| AC power supply for Nottingham Analogue migueca, how has the project speedbox performed with your nott? I have a 294 and would like to try an affordable option but the 3 watt power draw seems low. Would like to no if if you have had any functional problems, excessive heat? Also, did you... | |
| Turntable upgrade advice Ok, I've been just guestimating by looking at the head shell and also listening. I'll have to try that mat, the dealer was a bit of a non believer about any tweaking (somewhat refreshing) but it doesn't really point you to any avenues you might wa... | |
| Turntable upgrade advice Inna, how big of a difference does the boston mat make in your opinion? | |

| Upgrading Turntable suggestions I was just in your situation and was worried I wouldn't notice an upgrade from my concept table with the same cart and phono pre BUT the Nottingham 294 was a clear step up and works beautifully w/ the concept MC cart... for now. I'd look preowned ... | |
| Turntable upgrade advice I ended up with the Notts 294. It was a one year old trade in to hwdsound, the original owner traded up to a higher model. So far I am very very happy with my decision, there is an obvious improvement over the very good clearaudio concept. My conc... | |
| Turntable upgrade advice The room is large but is as well treated as it can get - wall traps, corner traps, curtains, heavy rug. Not too dead, not too lively. Didn't mention it because there's not much else to do. The room sounds great. | |
