| What is the best peramp phono between THRAX Orpheus MK2 vs Phasemation EA1200 Hi JM. These are units that are not commonly discussed here, never mind listened to. I reviewed the literature without looking for pricing. They are both tube LCR phono stages. The main difference is the Phasemation has balanced inputs and the Th... | |

| "The Mystery Of Sound Is Mysticism" @stuartk Reality and mysticism are always at odds with each other. I have been told on many occasions that I have to give people "hope." I never did when there was none. Miracles only happen in fairy tales. Fairy tales are for children. I am a... | |
| New Ortofon website with tonearm cartridge matcher @oldsalt It is not comprehensive and make some serious mistakes like recommending cartridges in old style SME head shells for V series SME tonearms. | |
| "The Mystery Of Sound Is Mysticism" @stuartk The problem is ascribing "mystery" to things that are not. The poetry in lyrics can be beautiful. It can also be asinine. It can also be generated by extreme suffering, "why does it have to be this way." Layne Stayle. It can also be gen... | |
| "The Mystery Of Sound Is Mysticism" @mahgister Mystery Something that is difficult or impossible to explain. backwards. @tylermunns , All I did was indicate that music can be subjugated to notation. I never said it was not an art. Just like certain sports the best music comes f... | |
| Audio Technica stylus upgrade @dogberry You are an audiophile! Suck it up and get out that protractor. Lofgren B DIN please. | |

| "The Mystery Of Sound Is Mysticism" @tylermunns I wonder what this is. | |
| "The Mystery Of Sound Is Mysticism" @stuartk "could be" @mahgister There is a solid basis for love in nature and we are not the only animals that love. IMHO we face mysteries when we do not know the answers. The only thing worse than being old is being old and alone. No, th... | |
| "The Mystery Of Sound Is Mysticism" @mahgister I am speechless. | |
| "The Mystery Of Sound Is Mysticism" The Mahavishnu Orchestra wanted to be mystical. It did not work. It was still fun listening to Billy Cobham swing those sticks. | |
| "The Mystery Of Sound Is Mysticism" @stuartk Maybe in Indian music and other forms I am not familiar with, but western music is highly structured and deliberate, anything but mystical. | |
| Cost Incurred to Achieve a Vinyl LP Replay @dogberry A schizophrenic AI program. Go figure. 16 years is getting on. You might consider a new 64 bit computer to run your digital library. I did not think there was a cheap SME turntable, Rega yes, SME no. Good tables mined, but pricey acr... | |
| Cost Incurred to Achieve a Vinyl LP Replay @pindac I think I take what you would consider to be a very disciplined and controlled approach to vinyl playback. Inclusive of one cartridge and including the turntable, tonearm and phono stage I have spent a total of $35,000. IMHO spending mor... |
