MY SONIC LAB Cartridges
I know NOTHING about Sonic Lab carts but, based on it’s Japanese lineage, it’s made by guys that are OBSESSIVE and perfectionist.That alone to me, would be enough assurance the lineup is solid. I can’t remember much about anything Peter said about...

fjn04-The alloy cantilever remark is meant as a goof.I believe the sensible knowledge here know it's implementation of whatever used. We spend our hard earned cash on boxes that produce sound. I at least like to have fancy name materials to justif...

The "variant" press?

Why not copy the greats- vinyl LP question
Whart-Thanks for the enlightenment.I suppose blasting "You Shook Me" on the Studer is  the final frontier.  I do hear the Classic with the bass tone  I always complain  about in threads. I must be conditioned for RL bass. 
Why not copy the greats- vinyl LP question
"Classic even made them available as single-sided 45RPM LP's"I'd like to get ahold of just one of these "unicorns"There was a listing here for the complete catalog in a flight case for $$$$!I'd like LZ1 please.I have a HOH Classic. It is very good...
