| anyone heard of Luxman amp.pls help Thanks for the GREAT link Sogood51! Lots of interesting stuff - Fidelity Research info in English is tough to come by. Many Luxman products which Luxman itself does not have on its own page. | |
| anyone heard of Luxman amp.pls help Sean,The company itself has been around in some form for several decades so I'm not so sure that there are that many completely "original" employees :^) but I imagine that it's much like other smaller Japanese audio companies - the employees/facil... | |

| VTL Tetrode/Triode When I first got my MB-450s, I played around with it. I managed to make it a difficult lean to get around to the back of them so I have since usually switched only once every couple of months - usually when I'm listening to large scale symphonic w... | |
| Tonearm/Cart Matching Assistance - SAEC 407/23 Thanks Tom. FWIW, the arm is supposed to accomodate "cart+headshell" weights of 8-33.5 grams and carts with tracking force of 0-4 grams (though another source suggests 0-2.5g). From what a few Japanese dealers have told me, this arm was oftenused ... | |
| Took the vinyl plunge - need advice Thanks all for your responses. My "in the meantime" may be rather shorter than I thought as I may have just gotten hold of a Benz Micro PP-1 MC phono stage (next 2 days will tell). However, another "problem" has cropped up. My local audio store (i... | |

| Marantz Brianmgrarcom, I apologize for the convoluted nature of my post above - it must have been late [excuses, excuses :^)]. To clarify, I think the PM14 and PM17 are eminently respectable choices. Once you get into megabuckland, everything is subjectiv... | |
| Marantz I have heard the PM-14SA v2 and the PM-17SA v2 several times and the MA9S1s once (I live in Japan). Given their 'street prices', I think they are eminently respectable choices. Living in Japan, if I were going to spend I have to admit I love the b... | |
| Morsiani TT/Tonearm Thanks again Twl. I think the "closed loop" explanation is eminently sensible - makes perfect sense (which begs the question, how does one deal with warped records?). I think I will spend some time googling around and see what I can find. Sorry ab... | |
| Morsiani TT/Tonearm Thanks much Twl. I am trying to learn more about turntable and tonearm design and the engineering philosophy of designers/builders in order to educate myself before I jump off the deep end into vinyl. I discovered the link to Morsiani on the Audio... | |
