| Turntable Upgrade Suggestion Jomoinc:I like the idea of the OL silver, as it's a relatively high mass arm (14g). By "or better" are you referring to other arms in the Origin line? Do you have any idea what an OL silver would go for used on Audiogon?Thanks!-Marc | |
| Mono Switch? Excellent. Thanks! | |
| All Japanese system Thanks! I guess my problem is knowing which components are not only Japanese, but "Japanese sounding" (whatever that means) ;) | |
| Turntable Upgrade Suggestion Maybe a tonearm compatiable with the Zyx headshell? http://www.sibatech.co.jp/ZYX/ZYXcatalog.htmI'm not sure what arms would work, but this sounds like a good idea to me ;)-Marc | |

| Which Tube Phono Stage around $1k? Can anyone describe in some more detail the differences they have heard between the ARC PH3, BAT P-5, and EAR 834p? | |

| Deutsche Grammophon Original Masters Series Well, basically these releases are cut straight from the masters. Incidentally, most are in mono and they haven't tried to screw thinks up my mixing them into stereo. I've been impressed and these reissues, and they seem to get pretty good marks f... | |
| Fine Tuning Vandersteen 5s An offer gone missing I was under the impression that Mr. Vandersteen recommended the use of warble tones to help setup his line of speakers due to their time/phase corrected design. If this is the case, does that mean that the Rives CD would not fit the bill? | |
| Tube's needed, 6922's or equal for Preamp Qty.3 Can anyone else comment on the cryo'ed NOS Russuan 6922, in terms of using them in a BAT VK-3i preamp? |
