Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Nandric,DITTO!I am still being "moderated" and cannot find out why. Posting is not any good with someone, I won't use the word Fascist, looking over your shoulder. Don't care to comment on my comparison of the Acutex 320 STR vs, A&R P77 with J...

Hi Raul,Cannot speak freely, I fear I am still being "moderated". However, I received an e-mail that the Oppo BDP-105 is now available. Should receive my Jico SAS stylus for the A&R P77 any day now. I am excited but worried that the "moderator...

Dear Nandric,Thanks for being a good sport about my other post, I was trying to write qua humorist rather than qua asshole; just poking a little fun at the propensity you have to pepper your posts with bits of Latin and legalese. Hope no offense w...

Hello All,What's up with "pending moderator approval" that just started? Have I been singled out or is this for everyone's posts? Even paranoids have can real enemies.John

Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Raul,I bought my first Oppo as a dedicated DVD-A player because my modified SonyES CD-SACD unit could not play them.The high-end Oppos (95 and 105) have much modified and improved DACs and analog output stages compared to the standard 103.In ...
