| Quick and free fuse tweak @threeeasypayments I updated post. I have a bag of fuses and tried it with and without on the phono preamp. Definite improvement like a rightness about the sound. Sounds faster. | |
| Electricity enhancer @audiosens Thanks. Well described improvements. | |
| Electricity enhancer @sleepwalker65 Not funny.I have not tried these but there seems to be a lot of interest in Graphene recently in shielding and noise reduction in power supplies. What sort of improvement did you experience? | |
| How many turntable’s have you owned? So skip the long process then and go for broke! Good luck. | |
| TT on Symposium Super Segue - slate or maple underneath? Seeing as you already have a wooden rack in the equation, try the Segue on the slate only. | |

| A new turntable under 500-700euros Are you sure you can stand it? The clicks and pops? The better your front end, the less you hear them because the sound extracted is at a greater ratio of music to noise. Anyhow, look at the Pioneer PLX500 or 1000 with a Nagaoka MP110. You'll need... | |
| Tube amp troubles Sure there is. You could have a damaged passive component that is overheating or out of spec such that it is breaking down enough to trigger a protection circuit. You could open it up and do a visual inspection but it is unlikely you'll see anythi... | |
| Tube amp troubles Switch the "low power pre-amp" tubes from left to right and see if the fault follows. | |

| Stylus not tracking and sounds terrible I had the same type of thing happen with an Ortofon MC3. The cantilever was always a little bit skewed to one side but it played perfectly for years on my second rig. Then I noticed the skew angle increased a tiny bit more and by the next day it w... |
