| Opinions wanted on cantilever alignment "Surprised you didn't call Day One. That never would have made it out of the box with me".I hadn't had a cartridge with the cantilever exposed like this one until now. Also when deciding which cartridge I was going to buy I read up on different ca... | |

| Cartridge recommendations under $2500 The Lyra Kleos is outstanding IMO. Im running one on a VPI Super Prime Scout however it’s $3700. Loading changes are very noticeable, and with my Manley Chinook PS there are many loading options. A bit more than your $2500 budget.Maybe try a Lyra ... | |
| Amplifier upgrade advice under $2000 OP, I have a Parasound A23 driving a pair of Klipsch Forte II in my second system and it is a great match with more than enough power to really make them sing.I'm seeing A23's used for about $700 125w 8ohms 225w 4ohms. Then there is the A21 I see ... | |

| Are there any tube amps that don't give off any--- Musical Fidelity has amplifiers with Nu-Vista tubes. From what I understand they were being developed as a new tube technology but was shelved due to the invention of the transistor. I mention these because they look nothing like a traditional tub... | |
| Need Tubes I don't care for current production tubes. For me NOS is the only way to go. I get mine from Vintage tube services /Andy Bowman or Brent Jesse Recording / Brent Jesse.Good luck | |
| Cartridge recommendation please... My second turntable is a Technics SL1200 MKII and I found a good match in your price range to be the Ortofon 2M Bronze. It has a nude fine line stylus. It digs out more music from the groove than the lower priced 2M blue which has an elliptical st... | |
| VPI Classic 3 Upgrades or Move On to Something New I have a VPI Super Prime Scout with a Lyra Kleos. I have my eye on a Prime Signature with the gimbaled arm. Rather than upgrade the super prime to the gimballed arm for $4000 I would rather spend $6500 and get the P Sig with the arm and the nicer ... | |
