What Cartridge for Clearaudio Performance? It's funny because when I recently purchased a Clearaudio Performance SEP from Needle Doctor I asked them to suggest a cartridge with these exact same traits. They suggested the Lyra Delos, so after some thinking about it and of course reading rev... | |

Rega Elicit Break-In Forgive me for digging up this old thread but I just picked up an Elicit and found what has been discussed here very helpful. You see, after I set up mine and gave it its first listen I was pretty disappointed with how it sounded. I would best des... | |
Monster Home Theater Power Center? Thanks for the info. I am wondering about the power conditioning abilities of the Monster systems. I guess I forgot to emphasize this point in my original post. I've been hearing good things about Richard Gray stuff so if it is well worth paying m... |
