New Schroeder linear tonearm, any thoughts?
lewm, I think sarcher30 hits it about right. All I know is this arm makes some seriously beautiful music...I feel like I have a whole new vinyl front end...not just a arm... it's pretty impressive...honestly I was a ways down the road on a very pr... 
XLR to RCA Adapter Dilemma
interesting...Lloyd is right..something is different with the implementation of the xlr to rca adapters vs the rca jacks...I used to have a BAT VK51SE...but never ran a single ended amp...I did run single ended sources....it all sounded great... 
Tube preamp question

HELP BAT VK-250 or Musical Fidelity A300cr?
I used to own a BAT VK50SE and a BAT VK200. It's a awesome combination and I'd have to agree with zd542...the matching here is very nice. I'd sell the MF...Also when you get your BAT amp ...leave it on when your listening everyday...I think you'll... 
Moving-Coil Step-Up Transformer SUT
Hey Raul, I used to own a Denon AU-340 for years and years. I had it rewired with Randall Research interconnects...it is pretty good...I have to agree with you...

Directv to ARC DAC?
mofi is right...possibly...the dtv audio signal isn't so high rez...I've tried with with my dCS DAC...it's pretty uninteresting to listen to 
Why my SUT hums only with certain phonostages ?
Pani I get a low level hum from my ear mc4 into the mm input on my nagra vps...with allaerts mc 2 finish. It's a low out put .2mv....When I use my lyra atlas...same sut and phono no hum...but I also don't need so much gain...so I suspect the phono... 
Thoughts on Nagra MSA
I"ve always heard it in monoblock form...driving some tougher loads like the Wilson Sasha's or the Rockport Aviors...it's always been effortless and wonderful

It is a little jewell. I have heard these amps many times...I own a nagra vps/vfs and really love it
