| Technics SL1000 MK3 (SP10 MK3) performance/value VS modern turntables? Ditto to what Atma-sphere wrote. Chakster, the Krebs mod is to stabilize the stators. As you know, in a DD, the platter is generally the rotor of the motor or is affixed firmly to the rotor assembly. In the case of the Mk3, a gigantic ring-shape... | |
| Technics SL1000 MK3 (SP10 MK3) performance/value VS modern turntables? When you say hard to beat at the $7500 price point, do you refer to your idea of its value AFTER you do the upgrades, or what? Because first of all, it's probably worth more than that just as is, in terms of market value. | |
| Bone Records LPs Every pirated LP that I ever heard sounded worse than "junk", unlistenable. Direct to trash. | |

| Herron VTPH-2A Phono Preamp....anyone familiar? Far be it from me to knock the Herron phono stage. My earlier remarks ca 2019 were made in jest at the outset of this longlived thread. I am sure the Herron is superb. But two guys who own the Herron and also own or have owned two other very fin... | |
| Cartridge without serial? Chak, in one paragraph you contradicted yourself. You wrote that your ZYX aiRY III cartridge lacked a serial number, and then you also wrote that it had a fake serial number. You can’t have that both ways. Which is true? And this is the umpteenth ... | |
| I have been on the hunt for the best turntable I can buy. Any suggestions? Does it strike anyone else but me that this is a very odd thread in terms of the tone? Anyway, I have not heard a Beogram turntable in maybe 30 years, but never sell the B & O cartridges short. I am currently listening to a vintage B&O MM... | |

| Russian Tube Preamp, No Return, Here I go again Bill and Elliot, of course the pin out cannot be the same; one is an octal base and the other has 9 pins. One has a wider diameter base and thicker pins than the other. Elliot was asking about an adapter that hat I assume would solve those problem... | |
| Turntables.....A point of diminishing returns? The responses indicate that most of us, including me, don't understand the question, if any. How can one say whether that $650,000 pimped up hymn to bad taste is "many times" better than yours, jprnde, given that none of us has a hope of every he... | |

| PCTI tonearm by rauliruegas Based on the results of a quick search, which I am sure some others must have also done, there is no photo on-line. | |
| PCTI tonearm by rauliruegas Dover, I have no idea what you are getting at, but I agree with your philosophy. In my post above, I left out a key word. I intended to say that one should not underestimate the capabilities of Raul's design group. In my post, I left out the wo... | |
| PCTI tonearm by rauliruegas Is there a website for the PCTI tonearm? I own one of Raul's and Jose's 3160 phonolinepreamplifiers. As a person biased in favor of tube phono stages, I can only say you should not the capabilities of Raul's group. (I am assuming that Raul does n... | |
