| RIP Art Dudley So freakin’ young. I was looking forward to him getting older. I felt that he got it; really understood the delicacy and nuance and color of music. And chose equipment that brought out those qualities. I shared his love of idlers and tubes althoug... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? The Triffids - In The Pines (Hot 1986)Bought this when it came out. Got rave reviews then. Australian. Solid. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Holst - English Opera Group, English Chamber Orchestra, LSO, André Previn –The Wandering Scholar (Angel 1975)Mint and silent. Fine soundstaging. Wonderful performances. | |

| Have a U-Turn turntable with Ortofon 2M Red cartridge. Upgrade cartridge or turntable??? You only live once. Soon, you'll have lots of records and will always be buying and selling mediocre budget tables and losing on the transactions. Save up and get a Technics SL-1500C and Nag MP150. | |
| Jelco TK-850L Installation and Initial Impressions @bpoletti Thanks for the ack. Great read. For other readers, I have Decca cartridges on my 2 Jelco 850Ls and 750L. No issues at all and I track light at 1.65. If the arms can do that, they've got to be very good. Don't be tempted to get the cheap... | |
| Rega P10 v Complete rebuild Garrard 401! @scar972 Great setup. How does the Raven stack up against the idlers? | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 I prefer the DD rendition of both pieces. Admittedly, there is a little more euphony with the Raven but I prefer the cleaner and crisper Victor. Frogman’s astute observation is of note too. I wonder if this is why the LDR never quite sounded 100% ... | |

| Diagnosing and fixing transformer hum If it's not DC offset, it may be that the transformer(s) are simply loose enough to vibrate. Have you tried loosening/tightening mountings bolts? | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Tom Waits - Frank's Wild Years (Island 1987)Great album. SG low-fi. | |
| Teflon Cap upgrade or new set of NOS tubes for conrad johnson PV12A Preamp? Well, the NOS tubes could be worse than what you have and the teflon caps might be worse than what’s in there already. It would be easier, safer, and less of a drag to try tubes. | |
