| Your favorite musical non fatiguing speakers? Congrats on the new speakers. Enjoy! | |
| Budget $3000-3500 new or used Buying speakers unheard is always a dicey proposition. I only consider used speakers which I have not heard if the seller is local and I have a chance to audition. Sure, you could always resell them if they do not work, but buying and selling spea... | |
| Budget $3000-3500 new or used Sarah, you say that your Genesis 500 speakers developed a problem and that you have to change. Have you looked into repair? Possibly from a service such as Millersound? You may find it cost less to get back to the sound that you have enjoyed for t... | |

Even though I have never used his services yet, it does give me peace of mind knowing that someone so talented lives so close to me.Cheer... | |
| VPI PARTS or SERVICE I have had troubles getting them on the phone, but they have been responding to e-mails within 24 hours. My guess is as Mofi suggests, the Axpona show has them a bit back logged. I know they were late getting my new pulley out to me. In fact, I'm ... | |
| VPI Scout running FAST...help? Did you try putting the belt in a bag with some talcum powder? Shake it up a bit, put it on the pulley and table , then see. This may help slow it down. Though I'm guessing the obvious answer, a VPI SDS, is out of the question? I own a Scout, and ... | |
| Shielded phono IC's under $300 used or new Cerious Technologies Nano Reference. Bob Grost sells them brand new here on Audiogon for $275/meter. I think they are very tough to beat for the money, unless you are looking for a softer, warmer sound. These tend to be fairly revealing, though I ... | |

| Dumb VTA Question Bruce, you will note that in the first photo of the analogplanet link that Mofi posted, Mikey is also using the digital microscope to set up a Lyra Kleos cartridge, just like yours. Great links Mofi!Cheers,John | |
| Review: Silent Source The Music Reference Power Cord Power cord C'mon Chuck.....tell Captinjuan about the CH Acoustic cords now!!! Then he'll know what to buy in 2019!! LOL!!Cheers,John | |
| DCCA Source, DFPC Signature or Elrod EPS3 Wow man! The prices are really climbing on those cords too! Classic old cord prices are climbing faster than NOS tube prices!! Used to be you could grab a Dominus for around $700. Even the Elrods I bought a few months ago cost $100-$200 more a cor... |
