| What is the correct way to use the Zerostat? I'm using the three point method described above and getting great results. I give a quick brush with a Hunt brush to pick up any loosened dust.Im going to try zapping the brush as described above. | |
| Denon DL300, 304 I'm using an DL103 on a Rega RB300 with excellent results. Adding 3 grams to the head shell locked it in. Sounds spectacular. I have a DL110 in the package that I ordered before trying the headshell weight. I'm now in no rush to install it as ever... | |
| The HI-Q EMI Classical Reissue's I just listened to The Nutcracker and Swan Lake LPs, and here the vinyl is mostly quiet, very acceptable. The recordings are also excellent, both made in Kingsway Hall. I had an original Capitol pressing of the Swan Lake and the Hi-Q is preferable... | |
| The HI-Q EMI Classical Reissue's Listening to Music of Spain - Paris Conservatoire Orchestra with De Burgos. I have cleaned it on the VPI but was a little disappointed with the constant surface noise. I'm going to try another deeper cleaning but if it remains, it might explain wh... | |

| Is the Last Record Preservative system a worthwhile investment? Every record I've bought used with a Last sticker on it sounded very quiet. It's pretty much a guarantee the record has been treated well. I believe it works but I have no direct experience other than that. | |
| Appropriate Power for 1.7i's I had the 1.6 and now MMG pending an upgrade to 1.7. After much research I called Klaus at Odyssey and told him of my system and the planned upgrade of the speakers. He custom designed what is essentially a Stratos in a Khartago case with several ... | |
| stereo for the joy of it - can records be cleaned? A reminder that if the set is in its original state, the sleeves are or were glassine. I might do research on removing glassine debris from vinyl. In my experience I've never seen glassine sleeves damage vinyl, in fact I think it makes a very good... | |
| Snake oil and tweaks that work! I was very excited to find the Cardas Frequency Sweep now available as an iPhone app. Works just like the one on the record, only .99 cents. Worth trying, I use it over Bluetooth to a Bluetooth receiver hooked up to my line level inputs. |
