| Looking for a phono preamp I have a Parasoound Z-Phono which I use as a backup. I picked it up on Audiogon for $150 and think it sounds quite good. I lived with it for a month recently while my main phono pre was being repaired and didn't miss any of the basic LP experience... | |

| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II I think a more accurate statement would be that snide remarks is what the internet is all about for the emotionally immature. Nice work on the Thorens restoration, though.Don | |
| Deep Cleaning Records With Steam? I agree that this thread currently has no peer as to useful information and entertainment value. I've had my best results ever using steam as a cleaning method (thanks, Crem!). However, since I have no plan to chew on the power cord of my Perfecti... | |

| Just took delivery of the Red Wine Audio 30.2 and- Hmmm, that makes my upgrade decision a bit more difficult since it appears the improvements to the Sig 30 address my main area of concern. One thing I did not mention is that I run my source components (CD/SACD player and phono pre) directly from ... | |
| Just took delivery of the Red Wine Audio 30.2 and- Well Jwarmbrand, I'm a bit stumped. I've been running a Signature 30 with my Quad ESL 57s for six months now and have never been completely satisfied with the upper treble (especially massed violins) - I definitely prefer my Heathkit UA-1 push-pul... | |
| Amp for Quad ESL 57 Hello Ggavetti - no, Bill does not usually have any for sale, but I do see them come up regularly on U.S. eBay. Most of them seem need to need minor repairs (such as new caps), but I'm sure you have someone in your area who could do them. Sheldon ... | |
| Amp for Quad ESL 57 I feel I must put in a plug for Heathkit UA-1s. I've tried several amps with my 57s (which have treble panels rebuilt by Mr. Picquet by the way), including original Quad IIs, Dynaco ST 35s, a Bedini 25/25 and even a Red Wine Audio Signature 30, an... | |
| the 47 lab RS-A1 arm, and it's clone ? Thanks, Lew. I now feel like I did when I saw my SUV on sale for thousands less only a few months after I purchased it. Aargh! ;-) | |
| the 47 lab RS-A1 arm, and it's clone ? Oregon, I'm the owner of the RS-A1 referenced above and there's not really much I can add to Dave's excellent description. The only direct comparisons I've made in my own system have been with an ET 2 air-bearing arm and an RB 300. It bested both ... | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II Gadfly - wow, you are a bit of a strange fellow. It's reassuring that you know what "we" need without knowing who we are, our systems, our musical knowledge/experience, our relationships with and/or knowledge of Jean, or our ability to evaluate in... | |
