What a sad world we now live in.......
Hey, I feel the same as uberwaltz. I love my physical media. Not knocking streaming, it saves a lot of space, but I like my cds, sacds and lps.

Yes the stands are included. 
Take up drums at age 56?
I watched a few videos about the fulcrum and holding the sticks properly just now, and some were good, but they did not explain that the three fingers ( your middle finger to your pinky ) are not supposed to be snug on the stick. They are supposed...

I forgot one thing. of course the first thing you have to learn is how to hold the sticks properly using the fulcrum. You can look it up online. 
Take up drums at age 56?
A practice pad and a metronome is essential. Learn how to read music. Start with the syncopation for the modern drummer book which is a beginner book. You also need to learn basic exercises and rudiments. After that just practice as much as you ca... 
Rega RP3 or Mofi Studio Deck ?
I don't hear any difference in sound using the Auralax with the Mofi. It sound the same as it did without the platform. I first tried some inexpensive isolation blocks, they helped a little with the footfall problem, but I noticed a slight loss of... 
Rega RP3 or Mofi Studio Deck ?

Rega RP3 or Mofi Studio Deck ?

Power Cable ~ $300 - Which to get? Nordost, Audioquest, Furutech, Shunyata, Zavfino?
There are a lot of good power cords available mentioned above. I haven't tried that many of the ones mentioned but they do make a huge difference. I have a whole set of Shunyata Venom HC power cords. The difference from stock cables is dramatic. I... 
Does anyone know anything about the audio dealer True Audiophile ?
I don't see anyone trashing True Audiophile here. I inquired information and was given a couple of real experiences people had with you. The ones that did not know anything about you stated that and not in negative ways. Instead of being defensive...

Thanks for all of your feedback. You guys are great.  
Does anyone know anything about the audio dealer True Audiophile ?
Yeah, they had a good deal on a demo Mofi Ultra Deck but I was leary because I never heard of them before. The website and the amount of products they carry was also strange. I will call Echo Audio because I am curious about them. Thanks guys. I'l...

The Ortofon Bronze sounds good as I will probably buy the Studio deck because of the build quality. It seems to have better isolation.
