Turntable speed accuracy
For $400, the timeline needs to be built with an internal clamp so that it will fit any spindle. 
Well Tempered Amadeus Options
Oscar, last I checked, I believe Don Better has both tables (albeit the GTA has the Dynavector arm) and he also has the power supply. You should be able to listen to both. Trust your ears but also consider that Don is a professional musician and p... 
Yamamoto YDA 01 DAC
Has anyone heard or considered the Acoustic Plan DAC? It is a NOS architecture with separate power supply and discrete tube output stage.I heard the Acoustic Plan DAC recently and was impressed. Staehli, you might find this more to your tastes but... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Hi All, perhaps I missed much of the discussion. I haven't followed the thread in quite a while (perhaps 50 pages or so). I would offer up the vintage Pickering 380 as a superb example and still quite under the radar. Perhaps I mistakenly assume t... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Does this topic only address high compliance mm's? Certainly a few low compliance items have not been mentioned. 
Zu Omen or Tekton Lore
What did you say? I say try again! 
Zu Omen or Tekton Lore
For some varied experience...even though the Lore's sensitivity seems to be accurate, we are using the Lores with a Naim Nait 5i and a Naim CD5/Flatcap. The combination is stunning! All components were bought used for around $2,500 and I am amazed...

Pi speakers, at the risk of a pedant crucifying me.http://www.pispeakers.com/contents.htmlIf I were you, I would rent a van if you don't have very large vehicle and drive to get 19s. 
Has anyone heard of Volti Audio?
Yes, I have. What speakers did you get and how are they? 
Standalone Shindo phono stage?

"Best" DAC for a grand or less
Chicagojtw, we don't hear in a straight line so what's the point? 
Shindo Cortese - First Impressions
Hi Keithr,I found myself quite relaxed after listening to it. The Montrachet was rich and romantic sounding. There did not seem to be as much prat (pardon, if you can subscribe to such a term) as the Cortese or the Montille. There is one problem w... 
Shindo Cortese - First Impressions
Charles, he said was keeping the Montille so he will likely be returning to it (and then back to the Cortese...what a luxury). The point was more that all of these amps are terrific and have their own pedigree. I think Alberto is wise to keep the ...
