| What cartridge on your VPI prime? I'm using the Ortofon Winfield...with smiles. | |
| Speakers that are very accurate sounding but don't produce an emotional connection. Inna et al.... its not the tools, but the talent. I just saw Rachel Barton Pine play various levels of instrument....Strads, Guanari's , no names...and wonderful music came from them all. | |
| Tonearm recommendation I love my VPI 3D arm....easy to install..has every adjustment for your cartridge, is non resonant...what more could you ask | |
| Should I consider a cartridge upgrade? Arsh...I have a 3D arm on my Superscoutmaster....its easily done. Call VPI and arrange it.....a dramatic improvement | |
| VPI or Pro-ject Sure...give consideration to all turntables, but buy the Prime...it delivers way above its price point. | |
| So how many people are using subwoofers Subs are good...the more the merrier. They take the power required for lows away from your amp and regular speaker so that they operate better, cleaner, etc. | |
| Advice needed: biwire speaker cables used as single wire speaker cable? No problem. Connect the 2 positive cables with the positive side of your amp, and the 2 neg. cables to the negative side of your amp. This is called Shotgunning. | |

| A new player in the quality Mono cartridge game I just don't see the need for a mono cartridge...I play mono records fine with no annoying noise. The sound comes out from between the 2 speakers and I can enjoy the music fine. | |
| Should I consider a cartridge upgrade? Arsh...whoever told you bad things about the 3D arm just doesn't know what they're talking about. All that I told you...3D arm, classic platter, etc. will take your turntable to the very height of performance. If you add the rim drive, it will ne... | |
| Should I consider a cartridge upgrade? ..sure - a better cartridge, a 3D arm, and a Classic platter. ...maybe rim drive if you're really doing it.... nothing much better. | |
| Suspensions on turntable...really effective? Many years ago, I had a Linn LP which was so critical I could tell how many people were in the room by what the turntable sounded like. I have a Superscoutmaster Rim Drive now located on the lowest floor of the house with no basement....bedrock. ... |
