| Curious about the difference in what I’d hear on different tonearms Look at the Rega-based Audiomods tonearms for a definite upgrade. You'll get a more incisive and stable sound, free from the speakers, with more air, dimensionality, and color. | |
| Seller Beware??? It's not a city. And the US isn't a rip- off nation? | |
| Atma-Sphere, Dynaco ST 70 Great. Reconditioned vintage tube amps with good iron are hard to beat. My two sets of monoblocs are vintage. | |
| Which amp would you go with The Musical Fidelity. Or a Croft Integrated. There's a non- phono version too. Upgrade it's tube(s) to Telefunkens and have an almost "Shindo-level" amp. | |

| My tube amp causes isolation transformer to buzz It's buzzing under the relatively heavy load as the coil is energized by the alternating current. You could try the ubiquitous red $110 20A 2000watt model. | |
| Subwoofer location/facing question A sub loads the room. It doesn't or is not intended to be firing at you. Corner placement is the more efficient place to do this. | |
| Disappointing On Mcintosh......help Your mind thinks one thing, yet your ears tell you otherwise. Move on. | |
| As good as it gets Why do you ask? Does it not sound good? Are you hoping it improves? | |
| Atma-Sphere, Dynaco ST 70 Big results with a little work. Any idea what they actually did? |
