| Why so many linn lp12s for sale the LP-12 is a very good turntable, but it has to be set up correctly....and it goes out of setup easily. There is a manual by Linn that goes into the finest points of setup (I used to have one, but its gone now).... | |
| Lyra Kleos: tracking force/VTA/azimuth questions Bif....I personally believe if you track it a bit heavier, stylus wear would be the same....anyway....I like the sound of no anti skate. | |
| Lyra Kleos: tracking force/VTA/azimuth questions Forget anti-skate....there's no right way to adjust for it....it will sound better without it....anti-skate acts to constrict the stylus...acts as damping that you don't need. | |
| Sennheiser 650 Headphone Cable Upgrade I have Sen 650's and have Cardas replacement cables. The difference is quite striking ...everything gets better. I think its so odd, since Cardas cables are the very worst on my system using interconnects, speaker cables, and power cords. | |
| Why nobody uses McIntosh with Vandersteen? I noticed no one talked of pairing Vandersteen and Ayre. I personally like that combination. | |

| XLR or RCA? There is a minor benefit in using XLR even though the component is not internally balanced....the big benefit is when one does it right. | |
| vibrapods -- which component? In case anyone is wondering....Bearpaws (available on the internet) are very large, very heavy, excellently made brass (I think) cones that screw into VPI's as a direct replacement to those mini feet. The upgraded performance is very easy to hear.... | |
| Passive Preamp Recommendations? ..whatever the reasons, I tried them a few times, and they were all way less good than my active preamp. | |
| MM Cartridge For VPI Scout, Help Please I would get in touch with VPI ...tell them what how your Denon isn't performing to your satisfaction....they are very customer oriented/helpful. | |
| Black Discus - Free Sample Alert ...and here is my take.... I tried putting the discs all over the system. When I placed one on the power cord input of the CD player, it made an appreciable difference. (Ayre C5xemp). There was more 3 dimensional presentation...an elimination of t... |
