| What Cartridge Manufacturers Will Retip Their Moving Coil Cartridges For A Fee? None that I've heard of will do that. The most you can get is a discount on a new cartridge when returning the old one. | |
| Mac C33 preamp upgrade Send it to Audio Classics for any cap upgrades - but be prepared to spend $$$! Otherwise leave it alone if it still works and enjoy it! | |
| What do you hear? Plenty of people like Cerwin Vega speakers and Crown Power Drive amps! De gustibus non est disputandum! | |
| Dynaudio 20XD amp module failure Bring the amp module to a nearby electronic repair service. | |
| What do you hear? Sound memory only lasts a second. This makes listening comparisons problematic.. The louder component always sounds better. An old trick used by salesmen selling speakers. |
