| SAEC Making Tonearms Again! The original SAEC's had too little offset angle! Wonder if the new versions correct this? | |
| Dynamics varying with track position. Lowest distortion will be at the two null points - where the stylus is MOST tangent to the grooves. This applies to ALL pivoted arms! The emphasis on the left channel could be a problem with the anti-skate mechanism on your tonearm. Try adjusting ... | |
| Advice needed on Amp Keep the Parasound amp and change the speakers! | |
| How many fuses in a McIntosh MC275? Jeez, more soup to nuts about fuses! | |
| Why are my woofers pumping? +1 tkr and stereo5! A well designed subsonic filter (KAB) will do wonders for bass in your system! | |
| Advice needed on Amp I can recommend the Ohm Micro Walsh's as a great upgrade for your small room! They will work well with your present components and offer 3-d imaging with "you are there" realism! I own the larger Walsh's and would expect the smaller versions to ha... | |
| Rotel Power Amp gone awry Considering its age I would replace it with a current production amp - Bryston, Odyssey, Parasound ... | |

| How much do I need to spend to get a preamp that sounds better than no preamp? Mark Levinson ML7! | |
| Best Class A / Class AB SS Power Amplifiers between $5000-$10,000 I vote for the Spread Spectrum Ampzilla 2000 Mono's! The last and best design from the late James Bongiorno! | |
| Enough power to drive my speakers? +1 elevick! The Legacy's will work and sound best with a 100 watt (or more!) amp. Remember that a 10db increase in volume requires 10X more power (watts). And the Line Magnetic's highish output impedance (several ohms!) will not allow it to have a... | |
| Confused about Rega and VTA.... SRA (stylus rake angle) is more important than VTA! And this is set just once for a particular tonearm/cartridge. Fiddling with VTA for every LP is a waste of time and detracts from your listening enjoyment! Set the SRA properly just once and forg... | |
