| Cartridge/Phono-Pre Break-in? Regarding magnetically attractive Shure scale. Thanks to those that revealed that some Shure scales are magnetically attractive. My advice is if you get one, test it with a magnet, and if the magnet attracts, return the scale. | |
| Single wire or bi-wire for Egglestones Andra II I am using Vandersteen 5A's which are recommended to be used in bi-wire configuration. I tried various setups..jumpers were clearly the worst and true bi-wire the best. If you read what Richard Vandersteen says about bi-wiring, he recommends indiv... | |
| Cartridge/Phono-Pre Break-in? Jmurick..When you get your Sure scale, I found it very accurate if you position it on your turntable platter so that the front (right side when looking at the mirror) 2 feet are hanging off of the edge of the platter, then follow the normal direct... | |
