Clement Perry's new reference speaker
I asked this question earlier,without a reply.I'll ask it again...could someone please mention what horn system Mr Perry alluded to,when he claimed it was the finest sounding speaker system he had heard. What's the mystery?I am simply curious,and ... 
Great Cartridge for Graham Phantom
Minimum level is fine.Just add or subtract a tiny bit at a time,for perfection.Based on YOUR tastes. Good luck

Larry,good point about the jig.I always "average out" the set-up jig,by hand when adjusting this.I said,to myself,that if I ever actually receive my Phantom,I will attempt to re-check the set-up,with other devices too.Yet,the jig is still quite go...

AVguygeorge,I was just kidding!Time to lighten up....

Jdolgin..regarding suggestions under 2500....I have quite a bit of listening experience to the Lyra Helikon.My friend had it for three years,and he is an avid music lover/vinyl collector(mostly Classical/jazz).It IS a fabulous cartridge!!!We had a...

Rich,first off,if you call The Cable Company(800 fatwyre)they offer free home auditions,of stocked units.Exact Power IS in their lending library,I believe. That being said,I run my entire system(except sub,which is on it's own dedicated line)from ... 
Anybody have some experience with Bedini amps?
Fabulous sounding amps(the 25/25 model).My pal had these powering stacked Quad EL 57's,with ribbon tweets between. Very sweet,in the "best" sense. Best of luck. 
Graham Phantom vs Triplaner
Atmosphere I saw extensive photos of "your" room/set-up,at CES 2008.To say it looks impressive would be an understatement!No doubt it must have sounded great!VERY,VERY COOL!!!If the economy had not impacted my business,I'd have made an attempt to ...

Audiofeil,you take my comments too literally,but you are "good" at trying to find something "bad" in many cases. I'll stick with attempting to get the personality of the cartridge,by limiting the potential pitfalls of some arm choices.Doesn't seem... 
Graham Phantom vs Triplaner
BTW,and this WILL be my last post here,as I'm probably getting anoying already!Yet,some "TRI" fans might appreciate this.......Personally I have always loved the look,and design of the Triplanar.That is one reason why I bought one(long ago)when my... 
Graham Phantom vs Triplaner
Atmosphere,point well taken!Also,I'm certainly no mechanical engineer,but I have my own way of viewing things.Based on my wife's observations,they are usually wrong -:) BTW,if I actually find that the Phantom is unavailable for an inordinately lon... 
Graham Phantom vs Triplaner
Atmosphere,I had a Triplanar,and know how good(really so)it is for setting azimuth.In my post,I specifically stated all was "only my opinion".Also,the issue of bearing stability,as how it pertains to maintaining azimuth,with the Phantom/Magna Glid... 
Graham Phantom vs Triplaner
Back on topic(for me),and hopefully with some "opinions" relating to a little "intuitive reasoning".....Also I want to warn you,I am home sick,with not much to do,so this is going to be a "long" post........I am NOT a mega "technical" school perso... 
Graham Phantom vs Triplaner
Sorry that the last two posts got switched around! I may as well add some additional input(hey I have no vinyl replay,until my new arm comes,so I have some time to bore a good majority of you,and I'm home sick). To re-emphasize about the "bass" is...

Btw,as a humorous afterthought...the maxi pump(what I called it)was housed in a closet,in one of three LP rooms(each chocked with amazing LP's).Not in the main audio room.It was on the floor,in between three pillows(used to damp it).Hysterical,in ...
