| BAT vk-p3 phono install I did this on a VK-30. the tricky part is cutting or removing some "0 ohm resitors". I had to buy my board through a dealer within the state, who determined I was capable to do install it myself. Maybe you could get a local dealer to do the instal... | |
| Are all external hard drives the same? Since I backup the music files on my PC anyway, I use the USB external drive hooked to the USB input on my BDP-95. I presume the hard drive is controlled by the OPPO. Does this make it effectivly asynchronus? If not, what is it called? Can someone... | |

| Moving magnet hum Thanks for the replies. I went ahead and removed the ground tab from the green (right ground) pin, and it solved the problem. It seems this tab was causing a ground loop with the well grounded tonearm. No SUT was used for the LOMCs as the Aleph ON... | |

| What is the best power cord for pass labs xa100.5? Be careful with aftermarket power cords on Pass amps. On my Aleph 0s the iec female is inside of 10mm of milled steel.

| Rabco SL-8E Tone Arm Everything still works, the lateral servo with chain drive, the lift/lower motor, rca to cartridge clip continuity etc. As I remember, it should not be used with a low output, low compliance moving coil, due to the low tonearm mass and servo servo... | |

| vibration counter weight Go to a dive shop & see if you can still find lead diving weights (cheap), wrap with vinyl tape and glue felt on the bottom. You can move around to find the balance point. | |
| Focus on 24/192 Misguided?..... The article seems right, as far as the author goes. He admits to the problem of brick wall filters on Redbook CD, but he forgets to mention timing errors. This is why a cirrectly clocked computer regenerated waveform seems to improve on the CD, th... | |
| dts 5.1 fold down to stereo better than cd? Click the "i" button on your Oppo remote and it will tell you whether the source is dts or mlp as well as the sampling. I presume you are linked to a monitor as the default layer of a DVD-A without selecting could be anything depending on the disc... |
