| Jelco SA-750D cartridges @noromance:Now ya really got me going, right in the middle of a big wave of upgrade-itis! I just replaced my W4S STP SE with a Backert Labs Rhumba 1.2 Extreme and it was a VERY good choice, indeed. I'm seriously going to consider an arm change. Wh... | |
| Jelco SA-750D cartridges Thanks for the input, agrippa. I had actually begun sorting through the information and reviews on the AT VM line and trying to make sense of the different levels. I want to make sure I'm up to speed on the performance differences in the stylus sh... | |
| Jelco SA-750D cartridges Thanks vegasears. I just put the AT-150MLX on my short list. From the reviews I've read, it sounds like a good choice.LP gear is selling the 150SA cartridge at half the price of the 150MLX. Is the MLX body worth the added expense? | |
| Jelco SA-750D cartridges @bpoletti: Thanks for the recommendations. I grew up with AT cartridges and need to shake my bias against them. My memory of the cheaper ones I used back in the day is thin, bright and veiled, but the Signets were excellent. I'll have to look more... | |

| Musical Concepts amplifier modifications upgrades It appears that new driver boards are limited to the Hafler Power amps at this time, but I think they were once available for the Adcom power amps also. He does do upgrades using his MC-3 circuit board on certain Adcom preamps as well as outboard ... | |
| Musical Concepts amplifier modifications upgrades Rather than upgrading the existing design of the amplifier, Mr. Hillig specializes in a redesign of the amplifier. He chooses certain amplifiers as the "bones" on which he builds his own design.He generally uses the transformer and portions of the... | |
| Life After Your Magnepan’s I started my love affair with Maggies in '86 with the SMGA's. The transparency of the sound really wowed me and still does. In the early 2000's I moved up to the MG12's in a 16' x 23' room and, though they were an improvement, they just didn't see... | |
| Very Eavy Very Umble by Uriah Heep mispressed record, read on! I bought a mispressed copy of Stevie Wonder's Innervisions back in the day. Side 2 had the correct label, but was not Stevie Wonder. Over the years, I would occasionally play it for friends to see if anyone knew who the artist was.About ten years ... | |
| Unexpected Tom Petty "stamper" discovery tablejockey,I also got one of those mystery discs when I bought a copy of Stevie Wonder’s "Inner Visions" album. Side One was as it should be, but the flip side was from a completely different album by Yvonne Fair called "The Bitch is Black"!At th... | |
