Setting anti-skate
Just my two cents.--Doug IS right!!I'm sure he knows that antiskate does impact sound,and of course we all want to adjust to "almost perfection".Yet it cannot be done,and the linear approach IS superior in my own experience,YET I agree that we are...

BTW,Nsgarsh...I love the bass enclosure configuration,you use with the "Classic"(fabs)Martin Logans.Sort of reminds me of my old(yet not forgotten)Infinity speakers,which my friend was smart enough to keep,and modify.Still SOTA in SO many ways. Best!

Nsgarsh,Oh "now" I get it!Sorry if I seemed a bit slow,on the uptake. Tim,I have no idea,as of now,but am setting up an Orpheus very soon.I'll post my "opinion",at that time. Best!

"There is so much room to improve and refine this smart new Transfiguration design.By comparison,the traditional designs have basically hit a performance ceiling."!! TRADITIONAL??.. BOY,Nsgarsh....I'm not SO convinced it is really all that academi...

Nsgarsh,for my business,I had five Taurus wagons,over thirteen years(leases).Total repair costs,from defective problems, was literally less than 150 dollars,combined!! As to the cartridge issue.THANKS!!This "IS" the guy,and the 2750 price is not a...

Well,I do believe my pal is about to order his Orpheus!I have a few questions,and do believe Nsgarsh may be of help,if you can.Please! Nsgarsh,you make mention of the dealer,selling this design,new,for 2650.Is this the same guy who has been E-mail... 
Marten Design Miles II vs Avalon Opus Ceramique..?
Rich,you are a breath of fresh air!!Someone liking what he has,and knowing it is good. There are loads of compelling speaker/component matches,as I am sure you know.What you own,is superb,and you should be happy with that. The Opus vs the Ceramic ... 
Nova Utopia Be $38K - Are they good?
It's really funny,as to room/component architecture affecting our "opinions" as to what is good. I SO want to like the Watt/Puppy,but have never heard them to my satisfaction.I've really tried!I must have resolution,coupled with a real involvement... 
Tracking Force Gauges
Hey fellas,an interesting point,and something I can look forward to "scoping out".......Since my circuit breaker box was damaged in the lightning strike(eluding my audio room,thankfully),the electrician doing the new work,and providing a far bette... 
Tracking Force Gauges
Something I had mentioined in the past,and worth repeating.I had compared the 95 dollar guage(I have it too)to my pal's Winds guage.The Winds guage is built like a tank.It has proven very useful,to my friend.It also,weighs a ton,and exudes quality...

Has any one heard Magico Speakers?
I feel the reason Mr. Valin did not include a Kharma comparison was so as NOT to burn bridges.Let's face it.He got a load of Kharma stuff for extended use.My perspective was to read between the lines.Owning a superb sealed box design,myself(Avalon...

Thanks again,to the fine folks here!!My kharma has been SO bad,that my home was hit(Thursday evening)by a lightning strike.It took out a load of stuff,YET thankfully my dedicated audio room seems to have been untouched."Thanks Dad"! Due to all the...

My pal is about to move up to an Orpheus.He,like me,has a Temper-V,which I set up for him.We both have very similar systems,with identical phonostages/pre's(actually everything is exactly the same,except speakers.He Kharma.Me Avalon),so I will do ...
