| Recommend an MC cartridge I went from Hana ML to an Aidas CU Series Durawood Bee. An amazing instrument, and retipping is very reasonable. | |
| Power Cord for Accuphase Amplifier you won’t hear anything better until it warms up for 3 hours. you need to spend 2.5-3k to make any significant difference on an amp like yours. The random number generator strikes again. | |
| Enjoying "Affordable" Equipment Perhaps good ROI / value for money rather than affordable? | |
| ReL Subs: High Level or Low Level connection I have 2 RELs and I've tried both connections with a couple of different amps. High-level is the way to go IMO. That way the RELs are fed exactly the same signal as your mains rather than a filtered signal. If you go with Speakon connections I ... | |
| That Transformational piece of Gear We All Wish For bgross Yep, tubes can be transformative. Similar experience here with my tube DAC and some NOS Mullards. I was on the fence between your PS and GoldNote - ended up with GoldNote. The LM isn't pretty but it sure does sound great even with the stock... | |

| Ebay selling my missing amplifier @wesheadley I did not change the subject. Things get lost, damaged during shipping, scheduled pick ups for RMAs don't happen, and getting paid on an insurance claim is nearly impossible and requires a ridiculous amount of time and resources. ... | |
| Ebay selling my missing amplifier I have no idea how high value packages are shipped? Wrong again @wesheadley I'm an executive at a medical device company. We ship large, very expensive devices across the US and around the world every day. Things get lost, damaged during shippi... | |
| Power Cord for Accuphase Amplifier @audphile1 They’ll just have you eat fugu sushi prepared by a trainee. That's funny. Fugu restaurants are far less adventurous now because many of the fish are farmed and the liver is not poisonous. Takes all the fun out of it! | |
