| Stillpoints Ultra SS under your speakers? Any update? Did you try them? | |
| Audio Desk Vinyl Cleaning System Tbg,From what I have heard they did a bunch of changes to fix whatever it was that was causing the failures. You might give it another chance. Only time will tell of course. Email me in 3 months if you like. I'm not on a-gone forums that often. I ... | |
| Audio Desk Vinyl Cleaning System I just got mine on Friday. (They have revised it to presumably address the reliability issues). It is an amazing machine and I really don't know how I lived with my VPI 16.5 for so long. Very highly recommended. | |
| Koetsu loading I am using the 121 Ohm setting on my IO. Lower than that doesn't sound as good to me. For VTF I use 1.9g. For VTA I shine a light from the other side and use a magnifier to visually set the stylus to be nearly perpendicular to the LP but raked sli... | |
| audio aero capitole cd player The Audio Aero Capitole Mk II has been in my system for a few years now. It is a very fine CD player but it is not up to the task of equaling vinyl on a competent turntable/arm/cartridge properly set up. It wouldn't take the Well Tempered in my sy... | |
| Supratek Tubes and Tube Swappin' for Everybody The Marconi's are on the order of $600 a pair. I will let you know once I get them. Chears. | |
| Supratek Tubes and Tube Swappin' for Everybody I find it extremely hard to believe that a vintage Marconi wouldn't sound better than a new Chinese PX4! Thanks though! | |
| Supratek Tubes and Tube Swappin' for Everybody Wc65mustang, sorry, what does AFAIK stand for? And do you mean there is no better tube than the chinese stock tube that came in it? (surely not!) I see quite a few old PX4's on ebay. Ecclectique, no I don't think I'll be putting a $5K+ pair of tub... | |
| Supratek Tubes and Tube Swappin' for Everybody I have a Cabernet and am looking for suggestions for the PX4. I would like to replace the stock tube with some sort of NOS (or just old and good) tube. Which brands have people tried and liked? Thanks | |
| Supratek Cabernet vs Aesthetix Callisto Sig? Update: Jury is still out. Waiting for some good tubes for the Cabernet. Also needed to get a few hours on it as it wasn't quite broken in. | |
| Walker SST contact enhancer Rushton, I've applied the Extreme SST stuff to most of the IC's and power cords in my system since receiving it last week and have to agree with you. It is really startling the difference it has made. Eventually I will get around to putting on the... | |
| Supratek Cabernet vs Aesthetix Callisto Sig? Sure thing, John. I'll let you know how the Walker Tonearm wire works too in case you run into the same troubles. Oh and I went ahead and bought the Cabernet so we'll be able to do a 3-way comparison. Tentatively planned for next weekend. So anybo... | |
| Supratek Cabernet vs Aesthetix Callisto Sig? Hi Braro, If you're interested in comparing it to the CAT ultimate in my system let me know. Or I could bring my CAT to your place. It's kind of a pain to get the CAT out of my rack though since the guy didn't put connectors for the umbilical to t... | |
| Supratek Cabernet vs Aesthetix Callisto Sig? Thanks John! I'm going to email Supratek and ask if he has any customers here in Seattle. I suspect somebody around here has a Callisto Sig as well. I heard the 6 box Aesthetix rig down in San Jose but it was in a completely different system, natu... | |
| Review: Purist Audio Designs Venustas and Opis Interconnect I've been using Opis speaker cables for a little less than a week now. In other words they still aren't fully broken in. I am however in shock at how big an improvement they made over the Museaus! I intend to do a proper review comparing the two b... |
