| VPI antiskate nylon string and collar As you rotate the a/s device on the junction box, it can provide the greatest a/s force to be set variably... As the cartridge moves across the record, skating force changes...some say the greatest force is at the end of the record (the loudest us... | |
| Anyone Using Crystals? I tried some quartz crystals in various parts of my stereo....found they did nothing, until I put them in my electrical panel...then I heard a very real improvement. | |
| VPI antiskate nylon string and collar no. The collar is affixed as close as you can on fhe arm, and behind the spike (bearing). The arm itself should be adjusted a precisely as you can. Personally, I found that no antiskate at all is my preference, so took the ring/fishing line off... | |

| Mint lp best tractor for VPI Classic The setup with a Mint is more accurate. Do you have a 10.5 inch arm? | |
| Considering switching from Audio Research to PrimaLuna, troube with VS115 amp I know about the mystique of tube equipment, but if you get a well made great sounding solid state it will give you pleasure with no heartache. I use Ayre....if you can find a used piece you made a great investment. They never go bad. | |
| Audiophiles are not alone On another point.....break in... When we get a new something, it sometimes takes months for it to sound its best. The same is true for a violin. I have one that looks a lot like a Guarneri, though with lots of inspection from New York luthier... | |
