| Wavestream Kinectics Deluxe Phono I don't have one.Looks to be a little overkill but we're audiophools, so the more switches and knobs, the better! I suppose if I had a VERY nice setup with an extensive collection with unique LP's this is it. How about that air capacitor and the c... | |
| Question on VTF (What should i adjust it to?) Do yourself a favor...As long as it's within the specs, enjoy your setup.If you want something else to obsess about here's somethinghttps://www.analogplanet.com/content/zenith-angle-correction-final-set-frontierAnother adjustment that gets yes and... | |
| Macintosh MR71 owners-anyone replace their stereo bulb? Thanks for the response.I was afraid removing the glass was gonna come up. I've read about the disintegrating lettering. Guess I'll put that project on ice for now. Made the mistake of not having all the bulbs replaced when it was serviced last ye... | |
| Classical Vinyl Series Great setup.How in the heck did Horace Silver lift that intro to Steely Dan's "Ricky don't loose that number" off the 1974 Pretzel Logic Album? I like my 1965 copy. It was an usual find-nearly perfect in a box very cheap, uninteresting LP's. It m... | |
| Better Records White Hot Stampers: Now the Story Can Be Told! Finding a "White Hot Stamper" isn't rocket science.You just need to buy 20 or so copies of Aja or whatever and listen.That's what stamper guy and his crew do-find every AA1006 and cross your fingers.https://www.discogs.com/Steely-Dan-Aja/release/... | |

| Speakers behind wall of TVs?? What the ...? "I like to sometimes listen to tunes while I'm watching 10 games"Sports book in the basement-that's a serious fan.How anyone can be serious about "listening to tunes" while doing that is puzzling. Serious listening? That's laughable. To each his o... | |
| Cartridge for VPI TT with JMW 9 tonearm I see that in all my babble I failed to include a comment directly to your lineup choices.The OC9 series is quite good at their price point. I've used the OC9 III. Be aware AT's can have a VERY active top end. The newer series appears to give mor... | |
| Cartridge for VPI TT with JMW 9 tonearm A popular $1K cart for the VPI is the Audio Technica ART9. You can find the 1st generation for under $1Khttps://www.lpgear.com/product/ATART9.htmlThere are plenty of threads on the ART 9.Your phono stage is up to the task, but the ART9 or equivale... | |
| Pro-Ject Xtension Evo 10 - Record Weight ? That's an impressive table...It plays Bizet without the cartridge even near the LP! Maybe a new accessory weight Pro-Ject is offering? It's a nice table, I've heard it a few times. A shiny weight isn't going to make it "better".Looks like everyone... | |
| Pro-Ject Xtension Evo 10 - Record Weight ? Your question suggests you're linking a picture of yours to compare? | |

| Any other Agon Love for UFO? Michael Schenker is one of the post Zeppelin-metal gods, before EVH and the 80's shred thing.After "Obsession" and MS leaving UFO, the changing rock scene was catching my attention.My Lights Out LP from 1977 STILL gets played now and then. Any te... | |

| Wow, $10k+ cables The OP is on to something here....I would use $9,999.99 cables on my "Statement" grade boxes.More bang for your buck than the $10K offerings. |
