| Just Bought a VPI Scout As I said on the AA board, I have a ZU/dl103 mc ctg which I have been told isn't a high compliance ctg for my Scout and it works and sounds wonderful. You will be fine with your cartridges. Just set up carefully and enjoy.Bob | |
| Mcintosh MC500 or Accuphase P800 You will most likely get more synergy by using a Mac amp with the c46 preamp.Bob | |
| Vinyl composition effect on noise floor I have a Dark Side Of The Moon from the Harvest label on white vinyl. It is the worst sounding record I own. Nuff said. | |
| FM tuners - Are they OBSOLETE ? I had a Sony hdr-f1hd tuner in addition to my Magnum Dynalab FT101a. Guess what, I kept the Magnum Dynalab and sold the Sony. How anyone can say that the Sony sounds great must have hearing deficiencies. Most of the stations I want to listen to in... | |

| finding the right speaker? I had 2ce's for many years, and I moved on to Odyssey Kismet reference speakers at 3200.00 a pair. Best investment I ever made. You get the bass of the vandersteens, but a little more detailed treble that is non-fatigueing. |
