| Best MC step up transformer Least money expenditure is the Quicksilver. Order with RCA's on both sides. No captive cables. Then grab .5 meter of the Neotech two conductor 22 awg solid silver interconnect and build your own cable if possible.In my experience all coax wire is ... | |
| Best MC step up transformer I have tried just about every transformer out there over the years. The Verion Cotter is at the very top. Lately Quicksilver is making a tremendous unit for a very reasonable price. The Old Denon au 340 is also very good but must be modified to be... | |
| NOS Tube Recommendation for Quicksilver Phono Pre Amp The Quicksilver preamp tubes are curve traced at all frequencies. You will likely not do better than stock. Try a golden dragon in place of the JJ 12at7 however I have two of these units with stock tubes and they are the opposite of warm wet blank... | |
| Kuzma 4 Point Tonearm I have. Almost every Kuzma arm. The 4 point 9 is amazing. For the money it's outrageous. Highly transparent. Very holographic. It has a sense of life that reminds of live music. The fer 313 is very good but not as open. | |
| Best Solder?? Wonder signature has the least sound to it. Cardas isabout the same but contains copper. To me wbt is bright. Kester works the best and is also cleaner | |
| Kuzma 4 point 9” or 313VTA The 4 point 9 is crazy good with a tube setup. I have most of the Kuzma arms and a 4 point 9 is way up there. It doesn't have a sound. It's full and fat when the music is and crisp and dynamic when the music is. The 313 is very good but the 4 poin... | |
| Kumza Stabi S or Rega P10 ?? Please. I have sold Rega for years. Stabi s and Stogi s12 vta are just in an entirely different league. | |
| Soundsmith cartridges on Rega tables ?? Honestly I'd blame the amp. I hate a guy bring the d3ceate over and we compared it to a pair of Quicksilver mono blocks and an antique sound lab Tulip. The guy sent back the decware the next day. 10 well seasoned audiophiles came to the same concl... | |
| AudioQuest Pegasus vs Thunderbird Interconnects I have to say that AQ pricing is incredible however I have never been able to get the realism of sound from any other cable. I was a dealer for them so I could get them pretty cheap but they are just better. Don't really care how they measure. Rom... | |
| Kuzma Stabi S and 4point? overkill? To the person that claims that an LP 12 is the equal has no idea. The lp 12 sounds like an expensive rega. The kuzma gear is in a different league. | |
| Recommended power cords for Quicksilver V-4 mono Yes. I have been using and dealing with Quicksilver for years. A synergistic master ac coupler is about the best. You canak3 these yourself with no soldering. It consists on two runs of a heavy belden coax with the braids joined and connected to t... | |
| In Memoriam: Bobby Palkovich of Merlin Music I spoke to Bobby many times. I don't think there is anything inappropriate about being concerned about a lot of money. My 21 year old son lost his life on that same day. Not by his own hand but by freak accident. Bobby made a choice to take his ow... | |

| solder-Eutechnic,Wonder,WBT?? i have tried many of the current solders mentioned above. One summer after moving to Forida, bored with nothing but time I decided to listen to solder. My conclusions were. WBT, while very easy to work with, added a sheen or brightness to the musi... | |
