Cart not parallel after Mint LP alignment? I don't know...I worry about everything. If the cartridge is not square in the shell, or leaning to me that means that the suspension of the cartridge may be "leaning". I wouldn't want my Porsche to lean in any direction at rest.. the suspension h... | |
VPI Help I may help, but certainly VPI would be your "go to" choice. | |
B&W vs Vandersteen? Antonkk - Running both the Vandersteens and the B&WD with Ayre K1xe preamp, V1xe amp, C5xemp Universal disc player, VPI Superscoutmaster with rim drive, 10.5i arm, and Benz Micro Ebony LP. | |
Speaker cables for Vandersteen 3A Signature? After much experimentation with almost all the high priced top of the line cables, I found Anti-Cables to my liking the best...Cardas the worst. I have an all Ayre system with Vandersteen 5A's. | |
Pre and power amp for Vandersteen 3A Signature? Ruffpennis...Just for your own enlightenment...get some anti-cables and just return them....they give you a money back guarantee. | |
MM Cartridge for VPI Scout The VPI arms are medium mass. Benz, Soundsmith, Dyna cartridges work the best. If you are getting mistracking on the inner part of the record, its not anti-skate, but cartridge misalignment, (Mint is great but you have to do it correctly....even t... | |
VPI Classic Platter Thanks.. | |

B&W vs Vandersteen? Antonkk.... I now am enjoying Vandersteen 5A's with all Ayre electronics. The B&W's are airless, lifeless, and burn out tweeers (although easily replaced ....I had to replace them twice and got new tweeters under the warranty. ) | |
B&W vs Vandersteen? I dumped my 802's for Vandersteens. I got them at Audio Connection with John who will advise you soundly. He's a patient, and understands what you want. Give him a try...you can always walk out....I bet you put a check down first. Regarding the Va... | |

MintLP Protractor for the JMW-9T tonearm I forgot where I read it, but I seem to remember reading somewhere (I know this doesn't help) that the Classic arm was just slightly lengthened. This would affect your setup. It very well may be that the arm now conforms to the Rega dimensions as ... | |
New amp Anything with Ayre on it should be on your short list. | |
Connect 3 High Current Amps to a Power Conditioner I tried many power conditioners as well...none of them was an asset. | |
Setting VPI JMW 10.5i When you adjust your tonearm, simply make sure that you either hold it, or that the cueing is in the up position. You then place it on the Mint to see if your adjustment is perfect. I know it feels unstable, but the tonearm is excellent, and you w... |
