| Cartridge impedance loading question Pretty easy to switch for SOME of us. I have to open the unit and remove and replace resistors... Don't tell me I only have to do it once when setting up the cartridge...I've already done it once, but wonder if a different value might be better...... | |

| Suggestions for arm to replace VPI 12.7 The 3D arm is better (to my ears) than is the Classic wand. You will immediately hear an ease that is so beguiling. I personally like that arm to all others...when I switched from a 10.5i to the 3D, I had to buy the whole arm..I was told you can't... | |

| Vandersteen 3 w/ARC d240 MKII Before you give up on the Vandersteens, call Richard at the factory. He's very approachable, and will want to make it right for you. You've got little to loose, but a phone call. | |
| Fozgometer Thanks.....changed the battery..no help, no short on the meter. It is a bad brand new Ortofon cartridge. Back it goes. | |
