| Phone Preamp help for VPI Scout w Grado Sonota MM Mechans...be careful what you guarantee. In MY system, I tried many cables, but not were worse than Cardas.....I tried their whole line | |
| What's up with Ridge Street Cables If they are silver, and are heavy, perhaps you could sell it as bulk silver instead of cables. To have unused equipment just hanging around doesn't make sense to ME. | |
| ...just wondering Actusreus....I'm hesitant about telling you the price Harry told me....E-mail him and let HIM tell you. I thought it very reasonable, ...also reasonable is the price of the new arm. Every time I've upgraded with Harry's suggestion, I've been pleas... | |
| ...just wondering oh..Harry also tells me that the new arm is jaw dropping better than anything made....no resonances at all... I will post when I get the new arm and provide my thoughts. | |
| ...just wondering Raul....Harry tells me that the ceramic platter is really the current aluminum platter, with a bonded shell of ceramic material. I will have both to compare, and will post my findings (just my taste...others might disagree) | |

| Power conditioning / surge protection I've tried many power conditioners and have not been successful in finding one that doesn't do harm in some way. Sure they change the sound, but I personally could live without them | |
| Etymotic ER4P Reliability mine too are years old with nothing but dependable, excellent sound | |
| Sneaky new internet tax pushing through fast If there is anyone who feels that they aren't paying enough taxes, they can always donate whatever they feel is fair to the government. As long as I hear about the waste and corruption that runs rampant in our government, I will pay what I am forc... | |
