| Experience with DS Audio Optical Cartridge Systems Wow! Many local guys. I too would enjoy a get together. I would also add that I’m a member of the DC HiFi group and we meet monthly. My previous cartridge before the DS GM was a Ortofon Century. Lance | |
| Experience with DS Audio Optical Cartridge Systems I have owned some very good MC and MI cartridge’s and I have heard nothing on the same level as the DS. I am lucky to have a DS dealer locally so “Dr Vinyl” came over and set up this new 003 cartridge. I ended up purchasing the Grand Master with t... | |
| Preamp shootout: Linear tube audio, Modwright, etc. The LTA preamp is definitely in the upper echelon. I believe that a fully balanced option will be available next year possibly. Regardless, the MZ Pre level 2 is a keeper for me. | |
| AGD Audion GaN Class D In The House @delveaudiollc agreed, a must hear. | |

| Isoacoustics Gaia Speaker Footers @hickamore I can’t say if the GAIA will completely eliminate all vibration but they work as good or better than any of the other vibration control devices out there. I gave up pursuing perfect. | |
| Preamp shootout: Linear tube audio, Modwright, etc. @cshadow The MicroZOTL Preamp is superior sounding to the MZ3 and is a wonderful match with my Coda No 16 amp. | |
| Isoacoustics Gaia Speaker Footers I bought my GAIA footers from Dr. Vinyl Excellent customer service | |
| AGD Audion GaN Class D In The House @david_ten @mapman I think we can make this happen guys. Lance | |
| AGD Audion GaN Class D In The House @mapman , I’m not sure if @david_ten is as flexible as we are since he is from out of town but we will see what happens. | |
| AGD Audion GaN Class D In The House @david_ten I will be home through the holidays this year so yes, come on by. For complete transparency I have just gotten through my 10 days of quarantine after my bout with Covid. We’re all vaxxed here and I still got it although my wife didn’t... | |
| Products you added to your system in 2021 that made most impact to your music enjoyment The best thing I’ve done in my audio room this year was adding a dedicated power line. I used upgraded 11 ga. wire and a Furutech GTX outlet. I should have done this long ago. |
