| Problem with Rogue Medusa Amp (I need advice) Thanks for all this technical information, which may be the reason that the Pharaoh is a better match for my Magus than the Medusa. But, I did try running the Pharaoh preamp through the Medusa amp and heard the same problem. I do a little more tro... | |
| Problem with Rogue Medusa Amp (I need advice) Thanks for your reply. I have the Egglestonworks original Rosa speakers. They sound great with the Pharaoh integrated, but not with the Medusa. Right now the Medusa has the JJ tubes that came with the amp, but I get the problem with any tubes I us... | |
| Rebuilding a Benz Ebony H: Who can do it? Stringreen, that is a great idea. I will email Garth right now.Thanks for suggesting it. | |
| Rebuilding a Benz Ebony H: Who can do it? I bought it used, so that would not apply. | |
| Trans Fi Terminator T3Pro - which cartridge Hello Sgunther,I have been seriously thinking of buying this arm. Can you state what it replaced and how it compares? Also, what turntable are you using it on? I have also been thinking of the Soundsmith cartridge. How do you like this combination... | |
| A couple of questions about testing 12AX7 tubes. Thanks for both of your answers. Yes, I do agree that the only way to know you have a good pair of tubes is to listen to them. The reason I test the tubes is to try get pairs of them that closely match for my phono section in my Magus preamp. I as... | |
| Riggle Vtaf w/Rega P9 & RB1000. Good idea or not? I thought of something in regards to using the Riggle Vtaf with the Rega RB1000 and P9. If one used the Cartridge Man Isolator between your cartridge and head shell of the arm, then the extra height of the Vtaf would be compensated for and there m... | |
| Experience w/ Trans-Fi Auio Terminator Tone Arm? This post has started out interesting right from the beginning. The purpose of this thread is simply to get more comments about this arm from people who have experience with it. I have done quite a bit of research into the Terminator arm so far, a... | |
| Verus Vs Rim Drive As I read this post I got to wondering if Johnjc's Rim drive was set up properly. It is my understanding that the VPI Rim drive can be fussy and needs to be set up just right. I have heard that the proper set up for the Rim Drive is that the drive... | |
| What is best VTA for Clearaudio Maestro Cartridge? Here is an update of my problems with getting my Clearaudio Maestro cartridge to sound good with my Super Scoutmaster Reference Turntable. As I have stated previously, because my Maestro Wood cartridge is so light in weight, I was not able to set ... | |
| What is best VTA for Clearaudio Maestro Cartridge? I have not tried the Mint alignment tool, if that is what you are referring to Stringreen. I am not currently using the anti-skate. What has your experience been with the Mint alignment tool compared to the VPI alignment tool? | |
| What is best VTA for Clearaudio Maestro Cartridge? Thanks for all your input regarding this cartridge situation. When I first put the Clearaudio Maestro cartridge on the 10.5 arm I was not even able to adjust the arm to have the proper 2.5 gram tracking weight, so I put the metal weight that comes... | |
| Is there a better table than S. Scoutmaster Ref ? I realy like the idea of a phono cable that can connect directly to the Lemo connection on the TT arm. One would just need something to securely hold the Lemo and RCA plug in place on the table. I wonder how much the extra connection from arm wire... | |
| Upgrades for Scoutmaster, In order of improvement? I am enjoying reading all the opinions on this thread and appreciate everyone's input. So far, after a bit of research and reading, the SDS, outer clamp, and upgraded platter all seem to get almost unanimous thumbs up. I am still not sure about th... | |

I am not familiar with this.Hello Redtop: I have been looking at the Aries, but the main reason for not getting it is its large size. Have you heard the differenc... |
