Will Origin Live Conqueror tonearm fit my Rega RP10's skeletal plinth?
lgo-jerry Has OL been able to offer insight on your project? I would think they could at least offer measurements/dimension of minimum area required to make it happen? By looking at pics of the tonearm, it looks like clearance(height of plinth)... 
Can anyone explain what a power tube does inside an amplifier, eg kt88.

Will Origin Live Conqueror tonearm fit my Rega RP10's skeletal plinth?
"I've bought much better phonostage, amplifier, cables, cartridge...All while using the RP10 with its stock RB-2000 tonearm. I can't say whether there would be further improvement by using a "better" tonearm, but it would seem to be the logical ne... 
Will Origin Live Conqueror tonearm fit my Rega RP10's skeletal plinth?
The RP10 as is, certainly is a good table. The current P10 iteration based on reviews takes it up a notch. Unless you’re planning a future table upgrade, it seems like a waste to do such modifications and possibly loss resale value -even if you o... 
WHY DO PEOPLE FEEL THE NEED TO COMMENT ON CABLES AND EQUIPMENT THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD?
Wow! The thread title hurt my ears. I mixed things up this morning by using Ceylon cinnamon, instead of the common supermarket Cassia variety in my oatmeal. Wild blueberries, Medjool dates, raisins and walnuts-delicious! I pretend it’s an omele... 
High Frequency Hearing Loss
Good luck on your hearing loss management. My deficit is 7Khz along with ever present tinnitus Listening to my preferred format-LP’s thru tubes helps take the mind off my own situation. The cheese suggestions will only add unnecessary calories ... 
What is the quality and performance level of Fluance turntables??
Put in your best offer on this Rega Planar 6 demo as new weeks use w/war... For Sale | Audiogon As mentioned, you get what you pay for. Other than novelty, sub $1000 entry tables are a waste of money, IMO. I’d up my digital setup before playing... 
Maximum Upgrade Potential
By way of owning a decent amp(your case the PL Dialogue) for an extended period of time suggests the PL is competent at what a tube amp is supposed to do. Tube amps aren’t’ doing anything different in those 20 years. It’s not an absolute must, bu... 
Speaker cable lifters.
' I really would like to call up a professional to come to look at my room and see what I really need for wall and ceiling diffusers / dampers' A mic/room EQ program will show what going on. Just a guess, but diffusion is the issue to manage? Co...

Speaker cable lifters.
The OP has a high level system in what looks to be a challenging space. Are room acoustics- damping/diffusion fully addressed? The ceiling/speaker arraignment has to be affecting overall SQ? Leaning forward and eye squinting will probably have t...

Rockford Fosgate Signature Phono Pre needs repair
"Fosgate is defunct?  What about all those Fozgometers" Still on the MS site,so perhaps the Fozgometer brand name is being kept alive?      
Rockford Fosgate Signature Phono Pre needs repair
MS contracted a company somewhere on the east coast. I had my V.2 repaired for the right channel. It was linked to the subpar assembly/build QC.  Mine is 10 years old. Still playing, but now has a wonky right toggle switch(gain) I demoed the Fo... 
Watermelon test for audiophiles!
Tap test is flawed. As indicated by the diagram, I go weight(density) and the "field spot" No field spot suggests picked too early. Even then, mother nature still makes a dud now and then. Eat better tasting watermelon, and you can hear the SQ...
