| interconnect choice I just rearranged my room and I had to place my amp close to the speakers so I am stating from scratch. A friend loaned me MIT MI 330 series two for the meantime. They sound ok but I have no basis for comparison. It was also suggested that I consi... | |
| Tube favorites for Modwright LS100? Have 300 hrs on it now. Replaced the stock tubes with rca. Sounds much better | |
| Thinking about buying a different tube preamp... Abuck. Sorry for your loss. I also bought an ls100. I would like to hear what your thoughts are on it. Mine came with the phono board. | |
| Tube favorites for Modwright LS100? Stock: Tungsol, Shaugang. Yes, Dan did say 200-400 hrs. This unit is not new but a "demo". I have a feeling it was sitting for a while. I only have about 70-90 hrs on it. I guess I thought that since it was used previously it would only take a lig... | |

| suggestion for turntable upgrade Dctom, I have not heard a WT table. will consider. And schubert, which Pro-ject was that? Is that Arm at least equal/better to what I have now? | |
| upgrade advice from a Linn LP12 Thanks for the info, digesting it all right now. | |
| upgrade advice from a Linn LP12 Ha ha I certainly haven't paid much attention to TT in the past, oh I'd say 20 years LOL!! I would appreciate a TT that is easy to switch from 33 to 45 RPM :) Have mixed vinyl that makes it a pain. Like I said mine is nearly original and I am gues... | |
| Speaker cable manufacturers EBM, I will check out Purist. On my short list was Elco, WW Silver Starlight, Blue Heaven. | |
| Speaker cable manufacturers Saint, you are right ALL the reviews are great in fact. I am a skeptical audiophile. I research my purchases well and am rarely disappointed but I just didn't expect the degree of improvement that I heard. For example I have heard some systems wit... | |
