| A question for Graham owners In addition to this with respect to proper cartridge alignment, you must get yourself the proper tool. The Mint LP. I have a Phantom II which has replaced an SME V on a Sota Cosmos IV. I never looked back....... | |
| PC vs MAC laptop as music server Thank You all with those informative responses.Suppose i go with a mac mini as Robert and others have suggested, and use my LCD TV as a monitor with wireless keyboard/mouse. From my sitting location, the TV would be 10 feet away and the main audio... | |
| Audio Research Tube AMP Reliability Have owned several ARC units too numerous to list here. What i have now is REF2 MKI, REF Phono, Classic 120 mono's all modified by GNSC and all with vintage NOS tubes. Not once an ARC unit blew up on me and i have always done my own tube replaceme... | |
| Phono cable for Graham Phantom I am in the Stealth Hyperphono clan with a Graham Phantom. However, i have used a Silver Audio Breeze in the past with great results. | |
| Looking for a good Transport. Help. Thank You all for your recommendations. I think that i will "rip" the cd's that i have onto my Itunes library using AIFF format and do away with another big & bulky piece of equipment that i would not have space in my rack for. Some people in ... | |
| Service or Replace ARC D90 Amp Agreed with Liz and Cyclonicman. I have had several ARC gear modded by Steve Huntley at GNSC over the years to stunning sonic results. (Classic 120 mono's LS16MKI, PH3SE, REF2 MKI, REF Phono). His mods go much deeper that what ARC can ever provide... | |

| Download and "ripping" questions with a Mac. Thank You Reubent and drumsgreg.For the CD's that have already been ripped in ACC 128kbps, can i convert those into AIFF format within Itunes or do i have to rip those again with the new settings in my "preference"? | |

| Audio Research REF-110 vs. HD-220 Hi Lwerner. If you do replace your CL120's with the Ref 110 let me know your impressions. I have a pair of CL 120's as well although mine were upgraded by GNSC approx. 2 years ago. I was looking at a couple for sale here on the Gon but still a lit... | |
| Sota Star Nova V Help....... I have owned Sota's for many years. Star, Nove and now Cosmos. In your case, you will have to remove the platter to get to your belt. This is easy with the Nova. Set the TT on the edge of 2 chairs so you have easy access to the bottom of the TT. D... | |
| Mint Tractor Hi All, i placed an order with Yip as well. I figured might as well jump in both feet in like you guys. However, Yip returns an email asking for spindle diameter. No problem there as i have a micrometer to measure. He also asks to look at the tone... |
