| Anyone Still Using Zerodust "Magic eraser is an abrasive so I wouldn't go near a diamond stylus with it." True, but the action of simply dipping isn't enough to damage a diamond surface. | |
| Cabling Recommendations Go as far up as your budget will allow" willy-T- The OP has a 1/4 million dollar retail speaker set. I think the budget isn't a concern. | |
| How much is about the recording "When you finally hear a good direct-to-disk LP, you realize how mediocre most recorded music sounds. But there are almost no direct-to-disk LP’s which contain music you actually want to hear more than once, let alone love." bdp24 spot on as usua... | |
| Cartridge burn-in Just another thing we audiophools think we need to quantify and come up with techno explanations. So you buy a $10K cart for your uber setup, install it and it sounds...just okay, because you have to "wait" for a "breakin?" I don't think so. Yo... | |
| Cabling Recommendations Focal Grande Utopia...You've got a set of serious speakers there. I've never heard a setup with them sound bad. Just try as many of top-of-line models brands as you can. With that level of speaker, a proper dealer will have demo cables for you to... | |

| Primaluna or not Primaluna These "China not for me" posts are the most comical. The post was made by a MIC computer setup, while sitting on a MIC chair. The poster lives in a home with a MINIMUM of 75% MIC products. Wouldn't be surprised if the Margules amp promoted is at... | |

| Starting from scratch in a large room Go in wall. It appears living space/aesthetics are priority. "I’ll be listening from either 13 feet or 25 feet." If you’re that far away, $10-15K floorstanders AND a proper setup. Otherwise, why spend the money? $300 Bestbuy bookshelf speakers ... | |
| Schiit Mani 2 The Schiit Mani is $150 . I used one as a back up unit as my $2500 unit was being repaired. While it's fine for it's price point, it won't make your setup sound like what you read about in these threads about great LP playback. Don't expect gro... | |
| Harmonic distortion inquiry Whatever the answer is, your setup is at a level NOT to be concerned. | |
| Primaluna or not Primaluna "But will it really be enough for my 89dB speakers? At least they claims that." 87-89dB is an average rating for a good chunk of the market. The PL will drive most of them. Other than rock concert levels from the 70's, it should cover "normal" l... |
