ZYX "House" Sound
@rauliruegas  Thanks for your comments.   It turns out that I am the original owner of one of the DD-40 tables I own. I bought it around 1978 from a high end stereo shop. I was also eying the DDX-1000, but it was too expensive for me then. I was... 
ZYX "House" Sound
@mijostyn , thanks for your input. I was referring to bad sounding cymbals that I've heard from past setups. I do a thorough alignment now so I don't have that problem anymore. Just bad memories. I don't care for the "clinical" sound some cartrid... 
Where to buy vinyl?
I second Discogs. I've bought over 30 LPs through Discogs. Except for one LP, I have received wonderfully playing records. Can't beat it.

This is disturbing and confusing. I have thoroughly tested the MA-505 and the DD-40. Both are functioning very well. I have an MS in Physics and have spent my entire career developing very high end medical and communications equipment. I thorough... 
ZYX "House" Sound
Please kindly tell me why the DD-40 is not good enough. It sounds wonderful to me with these cartridges. I've had Rega tables before. I don't think much of them. What makes this Rega tables work for the Koetsu but not the DD-40? What makes a new ... 
Subwoofer matching
Room treatments are not for everyone. They are usually not very pleasing to the eye. But they do work. I have corner traps. I tried the "clap" test with and without them. The echo disappears using the corner trap. It is truly amazing. You cannot r... 
Subwoofer matching

"Musical" subwoofers? Advice please on comparing JL subs
My apologies to everyone. I meant this screed for another topic on this forum. Perhaps it will add to the discussion. If not, feel free to erase it. I'm very new. 
Subwoofer matching
Here's some of my thoughts on rooms and subs. Right now, I'm figuring out the best location for my system in my room. It's about time. My room is 14.5' x 19.5' x 8' high. I listen across the 14.5" dimension out of necessity. I am using a readi...

Mark Levinson Owners - Camac Connector Info
I recently purchased a Levinson NO. 27 with CAMAC. I decided to build my own cables. You can buy the LEMO CAMAC connectors from Mouser in the USA. They're $25 each (2013). Shielded cable and RCA connectors together are less than $10 total for very...
