| Perfect Debute Albums Texas Flood, Stevie Ray Vaughan. His best album. | |
| Does phono stage noise drive you crazy too? It may just be Grado. try something else. I never found a phono stage that works well with their low output cartridges. | |
| Could this be the next Frank Sinatra? One was enough. | |
| Two things about tubes Jorge, reasonable questions, but don't worry so much. Yes, tubes sound better after they warm up and settle down for a half hour or so, but they work fine after about 30 seconds, and it will not harm them. Some gear has a "soft turn-on circuit" wh... | |
| All about Music Servers for a minute...... Congratulations, you have made astute choices so far. You will soon want isolation support for the Rega. I do not know about that model, but many, if not all, Grados are mor or less incompatible with rega tt's - they lack shielding and pick up hum... | |
| My wifes birthday present - a turntable I'm not saying Toffen isn't a lucky guy. He is. | |
| Any difference between tubes. Viridian nailed it, but yes, they can differ. Audiophiles want tubes with low distortion and noise. Electric guitar players select tubes for their particular distortion qualities after clipping. | |

Would you consider upgrading the replacements Mesa used important? They seem better than the originals, but Mesa would never use an expensive "a... | |
| Elvis is Back Legacy Edition is a must have Elvis never came back from the war. | |
| Has anyone tried the new Lyra Kleos? I went from Delos to Kleos. I really like it. | |
| what speakers demand high end electronics Tvad nailed it. Shaw did not say that his speakers would not benefit from finer amps. Who buys Harbeth speakers and tolerates their suboptimal aesthetics, to achieve merely adequate sound? | |
| MH 750 Help? It appears you got the CVterminator model, at a very good price. A step up from the original MH 750. Don't they have the name on the side of the junction box? | |
| Phono stages under 800 to compete with ARC PH3 My experience with the 834P and ph3se were very different than cited above. The 834P was not even remotely competitive, in my system.Many have observed how much better the ph3se was vs. the ph3. since you liked yours, save up to get the se version... |
