| Interconnect question for Naimies Hi Springbok,A comment from the uk - I am not a big Naim fan but all my mates are - to a man they all swear by Kimber KCAG between their cd players & amps (all NAIM).Russ Andrews does this in the uk so it's obviously workable.As they upgrade t... | |

| Best MC for a Linn/Syrinx Hi John,Thanks for all that.As you say the Linn is very susceptible to the tone arm cable & the 'bounce' is not as good after fooling with the arm height so I will need to realign the springs - these are fairly recent ones.The syrinx badly nee... | |
| Best MC for a Linn/Syrinx Hi John,re vta for the Grado - I have set the suspension on the Linn and it's sounding nice but trying to get a balanced sound via the vta & tracking weight is driving me nuts.The best' balance' has the arm pillar set with the arm running uphi... | |

| Best MC for a Linn/Syrinx Hi John,The syrinx was a pain to set up but the Grado sounds amazingly good on the linn! To many years of mega money mc's.Roksan want £295 if they can source a new motor - I am looking at alternatives - I could amlomost buy a recon car engine for ... | |
| Best MC for a Linn/Syrinx Hi John,Thanks for all that. The Grado sounds very nice on the Linn.The arm is indeed one b--r of a thing to set up !It is very musical and I may try the acoire - not until the arm has been re-wired though - the originals are a dogs breakfast.As t... | |
| Camlet Lancelot Vs MS Phonomena Cheers Monk,for a very detailed reply. I was intending to use a zxy which is possibly a bit low output but this is just a stop gap.Does the power supply need powered all the time - I am in the uk & was hoping just to use a transformer (240-120... | |

| Pass Lab X1 and X250 - Which XLR? Jim,KAS audio often auction pairs of their Maestro cables.If you could win a pair these are exceptional value for the money.I have two pairs which compare favourably to Kimber Select KS-1030.Other than that I would recommend used Kimber.Rgds Simon | |
