| Get yer Alice at Axpona What is the value of that R2R model WITHOUT the Alice Alice treatment? @tablejockey The question should be about overall value proposition of a R2R desk in today’s world. Even if one can afford to buy a R2R deck used or new, the rarity of ava... | |

Vinyl may be expensive, but for those who cherish the format, the value goes far beyond the price tag. When you consider the tactile experience, the sonic reward, and the... | |
| Im going to regret my cable question My recommendation would be to try OCC cables from Audio Sensibility. Their Testament Single wire speaker cable where I would start to see if you hear any improvements. As far as improvements you seek, a cable swap or any component change—can’t b... | |

| What are your top 3 favorite turntable companies (manufacturer) and why? If I would’ve not gone the classic Garrard 301 route, I would have definitely picked-up TW-Acustic Raven GT2 with 10.5 tonearm. It offers amazing performance for the money! My other favorite, SME 15 MK2. The design bit dated now but it remains on... | |
