Are there any other EAR 834P modders lately?
OK, I switched to the Bugle Boy in V2. Less open, only a hint of the bass the Mullard had, (soft sounding). Put the Mullard back in. I'm working too hard, party people. Time to sign off and enjoy.

This thread got me wondering about my tube compliment. In the context of my system, these are the changes I made today while listening to Elvis Presley "Live From Memphis" Speakers Corner,. The tube orientation I previously mentioned had a little ... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Hi Raul, I'm a new poster on this thread and new to NOS MM carts. I just aquired an Acutex 420STR after hearing it is a synergistic match for the ET tonearm. My intitial inspection of it made me ask the following question... The detachable stylus ...

As Frogman stated earlier, and I'm paraphrasing, the tube compliment you find most pleasing will be according to your own tastes, preferences and components/set-up. I've tried a few,( no where near most of you) and the Sylvania black plate, steel ...

I'm happy to go along with what others have. I also have an original WB Donald Fagan & a Japanees copy also. Of course I have an original "There Goes Rymin' Simon". I'm sure I could help with a larger list guys. Actually, HP put "Negotions and...

I am somewhat concerned that just two of the many posters are interested in a (reference) lp in which to judge.On-line judging isn't optimal, neither is, up to date reporting of similar components in differing systems on the same tonearm...?What i...

Frogman: A LP we could all agree on introduces a variety of unforseen issues. I understand that some of you are trained musicians with differing perspectives than some of us. Your mention of "Nightfly" is interesting. Yes, I believe it was one of ...

Frogman: As you can see, I still haven't read through all of the postings since I left a while back. However, It's a very positive thing for me to put myself 'out-there' in this way and have someone with your experience with these issues comfirm m...

Duanegoosen: Thanks, I think. I don't mind being called out. My intent is reverant however.Believe it or not. 
New 'Vinyl Flat' flattener?
Although I've noticed from my own, non-scientific tests that the Vinyl Flat works, it works like a charm. I appreciate all of you who go to the extremes in testing, but IMO, no need. I've had experiences in which, say, Janis Ian "Between the Lines...

Frogman. Is your "Hah"! a good thing or not so good thing.I still think that my new motor enclosure design will help.I also realize that this fix may be somewhat a 'bandaid fix' towards other potential issues. In any case, I'm enjoying the problem...
