| Class A Solid State Sound Hi,unless V-fet is used, Mosfet always sounded better to me compared to bi-polar. | |
| Just picked up three new cartridges to play on a KD 500 with Grace 707 with a Shure M75ED. Hi analogvm15,all three of them will be fine mechanically suited to 707.Sonically the Shure will be bright, the Orofon inoffensive and the Empire a better match (consider that 707 is a lively arm). | |

| Tube rolling Question Hi geofkait, most probably and ideally they should sound better but if synergy comes to the mix they will probably don't. As for golden ear status please be open minded and open eared, no biases in audio, try, try, try and try. The best example is... | |

| Tube rolling Question Hi,my friendly advice would be to seek vintage soviet 70's era 6SN7 tubes, your preamp was designed with russian tubes so most likely will sound the best with same kind but from different era. Normally this is the case no matter how much tube roll... | |
| Platter wobble As platter is not stiff you can carefully bend some areas and bring it to shape. It will take some time, even though you may get close enough it will never be perfect. Don't spend your money on buying a new one as wobble will be apparent also. | |
