Oracle Paris, 15 years old with Jelco 250ST Arm?
I was an Oracle dealer at that time. I'm pretty sure that arm was called the Oracle "Prelude" and it was made by Jelco. I don't think it was an exact 250ST model, but was the same as all the other Jelco OEM arms of the time. Not a bad arm for the ... 
Has anyone tried the new Lyra Kleos?
Audiogoner Theo has one. He started with a Delos and swapped up to the Kleos. He's enamored with it and has excellent ears that I trust. I haven't heard it yet on his setup, but will shortly. I thought the Delos was very nice on his system and he ...

Where to put best tubes in AR Ph3-SE
I have a PH3SE, (and a PH3). The V1 and V2 positions are the right and left channel tubes. Both of these need to be matched and of lowest possible noise. The V3 is a cathode follower and just needs to be of good quality.I have always used (3) matc...

Dead Can Dance New LP "into the labrynth"
If you are talking about the new MOBILE FIDELITY Silver series reissue, I do not hear that on my copy.

I have the Classic 180 gram, the Classic 200 gram and the Classic 45RPM. I also have a Canadian pressing. ALL of these vinyl copies, without exception, are better sounding than any version of the CD that I have heard.Yeah, I'm a Cowboy Junkies Jun... 
moody blues vs rock hall of fame
Agree with the above. They should have been in when they first became eligible years ago... 
audio research
The ARC SP8 is an all tube preamp (8 tubes total). The SP9 and SP14 were hybrids (2 tubes for SP9, 1 for SP14).I have owned all of these and really preferred the SP9 and SP14 to the SP8.IMHO, the SP9MKII or SP9MKIII are excellent choices. Tube rol...

picked up Steely Dan : Can't buy a Thrill on ABC
I think that the best sounding copy of "Can't by a Thrill" is the Speakers Corner reissue. I also have a wonderful sounding German copy.

Sp-10 Mk2 preamplifier
The 5960/7316 are 12AU7 variants. The SP10 doesn't use any 12AU7 tubes. The tube complement in a SP10 is: (4) 6922 LN, (8) 6922, (2) 5881, (1) 12AT7.You "might" be able to sub that for the 12AT7, but the circuit wasn't designed for that tube.
