Bob...yes, sorry the SIMS Navcom Silencers are long gone, but they do show up on here every so often. Keep an eye out.You could also do a "wanted" ad for them. I'm sure there are some people who have them and haven't used them in years and probabl...

You can't use the tape out because it isn't controlled by the volume control, so the output would be fixed.You can use a pair of "Y" adapters from the main outputs. It will change the output impedance some, but I've done this many times with excel...

Bob...you could definitely upgrade the cartridge. The 10X5 is pretty decent, but there are better out there. If you like the Dynavector sound, (I really do, one of favs), I would recommend a 17D2MKII or a 17D3.Also, if you still have the original ... 
WHAT IS GOING ON WITH VPI ??
Seems like they are having another close to death situation with Mat's Grandfather. See info HEREThey might be a little preoccupied at the moment. Sad to hear the news....

Robert...thanks for your thoughts. I have bought probably 9-10 of the 3203-001 motors direct from Hurst over the past 25 years or so. I was a VPI dealer for many, many years and have set up well over 200 HW-19 tables. I have personally owned over ...

The Biggest Album Release of All Time...

Start over--HiFi rig ---clean slate
The MBL Master Reference System without question! I've heard this system several times. I'll probably never have the money, (or the proper room) for it, but hey I can dream.MBL "The Music Lover" 
Okki Nokki RCM-5 vs VPI 16.5
As I've stated this before on here, I have probably the oldest VPI HW-16.5 serial number 15.It started as a HW-16, then when VPI offered the .5 upgrade kit, I installed it. My unit is well over 30 years old and has cleaned tens of thousands of rec...

Anti-skating- test records vs. ears
