| Lyra Helikon vs Skala Hi I did this upgrade a few years ago. At the time I had a SME 20/2 IV.Vi arm.Yes a lil warmer, but more resolution, more clarity/less distortion, more natural presentation. I felt nothing went backwards. Your mileage may vary (but not by much :) | |
| TriPlanar Tips So I tried tip #11 this am. Removed the damping trough.Seems quieter and more transparent. Took 30 seconds. Nice tip ! Thanks for starting the thread years ago!I'll try the o rings next on the antiskating... | |
| How does the Nagra PL-L switch between 115v - 220v Hi I just read my owners manual. No switches or anything. Just supply the ACPS power supply with a input voltage of 90-132 or 180-264 at a freqency of 50-60hz.John | |
| Graham Phantom vs Triplaner So, lots of tri-planar owners the talk about the tiny cartridge voltages needing a "unbroken path" or least broken via the tri planars integral cable. Seems like this design point maybe taking a back seat to a other portions of a arms design? The ... | |
| triplanar have a din- replace cable w synergistic Hi, Triplanar now offers a din as standard connection type. This is a recent change. I bought mine about 90 days ago with a factory din. | |
| PAD Proteus Provectus Fluid Tension Hi Ed, my Proteous are like Sam's. Very easy to "squeeze", not much pressure like dominus (fluid) or venastus.Sounds like you might be ok.Let us know how they sound next to your other cables ! | |
| VPI 16 or 16.5 RCM identification help needed Hi just looked at the back of mine. It's stamped 16.5 and serial # 19678. My unit is about 8 yrs old... | |
| Phono cable for Graham Phantom Hi Ed one final point. I went from Venastus to PP on the tonearm cable. This is no subtle upgrade. It's quite large and since you have the AA tonearm cable, I suspect you will have to same result. | |
| Phono cable for Graham Phantom Hi Ed, You won't go wrong with either cable. Especially since you both in your system already today. Also, if you try the Proteus Provectus, you might sell your Dominus. Differences on these 2 being the PP more clarity and lower resolution. And se... | |
| Review: Running Springs Audio Dmitri AC filter Hi Teajay, nice review. Can you send the AA thread to me? I can't seem to find it...I haven't used a power conditioner in quite awhile and I may get curious again soon. Thanks | |
| Upgrade to a vintage TT? Hi, You might like both. A good direct drive will usually give a different presentation, specifically in this PRaT area. I have heard the Technics SP 10 mk II and III. In the right plinth with a good arm this can be a start of the art combo and ri... | |
| Miss my Dunlavy Speakers, Were to go... I was going to say Dynaudio but just reread your comments. Those silk dome tweeters in the Dunlavy's were very beautiful...Maybe the newest Wilson line up. Sasha, Sophia 2, or used Watt Puppy 7 or 8's etc... I think the Wilsons will give you the a... | |
| Wilson's new speaker the Sasha is coming. Hi, I have to agree also with the darker on top, however I'd like to add with no loss in resolution and maybe really improved resolution and extension.This is a critical point to add because most assume dark as less high end info or closed down to... | |
| Opinions on Finite Element Pagoda Signature Rack Hi I bought a a Finite Elemente Master Reference a few years back. I was moving from a Arcici Suspense Rack with some Symposium shelves and various foots (DH cones, roller blocks etc)The Master Reference (using Cerabase as the feet) made a improve... | |
| Purist Audio Dominus and Provectus IC's thoughts Hi, I recently went from Dominus Ferrox to Proteus Provectus. I think this is a system dependency thing also, so given that...Instead of speed and definition, I use the words "clarity and resolution" are better. The image size may not be a wide/de... |
