Entry Level MC Recommendations?
I have an Ortofon MC 25 FL for sale - email me if you are interested. Only 5 hours of eval use. 
My Dynavector DV 20 x---High or Low?
I also have a pro-ject phono tube box II with very low hours on the unit, the factory tubes and the upgraded electro-harmonix golds for sale. Unit was replaced under warranty when my other one died. Both the pro-ject and the jasmine have very larg... 
My Dynavector DV 20 x---High or Low?
Jasmine lp2 mkll. Lot of performance for $500 
What turntable, $500 or less
B_limo, I sent you an email about my system that I am selling. 
Best Phono Cable for Ortofon MC Anna
Second on the Mogami. I use 2549 for unbalanced RCA for all of my system. I've heard 2534 is very good for balanced. I use their speaker cables also. 
Results from Eliminating Anti-Skate
Do you have a grooveless record or laser disc with the center hole increased to fit a 45 adapter to test antiskate? 
Screw-down reflex clamps vs. record weights
I like my clever clamp from Clearaudio. Goes on and off quickly and holds the record firmly in place on an acrylic platter. I plan on trying the same clamp if I get a Traveler. 
What turntable, $500 or less
I might be selling my entire Pro-ject Xpression III front end that was recently serviced at a local dealer. It also includes a phono tube box II that is only a couple months old and has upgraded tubes. It also includes a speed box I. I have made s... 
VPI Traveler vs Pro-ject Xpression III?

VPI Traveller
@Jarcher and @Regismc, do you feel you noticed more and tighter bass upgrading to the Traveler?When I upgraded my phono preamp from the Pro-ject Tube Phono Box II with upgraded tubes to the Jasmine LP2.0 mkII, the bass definitely tightened up (les... 
Anyone using a Rubato Copper turntable mat?
@James, post some picts? 
Dead Can Dance Does it Again
Got this yesterday. Like what I'm hearing so far and the clear vinyl is cool. 
pro-ject tube box 2, vincent pho-8, jasmine LP2mk2
Added the Harrison attenuators last night and the LP 2mkII went to another level because the channels are matched correctly now. Is a really good matchup and would recommend this setup strongly. :) 
Speaker cables or interconnects??
Mogami 2549 for interconnects and Mogami 2921 for speaker cable. You can get both for a rather inexpensive amount. I use Audioquest BFAs on all the 2921 speaker cable ends and the Pro-Fi connectors on the 2549 ICs. The less expensive Neutrik conne...
