Pani ... New ART-9 up and running ...
j_damon - I don't know how common it is to have a bent canti, but I just received my Art-9 today and it is perfectly straight. Not sure what cart you're coming from but to me it's worth the price already, even before break-in.

Klyne vs 47 Labs phono stage
Klyne’s products have a pretty good reputation and usually sell quickly. I’d say buy the 6 and do a comparison and if it’s a no go then resell. I have a 6PE stand alone phono and although I think it’s excellent (I bought it used for $700) I compar...

Why Audiophiles need cats .. watch short video
Now that is pretty funny...and so obvious. How many audiophile/cat lovers are saying, "Why didn't I think of that?!?"Thanks for posting 
Rega RP8 and alternatives in $3000-4000 range
