| High Performance Moving Iron Cartridge Candidates? As someone mentioned up thread, a new Nagaoka is coming out in a month and would seem to fit the bill (assuming Nag’s bill is more than their TOL but far less than anything Air Tight). Based on the MP500, I’m in. I was about to buy a new Decca a ... | |
| Technics 1300G on it's way !! @rpeluso Thanks again for taking the time to reply...much appreciated! | |
| Technics 1300G on it's way !! @rpeluso Are you using the low or high output version of the Grado Reference 3? Any notable strengths or weaknesses? TIA | |
| Turntable Mats for Technics Grand Class, "G" Series @mofimadness @lewm @wrm57 Thanks for replying. I ordered the BAM and the SPEC+ mat…should be an interesting comparison. | |
| Turntable Mats for Technics Grand Class, "G" Series For users of the Boston Audio/Sakura graphite mat: no concerns about/experience with the mat scratching your records? | |
| Progress at londondecca.com @dogberry Thank you for the response...but a 300+ page thread sounds more like Lenco Hell, no? Lol...will definitely check it out. @bdp24 Funny you say that because 'Brit synergy,' in a way, is what encouraged my interest/the question. Acc... | |
| Progress at londondecca.com Any thoughts on the new Deccas and compatibility with the standard 1200G tonearm? I'm assuming a love match but would appreciate feedback from others. Thanks in advance. | |

| Klipsch Cornwall IV and Luxman Integrated @bjesien That’s a really useful comparison...thanks! @superelmar Or Tonapparate Model 50? | |
| Klipsch Cornwall IV and Luxman Integrated @superelmar I've had a Leben CS300XS with Forte IVs for about a year. I enjoyed the combination enough to want MORE, so I ordered a Leben CS600X and am currently looking for speakers that can build on the immediacy and scale of the Fortes. @bjes... | |
| Phasemation cart on Technics @gochurchgo As @lewm mentioned, the sound will change as the cartridge breaks in. Hopefully you like where you end up. Best of luck! | |
| Phasemation cart on Technics @gochurchgo Yeah, sorry, aux weight too. The rest of the system consists of a Leben EL84 amp and Leben tube phono through Klipsch Forte IV speakers. | |
| Phasemation cart on Technics @gochurchgo I’m not a cartridge guru, but I am using the Phasemation PP-500 on a Technics 1210G (stock arm) with a Phasemation CS-1200 headshell (13.7g) and Oyaide BR12 mat (5mm). I’m definitely enjoying what I’m hearing... Also, I believe the lo... |
