| What tonearm will better mine? Thanks cjaronica. It looks like it means dismantling the arm off the table. Interesting though. | |
| Bad news for audiophiles? The worst part is when people think they have to spend 20% of their budget on cables. | |
| What tonearm will better mine? Thanks all. No one has actually explained what sort of specific improvements one should expect from a new (expensive) arm. I think I'll order the low-slung counterweight and carbon fiber headshell for the Jelco for the moment and spend the differe... | |
| Dynaudio C1 compared to Harbeth Super HL5 plus? Nope. | |
| What tonearm will better mine? Chakster, nice set-up. Thanks for tge info. What improvements would there be over the Jelco with my Decca SG-P? | |
| Components I would have died for when I was a wee pup Any record player after I saw and heard my dad’s friend’s Philips Black Tulip quadraphonic? set up. Dad had no interest in a "music center" so we had no records in the house. | |

| Is the "standard" Linn Sondek LP-12 surpassed by newer turntable brands and designs?? Great reply moonglum. I keep my 80's LP12 Valhalla Ittok on standby in case I get fed up with my 401.
