| Technics magnesium tonearm 1200G vs Jelco 850 I have the SL 1200G with the magnesium arm. Another member uses an Origin Live arm on his Technics SL1200G and said it takes the table up a few notches. I have no experience with the Jelco. | |

| PS audio new 25K dac and the psychological effect of owning a company's best. Personally, I would never spend 25K on any DAC. Today’s 25K DAC will be worth less than 50% in just a couple of years. | |
| Close, but no cigar ... Get a Mac, you won't ever want for anything else. Too much bad information here regarding McIntosh. | |

| Schiit Lokius 6 band equalizer - in use observations @ghosthouse,Great review. If you wouldn’t mind, can you list the 6 adjustable frequency’s on the Lokius? I ask because I tried the Loki but I needed a bass boost around 60hz and the Loki was set at 20hz. I ended up buying the Bellari which has t... |
