| battling the pops and clicks Many things affect surface noise in general and some aspects of the selected components can enhance clicks, pops and surface noise. I doubt that your phono stage is the culprit and your cartridge is probably not causing it either unless it's not p... | |
| Tubes for Audible Illusions Modulus 3A? The AI supplied tubes work quite well and in the long run probably save you money and certainly will save you the frustration you're experiencing now. Just spend the money. Heck, I just layed out $140 for a pair of tubes for my newest preamp and i... | |
| Preamp w/ big sound AND extended frequencies ? Any of the Suprateks meet these goals. | |
| About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone You guys are way too generous in what you think of me. Honestly, I'm really dealing with the the demon I call DREAD right now and it is a challenge to not flinch, not just for myself but also for Barb. Neither one of us is looking forward to what ... | |

| About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone Paul,Welcome back. I've been concerned about you. Congrats on the new house and joining the firm. Keep chasing those bad guys!After careful consideration, and partly motivated by Paul's return, I offer the following dubious news with the usual cav... | |

| Sweet Neo-Con Being discriminating IS NOT intolerance. The Stones rate right up there with Harry Belefonte for not knowing how to reason. More to the point they lie, usually by omission, but just the same, they lie. It gets them attention too when artistically ... | |
| About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone Denis, I've already experienced the miracle of life and the best it has to offer. I've experienced the miracles of conceiving on the first attempt, and life as it evolves in that environment and birth. I will live on in a small way through my gran... | |

| About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone Another steroid high started about five minutes ago. Of course, thanks to the chemo this afternoon. Still, I enjoy feeling good enough to do something, like writing to this thread. LOL. I really don't have much to say on the health front except I ... | |
| Turntables New vs Used Nice post Ferrari. I generally agree with everything you said. I also agree that the Linn is a great bargain on the used side as long as you get one of the better tonearms with it. I disagree somewhat about maintenance with a Linn. I suppose it ma... |
