Brinkmann vs TW Acustic
Don't know much about TW but there has been much posted regarding Brinkmann belt drive accuracy. 
Brinkman Spyder review- anyone hear it?
We have yet to see a Brinkmann belt drive table that was perfectly speed correct based on the Timeline. The Bardo proved otherwise. How would that affect the sound? Depends on how sensitive your pitch is. 
Lampizator question
I also have a BIG 6 loaded for sale....going up the Lampizator line! Selling at 50% off and there's no waiting! 
Audio Research VT 100 MKIII
I understand the MKIII is a LOT simpler to bias, anyone have how the MKIII gets biased? 
Brinkmann Bardo
I went from a Bardo with 10" Brinkmann arm to a Kuzma Stabi with 4Point arm and the Kuzma set-up is more focused, detailed and has more weight! All in all a big win. 
Quad ESL-63 and low-powered amps; Sun Audio, Atma
We recently sold a customer who ownes these speakers a pr of Atma M60's then a few months later he upgraded to the new Atma Novacrons. When we went to set-up the Novacrons he still didn't have enough vol to get the speakers to sing. It wasn't the ... 
Anti-cables Level 3 v. Acoustic Zen products
A friend bought the Anti cables level 3 a while back and he brought them to my place for a listen. He ended up selling them for AZ cables which were fuller sounding and had better top to bottom extension. He has since moved on from the AZ but for ... 
Acoustic Zen Crescendo Mk2 or Daedalus Ulysses v2
Mtrot I think if you ask dealers you will get some great discounts, we have always been better than buying direct from AZ and yes we know he sells direct into areas where there are no dealers. Call around and give some dealers a try. 
Acoustic Zen Crescendo Mk2 or Daedalus Ulysses v2
About 9 months back I was struggling between the Daedalus and AZ Crescendo's. I had only heard the AZ and really liked them and thought they would be a good match with my Atmasphere speakers. Well I've had over a dozen speakers in the last 12 year... 
Re Sound Application. Does
There's nothing esoteric with the parts used in these units so don't know why the high prices. My understanding is the current units are close to $20,000 but have no confirmed data just what I've seen posted on different forums. 
Re Sound Application. Does
Ptss yes I'm a dealer, once, a very long time ago for Sound Application. It was the every other month call and upgrades that was the down fall. Yes every company does the upgrade path but they don't do it 5-6 times a year and sometimes for new scr... 
Re Sound Application. Does
I used to use and buy his conditioners and they sounded great. The biggest issue I had was he would call me and tell me he upgraded the screws and it would cost me another $2000 for the upgrade. When I first starting buying his units (his REFERENC... 
Lyra Delos vs EMT TSD 15
Agiaccio if you used the "standard" EMT TSD on the BArdo I'm not surprised you didn't hear the magic. When I had my Bardo with 10.5" Brinkmann arm I used the moddified EMT Ti (titanium with specila titanium screws) cartridge and there was more mag... 
Six Moons charges for reviews?
It's true but what Srajan is asking each manufacturer is to "buy" an ad on his site which is in essence charging for the review. Since this was announced I've stopped going to their site. Most believe this will have little effect on how honest the... 
Parasound JC3+ compared to Pass Labs XP-15
Parasound might have a great team but after listening to their JC3+ I'd buy something else. Have not heard the Pass XP-15 but even so I'd get the Pass.
