| Stringreen, how is the 3D tonearm doing? I bought my Aries 3 in Feb '15 with the 3D arm and had to purchase the SS CI separately. My 3D arm (a replacement from the original due to a bend in the arm) is the newest rendition and it does not have a fine adjustment on it. | |
| Olive are they in business anyone doing service? In business but do not care about previous customers. Your O4HD is toast since Olive has no spare parts for these units. I bought mine in 2012 and 14 months later the MB fried and Olive would not repair it but they sure tried to sell me one of t... | |
| THE most sonically dissappointing (lp) you own of great music? Crosby and Nash - "One Stoney Evening". My pressing is horrible, played once, never again. | |
| VPI Classic Platter- Naked or better with a mat? The Herbies mat I have was on my Rega P9 previously - a mat made for the P9. I still have static somewhat in the winter but not as bad as without the mat. | |

| Help me pick a Dynaudio I have always preferred a monitor + sub bass system over a full range speaker. I feel the monitor/sub images (soundstage) better when properly integrated together. | |

| Opinions: Joseph Audio Pulsar vs Dynaudio Conficence C1 vs Totem Element Fire vs ????? A nice, used pair of Sonus faber Cremona Auditor Ms can be had for $3000 (retailed for $7000 with the stands). A very nice, all-around monitor with great midrange. A sub is not required for the lower notes, but does help to infill the lowest not... | |
