| PASS LABS X150.8 AMP to McIntosh MC462? I wouldn't make the move if it were me. You even say you love the Pass... Deal with the heat if you must. You must have a VERY small listening space.. Wait for the winter to listen? | |
| System synergies: Chaotic or predictable? That's why all my electronics are from the same manufacturer. | |
| Help? Problem With Holding The Groove On A Hot Pressing remember to check the tracking force with the weighing platform at record height. | |
| Light weight speaker cables AntiCables | |

| Stylus not tracking and sounds terrible I tried my VPI on a Gingko platform....knew the manufacturers well...nice guys....but the platform ruined the sound of the VPI. Let Soundsmith take a look at your cartridge. | |

| H/k citation 16 In its day it was the best out there. I suspect it still is better than lots of them. I always have had the best luck with the same brand ...they were designed around each other. (I now have all Ayre) | |
| Any other lone audiophiles here? Art....if you live in Arizona, you can stop by for a listen. | |
| Directional cables - what does that really mean? What was told to me is that the metal (copper, silver) is drawn in one direction that is accounted for. |
