| D links and i links are they compatible? Just looking over Pioneer's current product line, I didn't see anything with an I.link connection. Perhaps they've abandoned it. I looked at their top end Elite SC-68 and it didn't have I.link which leads me to believe they aren't using it anymore... | |
| Phono Pre Amp Recommendation In that price range, I'd seriously consider a Ray Samuels Audio F-117 Nighthawk. I've owned one and only recently replaced it with a Manley Chinook. | |
| D links and i links are they compatible? Typically these I.link, D-link, and other ?-links are proprietary to the manufacturer. Their idea was that you'd buy all your components from the same family to take "advantage" of their linking/communication features. I doubt Denon's D-link will ... | |
| wall mounts? I'm using a slim profile mount from Monoprice.com for my 55" LED. Their mounts are significantly cheaper than any of the other mounts I looked at. | |
| VPI JMW Jig Question VPI has kinda muddied the water with their Classic arms iterations. There are now 3 versions of the Classic tonearm. Based on what I can tell, the Classic 1 tonearm is the arm that comes with the Classic 1 table (duh). It does not have the VTA adj... | |
| VPI JMW Jig Question My understanding is the Classic 3 arm is the same as the old JMW-10.5i arm which has a 256mm spindle to pivot distance. However, I suggest you confirm this with VPI first. | |
| JMW 10.5 tonearm cartridge recommendation I've used a Dynavector DV-20XL on a JMW-9 Signature and my current JMW-10.5i with excellent results. Based on anecdotal evidence, the most common carts for JMW arms are Benz, Dynavector, and Lyra. | |
| VPI JMW Jig Question Sorry for the thread hijack:I've got a Mint LP coming in the mail (Yip shipped it this morning). Should I do anything to compensate for the thickness of the Mint LP? I see several users stating that the Mint LP is thicker than most records and som... | |
| VPI JMW Jig Question Oh, I see. I don't think the jig can be used for that function per se. If it can, it'll be tedious. The jig is more usual for setting up a cartridge on a VPI table with pre-drilled/pre-attached tonearm. I know on my JMW-10.5i tonearm (the one with... | |
| VPI JMW Jig Question Here what I usually do:Take your arm off the unipivot point. Place the jig over the spindle on your platter. Loosen the screws on the jig so that the V-shaped end can be pushed up against the side of the unipivot cup and tighten the screws back do... | |

| Why aren't current country albums on vinyl Are there current country albums? Last I could tell, "country" is now pop music with a fiddle and cowboy hat. | |
| need suggestion for external CD ripping drive I've never used an external CD drive, but I always had good luck with LiteOn internal drives. From what I recall, Plextor used to be the "bee's knees" of internal drives. I assume their external drives are of sufficient quality as well. Look at Ne... | |
| 2011 Mac Mini - Is SSD worth it? Should speed up your boot system, program loading speeds, and system performance as well. SSD is supposed to be significantly faster than standard HDs. I don't own one, yet, so I can't comment factually. Sonically, I dunno. | |
| Manley Chinook I'm going to try to demo the Chinook soon. I read the manual and asked the dealer, but neither have been able to answer my question. Can you adjust the load/capacitance settings during playback? |
