| Pro-Ject Debut Carbon DC with Ortofon 2M Red Cartridge: BASS sounds 'muddy' The Reason? Don't worry about the cartridge for the moment. What’s the table standing on? Try standing it on a sheet of granite, paving slab or thick glass. Is there a dust cover on it? Remove it. Is it in the firing line of the speakers? Stuck in a corner? A... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Pixies - Surfer Rosa (4AD UK 1988)Damn. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Judy Roderick – Woman Blue (Vangard 1965)Wonderful America country blues which sounds as fresh today as it did 55 years ago. Sadly died at 50 because only the good die young. | |

| Anyone have experience with the Tung Sol 7581a vs. EL34, KT66, KT88, 6L6 Drummer? Then you'll appreciate the new Tung Sol 7581A. Great, clean, snappy bass. Give it about 10-20 hours to sound its best. | |
| The Arm/Cartridge Matching Myth @rauliruegas My jury is out on this one as I don't have the experience to comment on this subject. I've only ever had a few arms. However, I have heard many of his recordings and have no evidence to go by that there was any major issues inherent i... | |
| Sony ta F444es Fuse question Most likely there would be one soldered in there if the amp is running in 250V countries. | |
| Is there a such too much power for speakers? Lose that dealer. | |
| What is the appeal of the Denon 103 cartridges? @billwojo If you were paying attention, I'm replying (and quoting) directly to the OP. |
