| Question for Audio Alchemy VITB phono preamp users The Shelter 501 MKII works best at between 100-150 ohms, so you should be good to go. | |
| Question for Audio Alchemy VITB phono preamp users Capacitance settings really don't affect MC cartridges. So just leave them open, which I assume, would be a zero setting.What cartridge are you using? The 100 ohm setting might need to be adjusted depending on your cart. | |
| Phono amp question, I agree with Paraneer, there are some excellent low priced phono preamps out there.I was so intrigued by this phono preamp that I had to try one. I had never heard of this one until Tone Audio reviewed it.It's a killer little unit. For $300, proba... | |
| Ching Cheng Power Cords Signal Cable also makes a wonderful AC power cable that is not very expensive.Highly recommended. | |
| M&K Lp's...still superb after all these years. M&K only did around 20 or so LPs. I think I have most of them.In addition to the ones you already listed, these are very good also:Ed Graham-Hot StixRoger Wagner Chorale-EncoreDon Menza-Burnin' | |
| Where should I spend my $2000? This is strictly my opinion, but I've never been a fan of the Definitive Technology speakers...at all.If it was my system, I'd look at new speakers. Golden Ear has a couple of models in the price range.There are actually a lot of choices within yo... | |
| Cary 303/100 skips and stops occasionally In addition to what Zd542 said, once you open it up, see if the lens assembly is accessible. It might just need to be cleaned. You could even try a CD cleaning disc, but it's better if you can clean the lens itself from the inside. | |
| Maggie Disappointment "look for a Meadowlark, cheapest one they ever made will eat a Maggie for lunch."On what planet? You're entitled to your opinion, but that's all it is. Same as mine... | |
| Does a phono cartridge have a break-in period?? I find, for most cartridges, 40-50 hours is about the average for break-in. Some less, some more. | |
| What a great hobby, we meet very nice people I've known Vinh for quite awhile. He's a good guy. Very knowledgeable and really into audio. | |
| mogami 2549 for a phono cable DIN to RCAs Scott, if you're not going to get it fixed under warranty, I would recommend that you send it to Brit Audio and have Michael rewire it with either Cardas wire or the Incognito kit.GREAT upgrade and well worth the price. | |
| Importance of Amplifier versus Preamp? IMHO, the preamp is more important, BUT the amplifier/speaker interface is more critical. Once you get the amp and speaker match correct, a fantastic preamp will make it even better. | |
| REVIEW: KLEI gZero20 Interconnect At $2000 a pair, they should be everything you claim...just sayin'. | |

| Tidal vs. Spotify While I don't use my computer to stream and I don't listen to classical or film music, I find Tidal exemplary. I have only found a few albums or artists so far that Tidal did not have, but for the most part, the catalog is great.I use a hardwired ... |
