| Anyone tried Soundsmith VPI Zephyr MI Cartridge the Zephyr is fully broken in now,and it's the proverbial giant killer. For a $1000 it's best cartridge I have used on this table. Bests the Grado Statement Ref 1, the Lyra Helikon, not quite the XVS-1, but not too far away.Great cartridge, won't ... | |

| Help with my first DAC under 2K. Get the Wyred DAC 2 and use the USB port from your PC. I heard it recently and thought it was stellar. | |

| Best Rock Album in 2010 The more I listen to it the more I think Widespread Panic - Dirty Side Down, is the best I have heard. Great album. | |
| Upgrade suggestions That's a very nice vinyl rig, I would think every bit as good as the rest of your rig. Maybe a Sumiko Blackbird, or a Soundsmith Aida cartridge set up properly? Get a MintLP protractor to set up your arm. | |
| Bel Canto Ref 1000MK2 or Wyred SX1000MK2 Actually, I have heard both, and the Magtech is built specifically with hard to drive loads, such as Magnepan's in mind. I love the amps, they just are more special in my opinion with certain speakers, which in most instances are true for any amp.... | |
| Bel Canto Ref 1000MK2 or Wyred SX1000MK2 Sanders Sound (and Innersound before it) is a very well known and respected audio company. They make great gear. I think it sounds best with hard to drive loads. With average or easily driven loads, the amps sound just average. But with the Sander... | |
| Shelby Lynn: Just a Little Lovin LP Same as above, my first copy was not good. Returned it to Music Direct and the new one is STELLAR, dead quiet.I have the CD as well, and though it sounds good, it's still a 44.1 cd, and the vinyl blows it away. | |
| What speaker for being close to rear wall? All Klipsch classics | |
| Bel Canto Ref 1000MK2 or Wyred SX1000MK2 Spectron-Police on Patrol, yes I have owned the Spectron's along with many other amps, and they sound bright. Not just in my system, but in every system I have heard. If you like that sound, knock yourself out. Ellyjr, I love he Cary's with my gea... | |
| If you could only keep 5 Lp vinyl which ones Elizabeth, after your well worded rant, now you have to play. I want to know your 5 of 6000, that's the fun in the game. Since you have 6000 records, we will even let you take 6! | |
| End to All Power Problems Magfan, you need to check with someone at one of the non-profit "green" coalition about the meter issue. I'm not an advocate for gov't subsidized anything, but, it's seems at odds the the gov't is subsidizing these technologies, then the state com... | |
