if I buy an ultrasonic cleaner for my records will I be able to hear the difference?
Someone said that you don't want to clean records with ultrasonic more than once or maybe twice, that it does something bad to the vinyl.Can anyone confirm ? 
Upgrading form Pass integrated amplifier to a better one
Finally, Gryphon is getting wider recognition, though in some circles especially in Europe and Asia it has been very well known.Anyone compared more or less directly Diablo 300 and Ypsilon Phaethon ? 
Store auditioning and then buying on-line from others. How do you feel about it ?
Yeah, I myself wanted to do it many times and still do but never did. Zoroaster says no. 
HAVE ALL SALES STOPPED ON AUDIOGON ???
If prices went too low it would eventually destroy the commerce, wouldn’t it ? Or at the very least would greatly transform it.If I wanted to sell, say, my Nottingham turntable/tonearm I would not sell it below certain point unless I needed money ...

Whatever else might contribute, I too think that the pool of audiophiles is shrinking. But that's not only regarding serious music reproduction, some other pools are shrinking as well. I am not optimistic. 
If cost was no factor, what system would you build as your main audio system?
Dream set-up ?front end - Studer deck. And a lot of master dubs.amps - Ypsilon, Gryphon, Lamm or Wavac.speakers - no idea, I would listen to everything I couldcables - depends on the above, most likely Purist Audio.Very simple and very expensive.

Karma screws everyone in different ways. No escape. 
New to this. How do I stack my stuff?
The sound must be very alive even if it is not exactly pure. To have both you would need a complicated and expensive set-up. Some swear by active K Minus and Herzan platforms. I think Whart has the former under his turntable.

When I had my belt drive CEC cd player in the system Vibrapods without cones worked okay but Boston Audio graphite tune blocks were better in every respect. I use a combination of a 3" thick maple block and Boston Audio tune blocks under my Nottin...

Inna is here. Yes, Whart is correct, more information and a little more natural sound overall. As for the noise, almost no difference, but the record I sent to him was already very clean. It was a Cielo e Terra album by Al Di Meola, acoustic guita... 
Jazz for aficionados
All the music of this kind has been written and played, and rewritten and replayed. You can't do better or even often not worse. We need new music, a breakthrough, at least comparable to Miles's and McLaughlin's seventies.I agree with the thought ... 
What time do you wear?
Well, watched many videos on youtube, don’t have impressions in person yet.Classic Breitlings look like vintage airplane parts you can drive nails with. Transocean is nice but too nice and incomplete design for my taste. Navytimer looks good but w... 
What time do you wear?
Whart,Yeah, I have been reading but not posting, just not much to say. Besides, as you can see, kids need new shoes which means I am completely out of audiophile funds. I myself would probably go with certified used watch, but someone says no way ... 
What time do you wear?
Stringreen, That's a pretty good reliability if you ask me. Yeah, I know, there are places, including in New York City, where you can have it fixed for much less than at the factory. However, I would be buying new with five or six year warranty. O... 
What time do you wear?
To clarify. The person this gift is intended for is not at all a watch aficionado, but he appreciates fine things and he does need good watch for decades to come. Just one watch.
