What power cord are TW Acustic TT owners using?
I think this money could be better spent on a better Dyna cartridge or others to show you what your Raven One and Ortofon RS-309 are capable of or other things like Mint Best tractor, etc. I use a Raven One but i don't put too much thought into po...

Promitheus Ref TVC and RWA Sig 30.2 Power Amp

TTWeights perip ring/platter/clamp on my Raven One
Hi Email,Thanks for your review. I have one of Larry's new clamp and has been entertaining the thought of having his copper platter for my Raven One/Phantom as the Micro Seiki's platters are getting harder to find.Any chance of a photo of your setup?

LMAO. I nearly splitted my side laughing. 
Raven Black Night
Sharing the same sentiment with Sonofjim here. It will be interesting to see the details and specifics later. 
Raven Black Night
It's not an advert as I see patients for a living, not selling hi-fi. Just an enthusuast who came across it on a UK forum and thought it might be of some interest here so i posted it. Not an advert for anyone. ;) 
Raven Black Night

One UK hi-fi community has had more experience with the Amadeus and the words from there is it managed to turn quite a few sceptics into believers despite the mdf material, wacky tonearm and preconceived biases. But i think it will have a much har...
