| Denon 103r ???? Mingles...I replaced a Grado Sonata with a Benz and can tell you that the Sonata in contrast is tan/brown in color, grainy, harsh, and fuzzy. When you upgrade to a better cartridge, you will hear what I'm talking about...there is always room for i... | |
| Which is the best CD-Player up to $ 10k ? I'm very pleased with my Ayre C5xe...but WARNING... It sounds its best run balanced. There is a definite loss when played single ended. | |
| Dynavector 10x5 ..right you are. And these washers are used to protect the headshell. Happy listening... | |
| Whats the best Cartridge for a bright Pro-ject 9 ? Your question is rife with crazy making. I have discovered that the balancing act of using a bright component with a rolled off contrasting component introduces additional problems to the system.

| CARDAS Fans: Golden vs. Neutral vs. Presence? Personally I hate Cardas products. They just dont work in my system. Thats not to say they wont work in yours, but every time I got rid of a Cardas top of the line cable, the system sounded better. I found the power cords to be really rotten. | |

| VPI - MINI HR-X FOOT UPGRADE FOR SCOUT The mini feet are a worthwhile purchase. The original equipment cones get wobbly when raised even a bit. It therefore is more difficult to level the table with the cones, and not jeopardize its stability. I could be wrong, butI think that may be t... | |
| Ground loop hum from Turntable Cheaters are ok to test for ground loops, but they sound awful. Don't use them as a permanent installation | |
| VPI Aries 3 Has Arrived I think the additional control of speed and the stability of that speed makes the SDS a very worthwhile addition. You will absolutely need it if you plan on the rim drive, but even if you don't, it is a valuable control. On cartridges, the Dyna XV... | |
| Okay......best single box reference CD player Kops..Have you heard the Ayre in balanced mode in a good system? If you had you wouldn't ask that question.Audiofeil... You were booed by many contributors on the Vinyl edition of Audiogon, and here you are again with your snide remarks on the dig... | |
