| PROAC D48R Bass Booming @milpai Thanks for the comment. OP you don't have any room or system pictures posted. Do you have carpet or rugs in your room, and what is on your walls? | |
| Cartridge repair by Moscow based Roman?? @hdm It seems unusual, but the part I was missing until I read carefully is that the OP did not send his cartridge to SoundSmith, without the actual cartridge, they can't fully determine whether they can repair it. | |
| 12AX7 replacement I would call Andy at Vintage Tube Services. You will probably need to tell him the brand and model of the preamp to maximize the value of his advice. | |
| What's up With VTS? The best way to contact Andy is with a phone call. E-mail is not very effective. I never have trouble reaching him and he returns calls promptly unless tube hunting or vacationing. | |
| PROAC D48R Bass Booming Do you have bass traps or other room treatment? I use an active bass trap instead of passive, but the idea is the same https://bagend.com/products/series/active-bass-trap/ You could also try some electronic room EQ, which should be able to fix yo... | |

It has balance and remote cont... | |
| Seriously considering tube preamp…opinions? Look for a used Aesthetix Calypso in your price range. Great undervalued product | |
| Need a good preamp w remote You can get a used Aesthetix Calypso in your price range. Line only. No Phono | |
| Best cartridge for very old worn vinyl I think you should look at some of the EMT cartridges with spherical styli. They have both stereo and mono modelshttps://www.emt-tontechnik.ch/cartridges | |
| Shindo Labs Amps and Preamps @normansizemore You say you are a van of vintage gear. Is that the same white van where one purchases those great speakers to use with the Sansui? | |
| Curious about the difference in what I’d hear on different tonearms I have had a couple of 3 Rega tonearms and there is not much difference. In the confines of your your question you may likely conclude that there is little if any difference in tonearms. That would be an incorrect conclusion, but seemingly correct... | |
| Have Aesthetic Rhea. Calypso and Atlas Amp Have 12k budget for speakers. Recommendations I had the same electronics as you (all Aesthetix) and they were a great match with my ProAc D40r speakers. You can see my room and system, needs a update, but pretty accurate. | |
| Would you donate a dollar to have these Members Review a Product? NO | |
| HiFi vs Cheaper Power Conditioners; What's the difference? They are more quiet generally and sound better |
