| CPI super platter vs. Classic aluminum platter Semi....the Superplatter was manufactured with an out of roundness that worked fine with the belt drive, but was totally unacceptable with the rim drive. If you are interested I have the answer to make it work.. shoot me an E-mail if interested. | |

| Helius tonearm users, what have you upgraded to? I had a Helius Orion... the very worst component I ever had (and have had lots). The bearings were in constant need of adjustment (back to England). It was very expensive, and a terrible experience. The new ones may be different, but I won't go ne... | |
| Koetsu Jade v SPU classic v FR 7 fz cartidges I have a Windfield which is quite good. I just came from a Benz LPS...the Ortofon is less colored and still has all the good stuff I heard from the Benz. My Ortofon took lots of time to break in and required careful setup.
