| Damaged Dynavector 20XL Cruz,I have owned both and the 17MK3 is the better cartridge, but you're saying the retip is $250, (which we know) and the trade-up to the 17MK3 is $750? Wow, that's a big difference. I thought maybe a couple hundred bucks. If it were me, I'd reti... | |
| Best John Mayer Album My favorite is "Room for Squares" just because it has one of my favorite songs "No Such Thing". I also really like "Continuum". If you like blues, the John Mayer Trio-"Try" is good.I haven't heard the new live release that's out. | |
| Damaged Dynavector 20XL Actually the output's the same. Sorry, I thought it was a little lower on the 17MK3. | |
| Damaged Dynavector 20XL Cruz, that's an idea. If your phono stage can handle the lower output of the 17MK3, it is a better cartridge. Jim, it's Karat not karate. | |

| ARC PH-3SE Versus PH-5 Mark,I just got done auditioning the ARC PH3, the PH3Se and the PH5. I am buying the PH5. It was clearly better than both of the PH3 units. A used PH3SE is worth the little extra money over a used standard PH3.The PH5 had better, (deeper and more ... | |
| Hum with Cary PH-302 phono amp Yea, that goes backwards to my thinking...which really isn't new :-) It's a mystery. | |
| Make your own vacuum tubes Thanks for sharing that! I wonder how they sound? | |
| Hum with Cary PH-302 phono amp What is the gain of the Audio Experience versus the Cary MM? You could be just overloading the Cary and it's being induced as hum. | |
| Bookshelves I think Ikea makes some decent sounding bookshelves? | |
| Despriately looking for amp for Maggies 20.1 A pair of the new Sanders Sound Systems ESL Mono Amps will clamp onto those babies and never let go. Buttloads of power and control. | |
| VPI hw19jr Audioquest PT-8 arm G-ring 1042 cart Sorry, if I could read I would have answered your question about a phono CABLE, (I read it as phono CARTRIDGE). Signal Cable makes a damn good cable for around $180 new. I saw a used Kimber TAC on Audiogon for around $180. Audioquest makes the Wil... |
