who knows ZYX retipping or refurbish ?
''Refurbishing'' by the manufacturer means removing the existing generator and putting a brand new generator instead. You get   a new cartridge in the existing body. ''Refurbishing'' by an retipermay include cleaning the cart from small black part... 
Cartridges: Complete Scam?
The ''classical economist'' (Smit, Ricardo,etc.) try to formulate             ''theory of value'' by distinction between ''value in use'' and                 ''value in exchange''. Something like ''the real value'' and ''prices''.       To illumin...

Ortofon offers ''refurbished Windfeld'' for 1750 euro. Raul introducedthis expression without much explanation. One can think aboutcleaning, suspension change and retip either with cantilever/styluscombo or stylus alone. But manufacturer ''refurbi... 
Technics EPA-100 MK2 wiring
dgarretson, What kind of advice is this? ''I have not had the courageto modify'' but I adjusted the bearings by myself. The best bearingsever adjusted by dgarretson? You ilustrate why chakster should not mess with his tonearm.  
Technics EPA-100 MK2 wiring

Why will no other turntable beat the EMT 927?
Dear barbapapa, One of the problems is that the quantor ''many''does not allow logical ,uh, interpretation. Then if ''time tells the truth''where you want to put the ''old Greek'' on your  ''timeline"?If we talk about ''belief'' then I assume that...
