| Well Tempered/CROFT/Harbeth...London SG or NAGAOKA @fnj04 "When she was good, she was very, very good, but when she was bad, she was horrid."

| Term for an LP that is about the quality you'd expect to pull out of a dollar bin? Yeah. Good + | |
| Phono stage hum Try using a cheater plug on the amp. This removes the ground connection and therefore the loop. | |

| Opinions Please - Which Turntable Rack is Better See mine in VS. I plan to replace it with a 2x2 paving slabs and bricks. | |
| Is it possible to mount cartridge without using a protractor? Yes. | |
| Opinions Please - Which Turntable Rack is Better Is the rack between the speakers? If so, the larger one will further impact negatively imaging. | |
| Yanni or Laurel? Can this be included on a test LP? | |
| Jelco TK-850L review Listened for another 15 hours. The clasp is annoying. I have to lock it every time I rest it. The bearings are VERY free moving. One tiny touch and off it goes so be careful. I do not use anti-skating on 12" arms.I'm not sure why but with the same... | |
| RECORDS THAT HAVE IMPRESSED PEOPLE SO MUCH THEY BOUGHT MY STEREO Dug out Talk Talk ’The Colour of Spring’.Bought it when it came out in the 80s. Great studio analog recording and a seminal album of the New Romantic genre. Sounds better than ever. Great percussion and bass. |
