (if they have one).That's how I kno...

Lew, there are many of us who have been 'hanging out' for photos and reviews of your 'fixed' Victor TT-101 hoot hoot..🐦 
Why the lack of Virtual System postings?
I tried it just as you described it but I got 'SPUhttp://i.imgur.com/EqIWoaY.jpg' and I just wanted the SPU just like you have the 'voila'...😎So I'm doing something wrongly....How do I keep the SPU in blue but without the hyperlink added to it? 
Why the lack of Virtual System postings?
So apparently the only way to become aware of posts by others to one’s own system thread is to look at it, and many people only seem to do that when they want to incorporate a change.Good point Al....I wasn't aware of that 'subscribe' link either.... 
Why the lack of Virtual System postings?
Ok,Ok I get the picture....You think I have too many cartridges and too many pictures on my Virtual System page....😩Sigh...So your really don't want to see the renowned 40 year old Ortofon SPU-AE Gold?http://i.imgur.com/EqIWoaY.jpghttp://i.imgur.c... 
Why the lack of Virtual System postings?
Haha...thanks hifiman 😎I sometimes wonder myself why I need all those cartridges and the answer is....I don't 😜‼️I've had mega-dollar LOMC cartridges but for the price of one of them, I can have 15 vintage MM cartridges and many of those 15 cartri...

Oh thanks...😎I wasn't really clear in my question.......When you click on the Recent Activity Link here, you get the latest postings on many of those Virtual Systems.Often there would be a dozen different systems every day which had additions to t... 
Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously?
Yes.....I wrapped Mu metal around the power supply of the Victor TT101 and the results mirror that of sampsa.No effect or better without.The metal screen/cover to the motor unit (when properly grounded) does the job it's supposed to do.... 
Best platter mat, especially for DD turntables
Indeed ddriveman... suede-side uphttp://i.imgur.com/UnMbyr3.jpgHere is the Micro Seiki CU180 platter mathttp://i.imgur.com/qEWvSHn.jpg 
Best platter mat, especially for DD turntables
Since you are reporting a profound improvement, the original design is definitely not good. This is not fine tuning, basically it's an effort to quite radically change the design. Would be better to start with the drawing board instead of patching... 
Best platter mat, especially for DD turntables
Wow....sampsa55 thank you for those Links.That trip through Japan with the sites, the systems, the horns and the exquisite food has given me such pleasure and a real 'high',,,👼🏼I hardly know where to go from that.....It shows that the discriminati... 
Best platter mat, especially for DD turntables
Interesting topic ddriveman....It's so true that different platter mats all sound differently on every turntable regardless of the drive system employed, so finding the one that sounds 'the best' is a labour of love....But one worth doing 😎🎼Having... 
Turntable sibilance
I think you should listen to Peter....Not only is he one of the world’s leading experts in cartridges....it’s his damn cartridge FFS.....🙈You’re an optimist to consider 2000 hours the norm for a stylus life expectancy. 1000 hours (as Peter says) i... 
Dynavector DV 505 anti-skating question
Because of its design.....being absolutely level is more critical with the 501, 505 and 507 arms than other pivoted tonearms as anti skate will be affected.These arms will also not work correctly on suspended turntables.Hopefully you are 'clear' i...
