| Nordost repair " Just hope they don’t break. Lol" audphile1- I'm not a DIY guy, but will attempt to repair things if it appears not too involved. Since Nordost uses solid core wire, I would think it would be straight forward, as long as you use a proper strip... | |
| Nordost repair "Interesting. And you reached out to them using their web form, correct?" Yes, I reached out thru their "contact us" page. I'll just chalk it to "stuff happens." I guess if I look at the big picture-purchased used private, 1/4 of list, almost 10... | |
| Nordost repair Well after 2 unanswered emails, I give Nordost a big FAIL in the customer response column. Ordered some Neutrik NF2C-B2’s which were the Nordost OEM for this 1st run II version. I bought 2 pair for $54.96 including shipping, which probably saved ... | |

| New TT : Balanced vs. Unbalanced Connection? gemoody- my comment was stepping up from your existing phono amp. If you're playing the long game-$2K+ will get something that will take advantage of future table/cart changes. | |
| New TT : Balanced vs. Unbalanced Connection? Parasound Z-Phono : Phono Preamp Step up your game in the phono amp. More important that the cable connection concern. | |
| Seeking Legit Cartridge Expert? "contemplating replacing my tonearm, here we go , Hifi rabbit hole approaching again.." Are you thinking of the drop in VPI gimbal or a REAL nice arm? You can at least transfer a pricey arm to the future REAL nice $ table. You'll probably have to... | |
| Seeking Legit Cartridge Expert? "I keep hearing mixed opinions about the ART9XA vs the ART9XI ." No real "bad choice." If you listen carefully, you might hear the differences. Audio-Technica AT-ART9 vs AT-ART9XA vs AT-ART9XI Moving Coil Cartridge (youtube.com) Too bad this w... | |
