| I damanged my Shelter cartridge, next steps?.... I am late to the thread but, boy do I have a story. Years ago I bought a Benz Glider. Few weeks later, while dusting the tip went bye-bye. For a $300 fee I got a replacement. Few months later I did the same thing and paid another $300. I used it f... | |

| Ph.D. or Cat SL 1 I am not a CAT owner. I use a Benz PP-1, which I prefer to the CAT I borrowed. The question was CAT or PHD. IMO the PHD is crap. I have nothing further to say. | |
| Ph.D. or Cat SL 1 I owned the PHD for a month. Had a CAT SLI-MK2 on loan. No contest, CAT without a doubt. | |
| Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better? Can't imagine that anyone would EVER place an order with Richard after reading his insulting comments. | |
| Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better? Why not start your own "Digital Modifiers" forum on a different website. | |
| Cary SLP 2002 or Joule LA 100 Mk III or?w/PassX250 Oldpet, you snuck ahead of me. I was speaking to Claud. Don't give up, the great thing about tube pre's is the flexibilty to alter the sound. | |
| Cary SLP 2002 or Joule LA 100 Mk III or?w/PassX250 Are you going to move from your SLP-98 to the new SLP-05? | |
| Ayre V-5x vs. McCormack DNA 225 I think no feedback may have some sonic advantage in solid state line level applications. Especially digital sources. That is what I have heard in my own home. Playing vinyl thru zero feedback power amps just doesn't cut it for several reasons. I ... | |
| Audio Research Ref 3 Opinions Still uses a digital volume control................>>red flag. | |
| Ayre V-5x vs. McCormack DNA 225 I am not a fan of the so called "zero feedback" approach to power amplifiers. The light weight bass is a deviation from neutrality (not able to present flat frequency response). Why start out with something that needs to be corrected. | |
| Cary SLP 2002 or Joule LA 100 Mk III or?w/PassX250 The SLP-2002 was designed for use with tube amps that have a high input sensitivity and low gain. Rather than use 6FQ7/6CG7 tubes that reduce gain. You could send the pre-amp back to Cary. They will install some resistors in the volume control cir... | |
| Cary SLP 2002 or Joule LA 100 Mk III or?w/PassX250 I have an SLP-2002 that Cary made a minor mod to. The gain stage has been loaded down to give more range on the volume control. If you have a solid state amp, this will be a great match. Far prefer the Cary to any of the ARC pre-amps that use the ... | |
| Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better? I listened to an interesting cd player the other day at a home based dealer. It was a new model from MBL and I think the model # was 1531. The retail is around 8k. Top loading and built like a tank. Something else to check out if anyone is looking... | |
| Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better? Alex, I would like to know if your 6H30 circuit can support these two tubes. 6N1P and 6CG7. I use a tube linestage designed to take 6H30 and can sub, without any problem those two tubes. And if you have a bias or filament pot inside, the 6922/6dj8... |
