Woot! Decca cartridge bargain
@topoxforddoc To clarify. The Grey may have the WP stylus. JW just said it was a type of line contact. The Paratrace is on my SG/Decapod.I also picked up a JW refurbished Garrott Bros Gold Microscanner which is superb. Almost as good as the SG sou...

1. Get a Spin Clean and clean all your records. 2. Buy Mobile Fidelity inner sleeves.3. Buy a box of Mr. Muscle pads.3a. Drop stylus with cue lever onto pad. Lift. Repeat. (Do not drag over stylus.) After every side.4. Sell table and buy a Pioneer... 
can someone answer me this.....
You should have listened to the first reply from @atmasphere ! Live and learn.

@jay73 Since you asked earlier, the Spin Clean is very effective for the price. 
LONDON Decca, Tzar DST and similar cartridges
@halcro Of course, I meant carbon fibre not graphite. I returned the Yamamoto CF headshell so I can’t experiment further. The bass was better delineated but the upper mids, highs and air were attenuated. That's a no-no for me. If I get a tax rebat...

Indeed. Make the government the enemy and the corporations will come to the rescue. So rather than have "of the people, by the people, for the people," a cohort of the citizens seem to want a quasi-oligarchic dictatorship with someone at the helm ... 
Do you prefer tidy room to messy one with better sound?
Do you prefer tidy room to messy one with better sound?It reads like a false dichotomy -implying that a tidy room can't sound better than an untidy one. I prefer tidy and clean. At least after the experimenting is laid to rest. Endless chopping an... 
New Omega E Mat from Perfect Path Technologies
Too expensive for me. With respect to the distributor, they are not building these mats in some massive laboratory. They are using off the shelf components and remarketing them at extraordinary markup. I intend to source graphene mats from the man...
