| Helikon run-in groove problem..... I had the Lyra Helikon mounted on my VPI Aries/10" JMW. Same issue. When I lowered the arm onto the record it would skip the first few grooves. If I lowerd the arm slowly by controlling the rate at which it fell, it would not do this. I had proble... | |
| Amused To Death and Avalon Opus cfb and Albert: I agree with both of you. I should have stated that I am using many CD's and LP's to place my speakers. Not just the "barking dog" CD. My apologies.Dialing in a pair of loudspekers is not easy. Not for me at least. There are not en... | |

| Thoughts on Fidelio I have tried different VTA settings. I have lowered the back of the cart. The brightness does get less, but it is still an issue. I have also varied tracking force from 1.65g to 1.75g, with the lower force sounding better. I am not using any acous... | |

| Cartridge recs for VPI JMW arm Please Metaphysics: I have not had the opportunity to listen to the Io with anything other than my Aries. So, I do not know if it is taking full advantage of it or not. All I can say is that the Aries/JMW and Io make an awesome combination. | |
| Cartridge recs for VPI JMW arm Please I have a VPI Aries w/TNT parts and 10" JMW. I have been using a Benz Ruby 2H for a year. Musical and enjoyable. I think the combination works very well. Phono stage is an Aesthetix Io.I also own a Lyra Helikon, but I have not had the opportunity t... | |
| Benz Ruby 2 vs. Van Den Hul Frog I own the Aries w/TNT V platter/bearing, 10" JMW, and AR PH-3 (not the SE). I upgraded to the Ruby H from the Glider. If I were to do it again, which I might, I would go with the Frog. The Ruby H's mids and highs, if setup correctly, will be spect... |
