Time for a new MM cartridge
I listen to mostly rock and reggae, and I've been using a Clearaudio Charisma MM cartridge - it ain't cheap at 2 grand, but it sure does rock my vinyl!!!   
Dallas Good ..... RIP
Yes, I heard about that a week or so ago, and I was/still am truly gutted, as the Sadies were one of my favorite bands and I've seen them so many times. I feel so bad for Travis and the rest of his family and friends. He was wonderful - RIP Dallas...

300B for Canary Grand reference
I've got the new Western Electric ones in my Eddie Current 300B, and those are excellent - much better than the Gold Lions I had previously...  I'm sure you could find others that sound as good for less money, but I didn't want to spend a lot of t... 
Headphone amp?
I use Moon Audio Black Dragon headphone cables, too - I've got them for all 3 of my headphone sets. The Quicksilver tube headphone amp is some serious value for money at under $1000.   
Is Old Music Killing New Music?
I'm 70 and I've always tried to keep up with contemporary rock, reggae, and pop music. I don't like jazz, blues, or country, but I like all kinds of indie rock and pop, and hip-hop/rap, metal, etc. I also like Grateful Dead music!  There are so m...
