| Thoughts on the Linn LP12 turntable No amount of wishful thinking or modification is going to make the LP 12 representative of what a modern intermediate priced turntable can do. The Avid Acutus, SME, Sota and Basis turntables all are definitive improvements over the LP 12. The LP 1... | |

| Veneer delamination @dbwinters , They are using a heat set glue. They either did not heat it well when they put the veneer on or they did not use enough glue. This is not that hard!! Make sure the bottom of the iron is perfectly smooth. If not smooth it with 2000 gr... | |
| Subwoofer for Raidho XT-1 sadly buried in a console built in? @yyzsantabarbara, The Sierra-2EX is a poor design. The problem is that the tweeter is going to convert from point source radiation to line source in the upper midrange depending on the length of the ribbon.

| Need advice for a replacement phono cartridge @lewm , the Japanese believe that workmanship endows items with a spirit as they believe different stones endow items with a particular spirit. So you have Urushi and stone Koetsus. Apparently the Japanese believe stone spirits are better than lac... | |
| Need advice for a replacement phono cartridge @mulveling , I have a real hard time buying anything from a guy who said antiskating was not important. @ghdprentice , I have a Japanese drumming disc that is sort of fun. I have a bunch of wonderful hand made Japanese woodworking tools (samurai... | |
