| Bang for the Buck Hmmm vintage tubes and ESLs? Lenco L75 or Garrard 401. | |
| Decca cartridge balance output question As the grounds are shared at the cartridge end, I don't believe it would work as intended. | |
| Any Thoughts Or Experience With The NAD PP 4 Phono Pre-amp? It is a reasonably acceptable phono preamp. It’s main claim to fame is that it also digitizes the signal so you can send your vinyl to a computer. Do you need that? If not, why use a device where most of the manufacturer’s expenditure went on bits... | |
| A Not So Funny Thing Happened On The Way to the Tonearm.... Good post. I could feel your angst. Well done. | |
| Woot! Decca cartridge bargain I sent it to John Wright in the UK for a check-up a few months ago. He said it was unused. So an almost NOS Garrott Export with a line contact stylus. Sweet. | |
| Installed bulk foil resistors in phono amp But how high can you go? You can’t keep increasing the value hoping for more and more rejection! Maybe the designer deemed 1k enough.The amp uses 2 diodes in series to bias the cathode. Can you suggest a better way to do this? I’ve seen NiCads and... | |

| Looking for repair service for EAR preamp Sounds like a heat-related problem. If you buy a can of electronics freezer, you can localize the fault by spraying it on specific components until you get it nailed down. Probably a solder joint. | |
| Installed bulk foil resistors in phono amp I've never really had any issues with RFI. Would the higher resistance not attenuate the signal? Or is it negligible compared to the input resistance of the tube? I see there is a 47k on the grid of the next stage. I'd repace a lot more but it's a... | |
| Bang for the Buck For simple "bang for the buck" systems, check out Steve Guttenberg's Audiophiliac videos on YouTube. | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 I agree....but how much of that we can attribute to the DD Victor over the Belt-Drive Raven, I don't know?Possibly more than you'd think. That's why I'd love to hear the LDR on the JVC. I listened to a Raven for hours at AXPONA and the system had ... | |
| How good is the Micro Seiki DDX-1000 Direct Drive turntable ? Big reputation. Watch for speed accuracy. Dried out electrolytics. | |
| cartridge for SME 3009 Series 2 NON improved arm 1. Detachable headshell2. Experiment3. Use what sounds best. | |
| Installed bulk foil resistors in phono amp @atmasphere Shuguang Black 12AX7LS. Beats my Telefunkens. | |
| Coupling Capacitor upgrade? Which one first? RIFA 450 are inexpensive and better than Wima. But try 3.3uF and 4.7uF Jupiter Copper foil wax if you want the best. |
