| New phono preamp vs NAD 1020 Probably lateral. A Cambridge 640p is probably the best phono preamp in your budget range | |
| Good speakers under 10K. PSB Synchrony One. They are as good as the reviews claim. | |
| Ultimate Cables no more? His latest ad touts his new products for July! He hasnt shipped items paid for in february! I cant believe Im the only one he has scammed! | |
| Sota Sapphire & Lenco 75.. Yes, more recent in production. My Cosmos and recent Star are much better than my Series III Sapphire. Better build overall, better power supply, better speed control and quieter. | |
| Sota Sapphire & Lenco 75.. I know its a Sota Sapphire. what I meant is whether it is an early version or a later version. Series III and above is appreciably better than earlier versions. | |
| Sota Sapphire & Lenco 75.. What series of Sota. they have been built for 30 years. so, if you are referring to a new one, then for me, Sota. That arm is nothing to right home about though. I have one, and it does what it claims to do, but nothing special. | |

I recently purchased a pair of PSB Synchrony Ones and they are easily the best speakers I have had in my system and I have not yet heard anything else that would cause me to replace them. Clean, articulate, extended, quick and with warmth. Very mu... | |
| How many with analog rigs only? Vinyl only when I listen. My wife sometimes puts on the CD changer for background music. | |
| Is there a problem with my Lyra Delos cartridge? running with low resistance. I have reduced VTF to 1.7g and recleaned the stylus but havent had the chance to listen for a while. | |
| Looking for a $500 or so phono preamp -- BC23 ? For that price, new, I would get a PS Audio GCPH. Lots of flexibility, remote volume, phase and mono. Nothing else comes close for the price. | |
| Ultimate Cables no more? I had ordered biwire speaker cables in 10' length. I cant even remember anymore if i ordered an interconnect. |
