| Favorite Platform for Linn LP12 Hello everyone :)I just wanted to take a moment to follow-up and let you know what I ended up getting.I bought a Symposium Segue to use as the shelf to rest my LP12 on, placing it on my wall mounted platform.It works very, very well. Far better t... | |
| Herron VTPH-2A vs Rogers PA-2 Phono Preamplifier " find out if I like a quality “tube” phono stage.""If that's the case, expand your quest outside of made in USA gear and look at the the other players."We vinyl lovers are truly blessed, as there is certainly no shortage of fantastic phono amps t... | |

| Anyone drive Verity Audio Parsifal Encores with tubes? I've the Verity's driven with the big CAT tube amps at shows several times and was always impressed with the naturalness of the sound. Very impressive, and was always one of my favorite rooms.Best wishes,Don | |

| Is my anti-skating too strong. @jjss49 Thank you for posting the link to Peter's videos on AS. He seems like a really great guy and I think he did a great job with the videos. I certainly am not an expert on this topic but what he was saying seems to make sense to me.A quest... | |
| Tracking error or ?? @speakermaster: Regarding ..."the vinyl pressings can have distortion on highly modulated peaks that are not there on others especially at the end of the record side."I find this interesting and would like to learn more about this. Out of curios... | |
| Tracking error or ?? I absolutely agree.... you have to consider the table, arm and cartridge as a complete system. An arm and cartridge can certainly sound better or worse on one table vs another. But, if you compare my nicely set up LP12/ARO/Benz S-Class Zebra Woo... | |
