Is an IPOD hi-fi?
If you play lossless files through the line-out connection, then through an external DAC with good jitter control...You would actually need a digital output to do this. Line out is analog. 
Walker Audio Prelude LP Cleaning Solution
Thanks, Slipknot.Can you describe the process that goes on with the premixed solution? One ounce (you indicated that you actually used less) of cleaning solution for 20 LP sides equals about 1/3 teaspoon of solution per side. Do you feel that that... 
Walker Audio Prelude LP Cleaning Solution
Slipknot,I didn't see any information on Lloyd's site indicating how many LP sides one can expect to clean with one complete system (without having to re-order any particular item). Any idea?If you don't expect any "biohazards" on an LP, is it nec...

Also try Futhturnet.org. I'm pretty sure it doesn't require ANY thinking (it's been a while!).Also try losslesslegs and dimeadozen. 
The Cartridgeman Isolater.
...it automatically creates the perfect bond.I find it hard to believe that anybody on Earth can make a claim like this. What's with these crazy "facts?"It does seem logical that a little bondage between cartridge and tonearm would be beneficial, ...

Lube for turntable - What do you prefer?
240z4u,It's funny that Oracle recommended a heavier weight oil for the old, worn bearing of your alexandria. They told me that the teflon coated bearing in the Delphis would probably benefit from lighter oil in an older bearing due to the fact tha...
