| Well Tempered V's VPI Super Scout Master Sign Great choice...if you can get the 3D arm on it do so. The metal arm is fine, but the 3D is spectacular. | |

| Pre-amp causing loud hiss from speakers There is a benefit from getting all one's components from the same manufacturer....they play together well. | |
| Why do MM cartridges amplify more surface noise?? The Foz is an important MUST for VPI owners, but not for Rega owners. I had a device for my Rega arm that permitted me to raise/lower the back end. I forgot where I got it, but I'm sure you can find it. I don't remember it being expensive, but it ... | |
| VPI, Graham, Koetsu advice please There's acrylic and there's acrylic. The way you describe the unsatisfactory sound was the exact way mine was sounding. When I changed to the Classic platter, it was like heaven opened up. ...the new platter is not bright...just open and free. | |
| 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.

| VPI, Graham, Koetsu advice please The cure for your problem is an upgraded platter. Call VPI and get the new one (you'll probably need a bearing as well) | |
| Why do MM cartridges amplify more surface noise?? ...sounds like a resonance peak to me. I've heard that Ortofon sound fine....there are better, but you can easily live with the Ortofon. I have a Winfield....took forever to break in and is very critical about setup. Works beautifully now....work ... | |
| Phono stage w/automatic Load-Impedanance. My cartridge sounds best at 1000 ohms....tried 4 or 5 different settings... | |
| My stereo isn't doing it for me. Need advice Have you listened to your equipment through earphones? | |
| Audioquest Volcano vs Mont Blanc Yes...one time my favorite cables were Mont Blanc and Sky....until I heard the top of the line Wireworld stuff. To these ears they are perfect (until next year?) | |
| Vandersteen Seven Review No one is as good a John @ Audio Connections. I bought my 5A's there...now live in Arizona. I was going to revise my 5A's to carbons, but after hearing them (carbons)...I couldn't justify the money. I really found the Carbons so close to the 5A's.... |
