noise problem with cable Why in the world would you have a balanced to Single ended adapter. You loose LOTS from this configuration | |
How do YOU set VTF on your Rega arm?? I don't have a 300 now to check, but I can't believe that on max, the spring is "Locked" down. If it were, it couldn't function as a spring. Perhaps the resonant frequency is changed and if it is, it would change for the higher which is not good a... | |
Maple or Granite I use shelves of Ultam. Its very expensive, but the best I have heard. | |
Cartridges & Sensitivity to VTF I have a Benz Ebony and a VPI Nordost arm. I have determined that there is not much difference at all settings except that there is more air - bloom around the instruments at the best setting. Ive read that you adjust by listening to the bass, but... | |
How do YOU set VTF on your Rega arm?? I agree that the Expressimo counterweight does make a huge difference. If you want an even bigger difference, get the P25 (or any Rega) off of those rubber feet. You can put Cardas blocks, etc. under the table, letting the blocks support the outer... | |

Cartridge recommendations VPI Scoutmaster I went from a Grado Sonata to a Benz Ebony... WOW - what a difference. Its as though the Grado was broken | |
Maple or Granite Try the Gingko platform - you will be pleasantly surprised | |
The Worst Speaker you have ever heard. Guys...this is an AUDIO forum | |
The Worst Speaker you have ever heard. Funny you mentioned Watt/Puppies. I thought they were so unnaturally bright they sounded as though my dentist was drilling in my ears. Another bad and overrated speaker is the VanSchweikert. I heard many permutations of them and they all sounded B... | |
Q: Playing empty/last groove ? I'd say that your cartridge is 4 hours older - no damage |
