| Andy Kim - Needle Clinic I've yet to see any mention of using Andy's own NC-1? He had a batch made and was offering them couple years ago? I passed when he offered one when I got the news a cart wasn't repairable. Limited Production: The Needle Clinic NC-1 is limited to... | |

| Is it worth to get 2 m Nodorst vs 1m The reasons for yes or no should be a good read. I have read "facts" on both short/long. Nordost user here. | |
| The ”sweetspot” in the Nordost line of cables "Would Shunyata Alpha be a better match than the Nordost Leif cables?" Your ears should be the only one to tell you that, certainly not anyone here. Only the power cable incorporates construction principles of the upper levels. That said, it is ... | |

| GaN guitar amps? Guitar amps and audio amps shouldn't even be in the same conversation. No need to reinvent the wheel. "Most guitar players I’ve played with are incessantly fiddling with their pedals to get the sound they’re looking for on a particular song," ... | |
| looking for amp repair los angeles area I do my best to thoroughly read/understand before responding, therefore, I won’t mention George Meyer. I’ve had positive experiences the 2 times i’ve used them in the past 7 years. Pricey, but what isn’t in LA? | |

| New TT vs Cartridge/isolation upgrade Whatever you do, it's going thru whatever phonostage used. If it's the internal of an integrated amp, time to max the budget for a proper standalone unit to maximize the existing setup. You can then decide on a cart. Now your long game is in moti... | |
