| Phono Stage/MC Cartridge Denon 103r Settings Help I agree with Tubeo. Use the phono stage in the preamp. That eliminates an extra link in the chain, (and the cable to connect the link) and probably is as good is not better than the Monolithic outboard phono stage. Table to SUT, SUT to preamp. Sho... | |
| Class A or AB Here is what the owner's manual says:Magazines and product literature have both contributed to a great deal of poorly informeddiscussion of class A operation over the years. Unfortunately, the thermalmanagement problems of true class A operation... | |
| Quality of New MoFi recordings I agree with Jaybo. I have just about every new, (and old) MOFI release and they are quite good. The 45rpm reissue of Natalie Merchant-Tigerlily is stunning. The Marc Cohn and Linda Ronstadt are standouts too. | |
| What three cd's would one keep from collection ? 1. Steely Dan-Two Against Nature2. Eagles-The Very Best Of3. Elton John-Goodbye Yellow Brick Road4. Jackson Browne-The Very Best Of (sneaked out) | |
| Benz L-2 db gain for Classe 6 MC phono stage. What's the line stage gain? You will need to add the two together to get the total gain output. I would say around 60 db total would be about right for a cartridge with a .4mv output. That would yield a 400mv output. | |
| Speaker Cables Sorry, I should have researched first. The SYMO cable was the cable of choice for the Apogees, not the OCOS. | |
| Speaker Cables There was a specific speaker cable made for the Apogee line...it was OCOS. I had it on my Stages and it was wonderful. I don't think it's made any longer, but it does show up on AudioGon every so often.You could also try Mapleshade. That's what I'... | |

| Where to send amp to get a power cord update I'm sure that Jon Soderberg could do this. Link is below:www.vintageamprepair.net | |
| Who sells lead shot pellets to fill an equip.stand If you have a small, locally owned shop, they might have "reclaimed" shot which is cheaper than new. | |

| Yet another VPI 16.5 thread Wendell,No, I haven't tried the power cord, but the Tice Clock made it spin backwards. :-) | |
| Yet another VPI 16.5 thread I've had mine since 1980! Best investment I've ever made and the only piece of gear I still haven't upgrade, (several hundred times)... | |
| Looking for guidance with older VPI HW-19 tables You do NOT have to use the springs that come with the MKIII or MKIV VPI! One of the best mods you can do is use either the sorbothane pucks from the VPI Junior or try to find a set of SIMS Navcomm Silencers. I use the SIMS on my MKIII and LOVE wha... | |
| Recommendation for vacuum tube CD-player The Prima Luna Prologue Eight CD player has gotten TREMENDOUS reviews. I just heard one in a friend's system and it was VERY good. |
