| New Teres Direct Drive Motor Available as Option Some manufacturers may have enough capital to invest (risk) in making their turntables available through a dealer network while building a sufficient number of tables in advance that they are at hand for purchase. Hi-end audio may have as many who... | |
| New Teres Direct Drive Motor Available as Option Wrt the Verus, I think "try it" means exactly that - try it in your system. Most of those interested are Teres owners for whom the Verus is available for a trial period and as an upgrade at a different price than a new motor only purchase. Whether... | |
| The final Act in a study in preamps the ART 3 I mentioned Amperex Organge Globes because they seem to be out there, are not the priciest, and are a reasonable representative of what early (NOS or near NOS) tubes can do. But there is a variety of manufacturers: Telefunken, Siemans, Mullard, et... | |
| The final Act in a study in preamps the ART 3 Congrats Shane - that is great! The 16LS is the 'baby ART' so its father should take you to just the right spot for your sonic preferences. Now all you need are some nice Amperex Orange Globe 6DJ8 or 7308s. :-) Tim | |

| Alpha Core Goertz It might be because their main business isn't audio ...it's making electrical parts for business. They may not care about a few dollars here and there when they deal with large contracts. There's the example you asked for - you're speculating the ... | |
| Alpha Core Goertz Sorry, I'm not buying the crusading consumer advocate spiel - certainly not with an anonymous posting presented the way you have. Alpha-Core has been in business for 25 years and selling audio cables for 15 of them. That doesn't happen without a l... | |
| Alpha Core Goertz I continue to be amazed at how easily people anonymously will bash a vendor or manufacturer in public - here, for thirty dollars. Just what is the point of this? To announce to the world that its not wise to irritate you? | |
| Why Are Phono Cables Different? I don't believe there is any correlation between signal strength and cost.Your Indra example is a bit of an apples to oranges comparison. The Indra uses the purportedly limited availability amorphous metal wire whereas the Hyperphono does not. A f... | |
| LammLP2 vs. Arc PH_7 Fwiw, current TAS has a Valin PH7 review with brief comments on comparo with the Lamm and a few other top tier phono stages. My own extended thoughts on the PH7 are here.Past experience finds me agreeing with Rcprince's comments on ARC leaning tow... | |
