| Seriously considering tube preamp…opinions? Speaking from my own experience I have a Rogue Audio 99 Magnum and have never had any issues ever in almost 15 years. I love the sound of the 6sn7 tube which led me down road of 6sn7 variants, like the 6fg8, and others. Anyway fwiw the 99 sounds g... | |

| Klipsch K Horns (the new AK6) @mijostyn,That is exactly what I have done a few years back!!! Tri amped and using the Xilica 4080 DSP to control everything, best sound I have ever heard from my Khorns!!! BTW they are also upgraded with 2" wooden tractrix flared horns and 2" BMS... | |
| Horn Speaker Recommendations I am a big fan of big horns, my Klipsch Khorns are modded with 2" drivers and 2" throated wooden tractrix flared horns. I would never change these except to try the Klipsch Jubilee's!!! Have a look on the Klipsch forum and read about the Jub's.... | |

| Brass Pulley for My TT Update:Turns out it was the belt leaving the residue, kinda weird though none of the belts I used in the past did this... I am thinking maybe because I am near the end of the roll of Mylar had something to do with it? | |
| What Type Belt Are You Using @analogluvr ,What type VCR tape are you using? Is it 1/2" wide? Do you do anything to it before installing it? Or do you just splice it and go? | |
| What Type Belt Are You Using @palasr ,I wanted to try one of the Kapton belts but, at $85 each I think not. I can make a Mylar belt for less than 8 cents.... | |
| Brass Pulley for My TT Update:So I had the machine shop make another pulley from SS and wouldn't ya know it , it is also leaving a residue. So now it is either the belt itself or something the shop used on the material I guess??? | |
| Upgrade for users of 1/2" mylar belt Has anyone found a replacement tape for the mylar streamers? I can't find it anywhere so may have to use a replaement type of some kind. | |
| Upgrade for users of 1/2" mylar belt Update for any concerned, I used a machine shop to have two pulley's made. One from brass and one from ss, both seem to work good but, the brass one is leaving a residue like dust on the platter which i fear may mess up the finish so I am trying t... | |

| Are There Any Redpoint Owners Here Well I had the machine shop make me a brass pulley for the new motor setup I bought, it works great except the new pulley is leaving a brass residue on the belt and platter. Probably gonna have him make me another pulley from SS. | |
| Brass Pulley for My TT invictus005,Yes I agree my other pulley is made from SS, he told me he would make one from SS if I wanted it. |
