| If you could just pick one instrument that you think sounds best on your speakers The human voice. JM Reynaud Bliss Silvers. | |
| Thinking about a new, lower end CD Player Buy a preowned Linn Genki. Fabulous CDP. Balanced outputs and can be connected directly to an amplifier if you choose to bypass your preamp. Worried about the laser assembly crapping out on you? You can buy them on the cheap on ebay. Done. | |
| Advice on buying good CD player that will outperform my Primare cd31 If possible I’d recommend auditioning the Line Magnetic LM-515CD. This fabulous CDP just replaced my longtime spinner of choice the venerable Linn Ikemi. At $2450.00 MSRP I consider the 515 to be an incredible bargain. | |
| Replacement Linn LP12 mat Thank you mem2112 for the recommendation. As I discovered via the link the Plattamat 2 is no longer available because Analogue Innovation can no longer source that particular type of cork to continue production. But they do have some B-Stock mats ... | |
| Replacement Linn LP12 mat OK guys thanks for your replies and input. And to answer the question from audio_d: the reason that I don’t want to adjust the tonearm height is because I’m an Old Fart and I’ve always had 2 left thumbs. And now those thumbs are old too! There are... | |

| insurance and shipping with UPS @spin4cards How’s life treating you in that parallel universe that you’re living in? You should probably cancel your auto insurance while you’re at it. Total waste of money. | |
| insurance and shipping with UPS Glad to hear that UPS finally paid the claim. Fwiw neither UPS nor Fedex Ground provides insurance per se like the OP mentioned. The Declared Value fee that they use is to determine maximum liability in case of a necessary payout in the event of t... | |
| How much should a person spend to get a decent power conditioner? @atmasphereQuote: "The best of them is the PS regenerator, which really can deliver a proper sine wave". Possibly true unless like me you were one of the unfortunate souls who bought a PS Audio Power Plant Premier when they first came onto the mar... | |
| Notable very small loudspeaker companies (other than Tekton!) JM Reynaud of France. Only 5 dealers in N. America. The factory in Barbezieux produces around 500 pairs per year. Unfortunately because of the limited distribution this speaker line is one of the best-kept secrets in all of high-end audio. Seek t... | |
