| Lyra Dorian or Lyra Delos cartridge? WHOOPS! The DELOS is worth the extra cost. My apologies, not quite awake. | |
| Lyra Dorian or Lyra Delos cartridge? I have owned the Dorian, Argo and now the Delos.The Delos is better in every way...bass, resolution and especially detail. The above Lyras were mounted on a Linn Ittok, you may experience differing results on the VPI/Audioquest but again to me, Do... | |
| Well Tempered/ Stanalog gone? I received responses to emails within 24 hours of them being sent about a month ago. He sent me an owners manual in Word and responded to a question regarding an accessory shipment. | |
| maple platform for tt. I have owned a Planar 3 & P25 and now currently own a P5.In my years of experience with the Rega, I find that it works best on a light, rigid surface. I have tried a solid butchers block and in my opinion, it completely sucked the life out of ... | |
| The best tonearm for Lyra Helikon SL ? I'm running the same as Jfrech...Skala mounted on the latest Tri Planar and it is a great combination. I previously had the Skala on an Ekos mk2 and it astounded me as to how much of the Skala I wasn't hearing until I installed it on the Tri Planar. | |
| Best integrated to drive vandersteen 2c's I used the MF A300 with Vandy 1C's and 2CE Sigs with great results in a smaller room (11x12). Plenty of power and the A300 will give the Vandy's enough kick for rock, jazz, or whatever you listen to. | |
| Best Albums of 2008 on Vinyl I agree on the Black Mountain and Gutter Twins as your top 2, great music and superb transfers to vinyl. Both are recommended late night listens.I'd add this for something a little different: She & Him Vol. 1 - a nice pop-ish LP with great arr... | |
| Choosing Between 2 Turntables I am biased in my suggestion but I went with a Garrard 301 and Steve's plinth based on what I've read and seen. He previously sold me my current phono amp, Manley Steelhead, as well as provided me with great advice on tubes for the Steelhead.Going... | |

| Loricraft Record Cleaning Hello - I am receiving a Loricraft PRC-4 today when Mr. UPS arrives.What are some of the cleaning fluids others have used with this machine? Do you use the spray cleaner that comes with the unit? Do you manually scrub with the brush before using t... | |
| How much better is the Scoutmaster vs. Scout? I have owned both the Scout and the Scoutmaster. The Scoutmaster outshines the Scout in bass slam and detail retrieval. I currently own the Scoutmaster with ring clamp and HRX center weight. If you can afford the clamp and weight, they really make... | |
| JMW9sig mistracking I have a Lyra Dorian on my JMW9 - Scoutmaster. Sound is superb and no tracking issues. I already have the itch to upgrade to the Helikon but must resist. | |
| Review of Kyra Argo cartridge I have the VTF set at 1.8 and the anti-skate set at approximately 2.3Tracking was a very minor problem in the beginning but once I dialed in on the optimal VTF/anti-skate/overhang I've had no problems. I have a wall mounted TT rack, never a footfa... | |
| Review of Kyra Argo cartridge I have the Lyra Argo mounted on an LP12/Ittok LVIII and absolutely love the sound. I had the Lyra Lydian Beta previously and fell in love with the 'Lyra' sound. The Argo is a great cartridge for the money and works very well with Linn products. | |
| Cartridge cleaning I've had the Helikon and now a Lyra Argo. Jonathan Carr of ScanTech who designed the cartridge and the distributor, Immedia, both recommend the Lyra SPT liquid cleaner and NOT the Zerodust.I've used the Lyra SPT for two years and never a problem. ... |
