| Question about TT Power Connections For that level of turntable, use whatever the manufacturer provides. Best to simply enjoy playing a record. All of those models are fine units. IF, you're truly obsessed, be concerned with the platter speed consistency of whatever model and get on... | |
| Fosgate Signature Phono V1 Preamplifier I use a Foz V2. Like everything audio, the tube/cable tweaks are a subjective, YMMV thing.The manual states V3 makes the most sonic change. After trying tubes in the other positions, I too agree it's the only position worth experimenting with. Wh... | |
| Speakers or room room/speaker positioning with good speakers are better than great speakers,less than ideal positioning and bad room setup. | |

| Settings For pro-ject Tubebox DS https://www.project-audio.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/Manual_Tube-Box-DS2.pdfWhat's not clear?I had a P5 years ago. Fun table stock, better with a couple mods.Exact cartridge uses the lowest gain setting- 47K loading. Pretty much the go to set... | |

| Kiseki Purpleheart "Disturbing to hear about those quality issues."big_greg-I typically have good luck with gear. Likely, no real concern in your case.The KB does have subtle refinement compared the the ART9 overall-particularly the mids/highs. It should, being 2X ... | |
| Merry Christmas! Can everyone forget about their cables,tweaks and what's "best" at least for a day, and enjoy their family/friends? Merry Chirstmas.Looking forward to a new year of audio nervosa. | |

| Grading of phono cartridges Part 3 Quite a list here.I'd like to hear what a "98" sounds like. No Soundsmith Strain Gauge or Hyperion? Or did I miss part I or II? | |
| INNER GROOVE DISTORTION I would contact SS. Since Peter makes the cart, and knows a thing or two about VPI, he would be the only person I would listen to. | |

| Deciding on new TT and either a Zephyr MIMC vs an Audio Technica ART9 "No I haven’t made the leap yet. I’m going to listen to dodgealum’s TT and then decide if I want to purchase his or the Upscale Audio one."I see it has the different arm. Not familiar with the ML arm,but i'm guessing a take in the VPI gimbal? I'm ... | |

| The Who (Deluxe) Long time Who fan.I wasn't aware of a recent release, but quick research indicates supporting musicians-Zak Starkey and Pino Palladino on the album,suggest solid performance. Roger and Pete wouldn't allow hack,sub par players to participate.I'm to... |
