| Is vinyl dead ? New material on vinyl may be slow, Reissues from the likes of Speaker's Corner, Classic Records, Sundazed, Rhino are hotter than ever. Witness the proliferation of new phono stages, new turntable designs, and the many high-end phono carts on the m... | |
| Best Find Ever??? A Keith Monks Audio Labs record cleaning machine, all dusty and buried under a bunch of used power tools at a store that I have always suspected of dealing in goods that were acquired by less than honest means.I offered the man behind the counter ... | |
| I want peoples opinions on best ac conditioners Audiotomb,When I had the dedicated lines run to my room, I was fortunate to have an electrician who really knew his stuff. he suggested using whole house surge protection. It is a basic grey box with status lights that takes up 2 breakers in the s... | |
| VPI users, what cartridge??? I am using a Dynavector 20X on my Scout. It mates very nicely with the JMW arms. | |
| I want peoples opinions on best ac conditioners I am with Rsbeck on this one. The less between your gear and your power the better. It's like the best preamp being a straight wire with gain.

| My Worst Nightmare In 1989, my Ex's lawyer forcing me to sell the only thing I had left after they finished picking my carcass: my stereo. It wasn't much but it was musical: Magnepan SMGa, Adcom 535, Counterpoint 7.1, Thorens TD160 | |
| Any Pink Floyd Historians? I would recommend a reading of "Saucerful of Secrets" by Nicholas Schaffner published by Delta in 1991. Much is spent on the band's genesis including their early years while Syd was still active with the band. My personal favorites are: Pre Dark S... | |

| Slappys Sob Story. So long folks Slappy don't sound happy. Slappy feels crappy. Slappy should talk to his pappy.But seriously Slap: I know it looks bleak at the moment, but stick around here anyway. I find myself enjoying your contributions here, your shoot-from-the-hip style may... | |
| Finally Taking The Plunge How about a VPI Scout/JMW 9 arm combo, coupled with the Dynavector 10x4? That will get you in right around the $2000.00 mark and provide a very satisfying entry to vinyl. If you wanted to kick it up a notch and avoid spending $ on a phono stage to... | |
| Review: Joule Electra VZN-220 Rites of Passage Tube amp Well done! Excellent review. Makes me want to come to your place to hear these things for myself. | |

| Paradigm 100 v.3 – B&W 804 dilemma… please help jgaudon:Or should I call you Mr. recording/producing artist? You may very well know how musical equipment "sounds from the get go", but your point was smothered by your unintelligible rant, poor grammar, and very poor choice of some words. If you ... | |
| New Yes Remasters? Ben-I assume these are CD's and not vinyl? Anyone here in the loop about remasted LP's? I would love to see "Close To The Edge" "Tales From Topographic Oceans" and "Going For The One" on 180g...? |
