| Vinyl Lovers-- Cartridges!!!! Do you have a daily driver? Interesting conversation. I echo Lyra + meticulously cared for records. I have a Lyra Delos in the Perfect Vinyl Forever lab that has to have 3000 hours. I have it professionally inspected and cleaned annually. No need to re-tip yet. Lyra Etna La... | |
| what is more popular silver or black face plates Mixed…all my Audio Research gear (phono, line stage, amp) is in silver as I’m a traditionalist.

| For Vandersteen owners & lovers: Which other brands do you like? Top tip for the Vandy lovers with external subs (2WQ or Sub3), I recently upgraded my M5-HP filters to M5-HP TEF filters. This is the same high pass filter circuit and capacitors used in RV’s M7-HP filters in a more modest enclosure. The differenc... | |
| Silver Speaker Cables While I can’t recommend a budget cable, I can offer insights from my journey of moving from copper based cables to an entire silver interconnect signal path. My most recent move is this past week where I upgraded my speaker cables from Audioquest ... | |
| Has anyone compared old to new Audioquest Cables??? I ran bi-wired Rocket 88s between my ARC REF110 and Vandersteen 3A Signatures for about 18 months.
