Frogman & others: An example of how Bruce deals with his customers: Years ago, I called him on a Sat. I was having issues with air output. He (never) left me feeling my issue was not important. We talked for at least 30 minutes. I was the one ...

Being anal has it's rewards.. at least in audio...All my talk about "level", and other things....When one gets to a certain level in audio, this becomes important! Somehow, all of this kind of this talk is somewhat "otherworldly" until, one get's ...

Ct0517: "None!" How many other tonearm owners are advocating their virtues?!!!OK, Here's my ultimate lp recommendation! There are very few times that all of the stars align. This/these are those times.The was a label: Audioquest, from years ago......

To all: My 25 + years of experience in audio, all comes down to this: common sense, logic, & listening. Regarding the ET arm(1) Logic: It's design allows the user/listener to track an lp as the original 'cutter head' does. (This is important)!...

Ct0517,We should note the findings of the many long time users here on this thread that take the ET to a much greater listener experience than even Bruce eluded to in his own manual. Those who have followed this thread closely will know exactly wh...

Aguser, You will really do yourself a favor by taking to heart, Frogman & Ct0517's advice! My 'chiming in' on "leveling" is from 25+ years of experience with this arm. It does not hurt to level everything then "re-level". No kidding. Purchase ...

The difference I noticed comparing compressors is not night & day. It is however noticeable to me and I think a seasoned listener would notice. (This is a testament to how effective my Motorguard filter is) A lot of baby steps... in the end re...

Richardkrebs: I finally introduced the Jun-Air 6-25 into my system. I had it modified to allow the use of an additional air tank. I'm still using my tried and true Motorguard M-30 filter. The only thing that has changed was taking my Timeter PCS 4... 
Review: Audio Desk Systems Vinyl Cleaner Tweak
Update: I failed to mention the 'filter' is also white. I've cleaned maybe 150 lps by now. As I stated earlier, the WHITE barrels and now the WHITE filter doesn't lie! It's very telling how, after my initial steam cleaning of lps and then putting ...
