| Tributaries?? Tributaries started as McIntosh's cable division. I know it is still under the Gordon J. Gow Technologies, Inc. banner. They have several different models of cables within each category.http://www.tributariescable.com/products/audio/analog.cfm | |
| My turntable hates Cat Stevens How close is your counterweight to the pivot point of the arm? It should be as far in as possible. This keeps the center of gravity at the pivot. If it's pretty far back on the arm, remove the 3 gram weight and rebalance. Not sure if this will hel... | |

| Choosing a Floorstander by Footprint Size You might check the Definitive Technology "Mythos" series or, if you could find a pair, the Athena WS-100. | |
| Tube dampers/coolers effect on preamp sound? I use Herbie's Tube Dampers on all of my tube gear. I wouldn't say it's a profound difference, but well worth the asking price. It's a pretty cheap tweek that works well...IMHO. | |
| VPI Scout with Grado Master - but what next? Steely Dan...ROCKS!!! | |
| Soundsmith re-tips received today I have had a half dozen or so cartridges retipped by Peter and all of them are superb! I choose the $250 level service on all of them. Highly recommended. | |
