| Tips for installing Ortofon 2M Bronze on VPI Scout For ME, many years ago, I found that when installing a cartridge, I connect/disconnect the cartridge from those delicate wires when the cartridge is physically removed from the arm. Since then, I have not broken those delicate wires. | |
| New VPI 3D Arm Biwynne...and then I heard that although the Atlas is fabulous, the Etna has a bit better midrange.... I would guess, that it is impossible to audition these cartridges, so I'll just have to guess. Still ruminating. | |
| Graham Elite Bob Graham....I'm surprised at you for making that uncalled for belittling comment regarding the "fanciful idea" of 3D printing. I personally don't care if it is stuffed with doggie doe....if it works it works. | |
| Interesting bilind testing of Stradivarius Violin ..a Strad with what strings...with what bow....with what player....with what rosin...in what hall....there is no way to tell!!! | |
| Zyx Universe. O.24 mv vs .48 mv with low eff spkrs The cartridge will be riding low - too close to the record if indeed the suspension were collapsed.

| Does the VPI Aries1 best the VPI Classic1? The Classic aluminum platter is a step up | |

| Possible Upgrade Advice The Valhalla wiring would be a step backwards....sure it sounds more extended in the highs (bright??) but is not nearly as musical as the Discovery. | |
| best match power amp for Acoustic Research AR 3 AR's have excellent low end response, however their highs are limited. I suggest Janzen electrostatic tweeter.....NOW YOU"RE TALKIN". This very combination was used by Joe Grado as his state of the art system for evaluating his cartridges, etc. Re... | |
| Wet Cleaning the Stylus My car keeps track of the oil...I don't know if its mileage, time, or if it really analyzes the oil...anyway, a large indicator lights up that says...change oil. It came on about a year after I got the car at my mileage of a bit less then 10,000. | |
| Wet Cleaning the Stylus Mr. Clean Magic Eraser....nothing better. | |
| AudioQuest SKY revisit Luna....Sky is MY favorites.....interesting that the Signature cable is not nearly as good. | |
| RCA to XLR adapter vs buy a balanced cable No such thing as a good adapter...get the real deal | |
| New VPI 3D Arm Okonrad....I'm using a Benz LPS, but am starting to itch for an Atlas. Any thoughts?? |
