| How Do Left & Right Brains Like AT ART9 vs Dynavectors 17D3, XX2, XX2mkII vs Ortofons @thom_mackris Thanks for chiming in, Thom. Your products and your posts always fascinate. Your comment re: effective mass is interesting as my EPA-250 comes in at 14g too. A few have told me the 17D3 is a bit of the black sheep in the Dyna family ... | |
| Worst record ever? Maybe, but the Barry Gibb Talk Show skits on SNL with Jimmy Fallon & Justin Timberlake are one of the best ever! Cheers,Spencer | |

| Leonard Cohen...RIP.... He had so much to say, and said it so well. The great sound quality of so many of his recordings is just the icing on the cake. He will always be with us as his music is timeless. Cheers,Spencer | |
| Technics EPA-250 Cartridge Matching Concerns @lewm It's amazing all that there is to learn! Just today I went through a panic when the seller told me basically that there is no room on the EPA-250 for an "additional weight" and that the arm I'm buying only has one weight. I sent him pdf of t... | |
| Help Choosing Speakers Open baffles will be better away from the wall, and with absorption or diffusion panels on the wall behind them. Cheers,Spencer | |
| How Do Left & Right Brains Like AT ART9 vs Dynavectors 17D3, XX2, XX2mkII vs Ortofons @ninetynine If you could only keep one of those, which one & why? Cheers,Spencer | |
