| Help me choosing an Integrated Amp inna if it sounds as good as it looks then that would suffice for me. Though its so beautiful that I might find that distracting. | |
| Finally stepping into the hobby after 30 years of watching from the sidelines Atmasphere s30 would be a very nice piece to build around that would also attract some buzz visually.Let us know when this is all done and ready. A trip to Colorado might be in order. :^) | |
| Help me choosing an Integrated Amp Inna, could be. One would hope one gets what they pay for. Not familiar with Gryphon so can’t say. The Gryphon amp is definitely a looker though. Probably out of my league. :^)Junk? That’s pretty harsh. Still very expensive junk if so for sure. | |

| Anyone else having trouble getting cartridges back they sent for repair? Cleeds,Thanks for that info. I knew the stylus replacement train jumped the tracks at some point.

I think we agree. It used to be pretty much all cartridges of all types had replaceable styli years ago during the "golden age". | |

| Help me choosing an Integrated Amp Have you ever heard a good Class D amplifier?If not I’d recommend considering that as an option if you want top notch sound at any volume with those inefficient speakers. Rowland and Bel Canto make excellent Class D amps.Or if low volume is all yo... | |
| Anyone else having trouble getting cartridges back they sent for repair? Has cartridge repair ever been a big thing?Unfortunately the demand seems to far exceed the capacity of those who do it. Seems par for the course as best I can tell.Myself, I’ve never had a cartridge repaired. If one goes or I don’t like it anymor... |
