| Am I really smart or really stupid? Dear Jake42: In the 70's and early 80's ( like you say ) there was many high-end manufacturers with exelent products, your Yamaha was not one of that products.Examples: Audio research, Beveridge, Eidolon Research, Mcintosh, Threshold, etc... and m... | |
| Am I really smart or really stupid? Hi Jake: I don´t think that the high-end manufacturers want" put their hands on my pocket " ( as you told ). Companies, like Yamaha, Pioneer, NAD, etc...., sold thousands of units every month and the high-end companies sold hundreds of units for y... | |

| OK...I'm getting ready to buy a new Phono pre amp. Hi Rwd: I think that is not a very good idea to buy the phono preamp that Topoxforddoc told you. I explain why:- first: both units ( Comet and meteor ) are an outboard phono stage, so the signal has to goes trough additionals cables and connectors... | |

When you already have this cartridge then you can think in the phono preamp.Always enjoy the music.Raul. | |
| Graham and Shelter matching - and other arms/carts Hi Dickson: The Ikeda 9 Rex is not an " easy " cartridge to get the best on it. Till now I try with some tonearms: Ikeda IT 407, SAEC 506/30, SME IV ( it does not works with this one ), Micro Seiki MAX 282 and AudioCraft AC 4400. All these tonearm... | |

| Best Cartridge for VPI Aries orig + JMW 10.5 ? Dear Banjofan: I agree with Ljgj, the Celebration is a great cartridge. It is in the same league that cartridges that cost 2-3 times more. It is much better than the Helikon for less money.Regards and enjoy the music.Raul. | |
| Top phono cartrige to match jfrech's system ... Hi Jfrech: Tks Doug. As a fact I own the 90X, too, ( I buy this one in place of the 901 that I had it ). As I already told, somewhere in this forum, the 901 is in the HiFi side of music reproduction, the 90X is more refinided but still has a littl... | |
| Best Cartridge for VPI Aries orig + JMW 10.5 ? Hi Twl: I agree with you in that all tonearm types have their deficiencies ( all in this life have a trade-off ) and I agree, too, that the tonearm stability is an important parameter for the cartridge matching.My experiencies tell me that if you ... | |

The issue here is only: low compliance cartridges with an unipivot tonearms:I have some experience with unipivot tonearms ( I own five of these ) and I try with low compliance cartridges: Denon, Shelter, Koetsu, Vict... | |
| Top phono cartrige to match jfrech's system ... Dear Jfrech: As I told you all these cartridges are a great ones and all of them goes fine with the SME IV ( I alredy try on it ). But the Koetsu RSP and the Dynavector are low output cartridges and I think that the Titan goes better with your pre... | |
| Graham and Shelter matching - and other arms/carts Dear Patrick: Taking ( like a absolutely true ) what 4yanx told you , I think that before you change your arm or the Shelther you have to ask to your Graham dealer what he think is happen ( maybe your tonearm has an internally problem. Who knows ?... | |
| VTA Q: Rega P25 with Clearaudio Aurum Beta S Hi Doug: You told us that to adjust the VTA/VTF the only way is by ear. Well as you already know there are others ways to do it in a best way: ONE - Invert the polarity in one chanel, put your preamp in mono way ( switch ), put a mono record and l... | |
| What LPs do you use for VTA adjustment Doug: I think that you don't understand my point of view,that I already explain to you and to our friend 4yanx,the issue is not if you are correcting what I say ( there is no problem with it. You have the rights for doing that. ) the issue is that... |
