Turntable with sme mount
Why not a SME? Like a SME 20/2 or 30/2? 
How to bridge 2x BAT VK-55 into monoblocks?
It's pretty easy, I've done it to 2 VK75se's. It's best to order the kit from BAT. You have to take the bottom cover off, a wiring harness connects 2 boards (about a dozen or so hex screws and a plug n play harness - 3 minutes) Then you have to ti... 
Shorter belt for TW-Acustic Raven AC-1
Hi, If you can't solve your space issues with your TW, maybe condider a Grand Prix Monaco direct drive.A few of us have them. really a wonderful table that handily steps up over my former SME 20/2 (which is pretty good)I have not compared it to yo... 
Any One Use a SlingLink Turbo?
Hi, I have NOT tried the product you're asking about. But I have tried a Netgear setup very similar. Plug one unit into the wall outlet close to your router, connect 2 units via ethernet cable. Then plug the next Netgear box next to the thing you ... 
BAT amps solid state vs tube, sound much different
Hi, So I've owned a VK200, VK 60, vk75SE and 150SE's over the years. I'd say jims comments with the VK 60 vs SS were right. I actually like the midrange glory of the vk60 over the vk200, but that's just a system matching/taste thing not a differin... 
Vinyl reissues
cmalak, I have purchased all the music matters and the first 3 AP Impulse 45 reissues.I can not compare these to orginal pressings. So in this context, some of the music matters are simply stunning. Some are ok. None are bad. I am a little disspoi... 
Vinyl reissues
I'll add to jaybo's confusion :) sometimes reissues are better, just different, and then worse.it just depends, guess that's part of the fundo you have some specific reissues in mind? 
Stealth Indra vs Purist Proteus Provectus
Goone, I have owned/own both Dominus and Proteus Provectus. Dominus has more warth, Proteus is more nuetral, transparent, with better clarity. 
Stealth Indra vs Purist Proteus Provectus
Audiofiel is right. I confused the two cables. Sorry 
Stealth Indra vs Purist Proteus Provectus
I compared the Stealth tonearm cable to the Purist Proteus Provectus tonearm cable. Honestly, they were more similar than different. The Purist did reject RFI better and had a more quiet background (I guess it's the fluid).I kept my Proteus Provec... 
TW-Acustic Raven Belt question?
Little off topic, and I have no idea if TW is using the same belt material as SME.But when I owned my SME 20/2 I could always hear a improvement when I changed belts about every 18-24 months. Mostly in the PRaT/detail retrieval. I'd also use conta... 
Upgrade modded P25 to P7 or uprade cartridge
I would not discount the impact of the TT PSU. Can you order that separately for your p25? I am not that familiar with the rega current designs (I did have a p25 years ago).I'd add this to the list to consider...Good luck! 
Nagra BPS distorting
So if it works at the store with the same cartrige and this same nagra bps works at the store, it's likely not the cartridge or phono stage. (assuming you're cartridge at home is performing fine with another phono stage).Could it be a cable shorti...

Hi the BAT VK300 intregreated is great match. I've heard this on a number of occasions...
