Basis Vector 3 vs. Schröder, Triplanar, Graham I compared the Vector 3 (on a Basis Debut Vacuum and Benz Ruby 2 cart) and much preferred the Vector, particularly in the tracking department. Not as tweakable as the Grmaham (I didn't get the optional VTA adjuster for the Vector) but one I found ... | |
Joule Electra OPS-1 or 2 MkIII I have the separate power supply as well.In response to the loading question, there is no soldering-- you just plug in the resistors into RCA jacks located next to the phono inputs.As for the Benz "liking" 1K, this was not true in my system, and J... | |
Joule Electra OPS-1 or 2 MkIII I am using the OPS-1 Mk3 with an LA-100 mk3.If you like the sound of the LA-100 (who wouldn't?) you will be happy with the phono stage.It is NOT as quiet as a solid-state device in high-gain mode(MC) but is silent in low-gain (MM) mode.If you love... | |
anyone gone from the Graham 2.2 to vecteur arm ? First off, there was no dust on the cantilever. I am religious about stylus cleaning.And yes, I tortured myself with the damping fluid issue to no avail. One could argue that the need to be so precise with damping fluid indicates a design flaw (I'... | |
anyone gone from the Graham 2.2 to vecteur arm ? In my case, I do not feel that I jumped for the 'flavor of the month.' The Vector has been out a while, in fact.I would not have guessed that my complaint of sibilance with the Graham would have caused so much sand in people's panties. In MY exper... | |
anyone gone from the Graham 2.2 to vecteur arm ? I did exactly this about a month ago. TT is a Debut vacuum. Cart is a Benz Ruby 2.With the Graham, I found myself constantly futzing around with all the adjustments, mostly due to sibilance that I could not eliminate by changing cartridge alignmen... |
