| Analogue Synergy....Which is the best Cartridge? This one's for Doug Deacon: Them low output moving coils owe quite a lot of their performance to the MASSIVE bodies that absorb resonances. A Vinyl Asylum inmate from Belgium has just received one of my non-resonant, Caribbean Moca wood blocks. Th... | |
| Analogue Synergy....Which is the best Cartridge? The round and eliptical diamond tips on them Denons are a cost cutting measure to sell at particular price points. The customer records' life span is shortened because of this (and in no short measure with a round). I mean, you even have an 'audio... | |
| Analogue Synergy....Which is the best Cartridge? Two more recommending a round diamond tip! Shame shame... | |
| Who has Caps on their AC lines ??? Are we having a cold war here? Pun intended... | |
| Analogue Synergy....Which is the best Cartridge? Why do people keep recommending a cartridge with a *round* diamond tip? Next to a ceramic cartridge it will cause the heaviest record wear!*** | |

| Need an Entry Level Phono Preamp Smart move. You eliminate the purchase (and shipping costs) of a chassis, power supply, interconnects, power cord, etc. Everything stays in place inside a well designed, ruggedly built, quality preamp. As a plus, the sonic signature stays the same... | |

| Need an Entry Level Phono Preamp If Bryston makes a phono board for your pre that would be the most sensible (and direct) way to go. With the money saved you can get a real good power cord for the pre, like the Absolute MKII (have it cryo'ed) and a nice set of cones (I use DH con... | |

| opinions on swan speakers I had Dan Wright modify my Swans M1's. Killer. | |
| Has anyone heard the new Sistrum or Stage Stands? huh huh??? Just kidding. Thank you for the reply. I wonder how much better this new design than the old ones?It's not going to beat my non resonant, Caribbean Moca wood boards and Goldmund cones combo. Never.*** | |
| upgrade TT or speakers?? I say upgrade your power delivery/noise control, if you have any. If none, then it's a good time to start. | |
| The Cartridgeman Isolater. Nature will beat Cartridge man. Moca wood will win. | |
| The Cartridgeman Isolater. I'm about to send a 2" x 2" x 3/4" block of non resonant, Caribbean Moca wood to a moderator in another audio forum. He's going to cut 1/8" thick pieces and install them between headshell and cartridges. That's going to be real interesting. Four o... |
