| smokin' recommendation: Evan Parker's "TIME LAPSE" Sorry, I didn't mean to upset you or go against your vast opinion based knowledge of music. But by posting "one of the most shockingly brilliant albums of solo sax I have ever heard", you are opening up quite a juggernaut. "If you don't like it, f... | |

| Sota sapphire platter won't spin You can't remove the platter on a SOTA turntable, unless you completely dismantle the table and take it apart. SOTA does that on purpose, it's not user serviceable. The belt is easy to check once you remove the motor cover. | |

| Are ML CLS speakers a match with SS BAT amps? I had a BAT VK220 for awhile on my CLSIIA's, but it just didn't have enough power and/or control. It did sound very good, but not big enough. I'm sure the VK600SE would be more than ample.I haven't heard, (on my CLS system), but in others CLS syst... | |

| David Gray on vinyl The only thing I could find on vinyl were some 7", 10" and 12" singles of just a few different songs. Most of these were promo items. | |
| Which wand for Morch DP-6 I was mistaken about the arm tubes as Lewm stated. It's actually a combination of the cartridge weight and the arm tube weight that gives a fundamental resonance in the 11-12Hz range.The BLUE tube is the one that should be used. The link below has... | |
