| Under $3K streaming dac suggestions, Roon Ready? I found a used DMS500 at Cary.com for under 2k, first time I've spent on digital in a long while, my music room has had just a TT for the last 5 years. I'm hoping as a Roon endpoint it will be a tidy digital music solution. I'll post back after ... | |
| Clearaudio Innovation Wood or shoot for the stars Techdas AF 3 Just ordered the pulley upgrade for my Innovation Compact Wood. Any tips on setup? | |
| Audio Desk Systeme RCM - what's been your experience? I also had the pump failure upgrade scam. I love my new pro machine, but very costly. Nothing better for cleaning/convenience, but can only recommend with caveat regarding reliability, only time will tell.Jeff | |
| Strange Loud Popping Sounds Any updates? | |
| Strange Loud Popping Sounds I couldn't tell you for sure but the signal path for digital should be the same after the preamp input jacks, so i would bet on the phonopre. The other reason I think this is a discharge at the phonopre level would be amplified extensively especi... | |
| VPI TNT Turntables Regarding the number of belts used, I have a classic 3 with Eagle/rr and ring clamp, I use 3 belts on a hrx pulley. When I went from 1 to 3 belts the variability in speed decreased +-2 hundreths. Now I never see above 33.335 or below 33.331. I ... | |

| VPI Classic Platter- Naked or better with a mat? Do you have the cart near the scale when zeroing? My benz ruby will move the scale a few hundredths of a gram easy making it tough to calibrate, I now add a sheet of lint free fabric to the scale and zero with the cart docked. | |
| Record Revirginizer I love it, expensive but almost alway gives you a 1/2 grade or more. I use it on all my best pressings that have any noise at all. | |
| New VPI 3D Arm I'm running a Kleos SL on A Classic 3 with 3d arm. It is a magical combination. | |
| Rack Recommendations I understand your skepticism, but vibration control is the real deal. You have laid out a lot of cash on your components and would be well rewarded by a scientifically designed stand. I did extensive research and came to SRA Scuttle rack. It is ve... | |
| Hot Stamper - myth or reality? I personally believe there are large differences between pressings. This includes record plants of first issues ie monarch vs presswell Sticky Fingers. This is why it is so fun collecting records. I have picked up some "hot stampers" from the barg... | |
| New VPI 3D Arm How come no updates on this thread? Just put one on last night, quite impressive. | |
| Help with a VPI 3D Tonearm Exchange will a classic 3 arm fit on the 3d pivot point, or do I need to change pivot points every time I swap cartridges(arm tubes)? | |
| VPI Aries/JMW 10/Lyra Delos -- Phono preamp rec? Jcoehler,what tubes are you using in your Chinook? I'm using Amperex 7308's and they are way better than the stock. |
