| Loricraft vs. VPI 16.5 record cleaner I agree with Lugnut. Also, Doug's experiences with the Lorricraft have been explained clearly. If I could swing it, I'd have one. I'd buy it over the KM jsut because the machines are similar enought that I couldn't justify the extra cash.Cleaning ... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Well guys, a little bad news. The WE 350b's came today, and shit, one's screwed. So much for that. At least the seller indicated in his ad that he offered money-back if something was wrong with them. I'm going to take them and get them checked bef... | |
| Two Tonearm Turntable: Need Suggestions Don't write off the Teres. Chris has stated that you could get the motor controller wired for 78. The problem is as far as I know, you can only get two speeds out of one motor. Of course, the Teres does not offer pitch control, because one of it's... | |
| Audio Note speaker kit 2, experience?comments? I have my AN AZ3 set up in corners, and I think it does make a huge difference with AN speakers. The AZ3 is a two way floorstander, quasi quarter wave front loaded horn. Much more dynamic and a better soundstage than traditional placements, in my ... | |
| Spindle/Bearing Lube Yes, you can:AMEN! | |
| Home Spindle Lube Test Bob,What would you recommend? Something like Starrett oil, or a type of sewing machine oil? I ask because while I used the oil Chris sends out with the Teres bearing, I'm always open to suggestions. If a lighter oil will work better, I'm all for i... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century I hope so, I've got about 20 Tung Sol 5881, and 20 more different brands. I know Cello says that they CAN NOT be beaten. If they are that good, I'm going to get 4 more for my Audio Note.I am continually amazed that where audio is concerned, budget... | |
| $800 Cartridge Shootout and Upgrade Path Yep, you sure did make the right choice on the table. I don't think you'll be doing any complaining, except for going over budget, which seems to be inevitable!And yes. Doug can be very persuasive. I can't wait to hear Raul tell you how bad your c... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Finally! I finally won a set of WE350b's! Now I can see for myself what some of you have been saying about this tube. The last 2 sets on ebay went for $550 & $650, and they are about $800 at Tubeworld, so I feel lucky to have gotten them for F... | |
| Review: Hyperion HPS-938 I second that! I am trying to find somewhere to demo these. I've read too many good things about them. | |
| the table or the arm first? Agreed. If you can get a good deal on a great table, go for it. I use a 250, but have a 300 too. I don't think you could go wrong with either. But, since you have a choice, go with the 250. There is more room for inexpensive improvements, i.e. che... | |
| Is extremely accurate "VTA" adjustment necessary? OL250, an older one. Also tried it with a 300. No problems. | |
| mono amp connections. no, no, yes | |
| loading of transfiguration temper V I've played around with loading a little on my Supratek. It's got 4 built-in settings. While the differences are slight, there are 2 settings that sound better than the recommended one for the 103r. I think it may boil down to what type of sound y... | |
| What do you do when nothing seems to get LP clean? Dave,I've got to agree. My usage of it was about as un-scientific as you can get. Put it on, scrub, vacuum. Leave it on a little longer, scrub, vacuum. Leave it on even longer, vacuum. Used the second stage each time. BTW, here's the Yes album wit... |
