| VPI periphery record ring for VPI Scoutmaster Unfortunately, the question you need to be asking is whether it is worth $600, which is the current retail. What something is worth depends on the end user's perception. It is machined to an exacting circumference, which it must in order to sit pr... | |
| Yet another wacko 'Help Me Decide' thread... From a practical perspective, I would go with the ZYX. There are very inexpensive means to clean a record and chances are with a little effort you can get it close to where the Loricraft will get you, but there is nothing you can do manually that ... | |
| My Rhea's new partner arrives today Have you rolled the tubes in the Rhea? I replaced V1-4 with Telefunken smooth plate 12AX7s and the 5922s with Siemens 6DJ8s. So much smoother and analog sounding. I had one of the Teles go on me a couple of weeks ago, so until I found a suitable r... | |
| Has anyone replaced tubes in Aesthetix Rhea ? Foo: Its been awhile, but to the best of my recollection I replaced V1,2,3,4 with Telefunkens (12ax7) & V5,6 with Siemens (6922). Noise floor dropped considerably and sound was much warmer and more natural. A worthwhile upgrade in my opinion. | |

| Best solid state pre-amp below US $ 10.000,00 ?? You just missed a Halcro DM10 w/ phono that was listed at $9750. Might have been the ticket. | |
| Best solid state pre-amp below US $ 10.000,00 ?? Certainly a used Rowland Coherence II must be on one's short list. You can find them here for | |
| Anyone compare Electraglide UK R/R to Elrod Sig. 3 Yes, Fplanner. Sort of like diversifying your portfolio. (I took a stab in the dark). I agree. I have an Electraglide Ultra Khan which I use from the wall to my PS Audio P500. I also use a Juicebar out of one of the regenerated ports to expand the... | |

| Has anyone replaced tubes in Aesthetix Rhea ? No, Dan. The first thing I swapped out was the 12AX7LPs which are at the first gain stage (V1 & V2 in each channel). The improvement in soundstaging and three dimensional layering was nothing short of spectacular. The swap did not, however, ki... | |
| Has anyone replaced tubes in Aesthetix Rhea ? Rushton: I am pleased to report that I have lowered the noise floor significantly by replacing the stock Sovtek 6922s with Siemens 7308s. I was able to raise the gain setting from 50 to 62 on the Rhea, which is a two-step jump and at this higher s... |
