| Purple Heart = Purple Rain? "you would shock to hear how little difference there is between a $160 cartridge and a $2000 cartridge. Between the $2000 cartridge and the $5000 cartridge there is even less."Mijostyn's observationĀ is pretty much how my ears hear top of the food... | |
| Purple Heart = Purple Rain? Kiseki PH is everything positive user reviews mention.I've usedĀ the Kiseki Blue on my VPI Classic, but had QC issues with 2. First one the stylus fell off, the replacement had a right channel issue that conveniently developed just outside the war... | |

| Finally, ultrasonic cleaning for the masses! Obviously the unit will have shortcomings for the cost. If it addresses the actual cleaning, perhaps it may have some value. I could liveĀ with no drying if the price is right.Incorporating a fresh water rinse and vacuum dry seems like it would al... | |
| Good sounding head unit / NAV for car? Whatever head unit you decide on, plug it into a pair of Milbert tube amps/crossovers.https://milbert.com/May as well upgrade the speakers/cable while you're at it. Separate battery setup is worth considering also.If you haven't heard a setup, it'... | |

| Mary The Guitar Center unwritten law of "No Stairway to Heaven" should apply to everyone, anywhere. I burned out on Stairway to Heaven in 1977 while perfecting it on my cheap Les Paul copy.Ā | |
| Best Power cable around/prefer under $300.... If you decide on givingĀ Nordost a try, Blue Heaven is the way to go. The power cord shares the same construction of the Norse series(Heimdall).Obviously, it's scaled back just enough for the price point. Best buy for new Nordost users. | |
