| Prima Luna and Focal Aria 926 Years ago I used the a PL Prologue 2 (Evo 100 predecessor)with 89db speakers. Other than concert level volumes it was fine. Focal spec is 91-92. Since manufacturer specs always are higher than real world, that means my speakers were likely 87 ... | |
| hana ML vs Rega Ania pro on Rega P8 Using non Rega carts defeats the Rega philosophy. Using shims for a non Rega cart is hit or miss. Mount the cart and determine if you like the sound in its non optimized state. It may actually be pleasing to you since VTA is ultimately subjective... | |
| VPI Fatboys versus others in its' tonearm weight class. skyscraper, Agon is a great place to gain knowledge. Unfortunately, it does nothing to temper audio nervosa and wallet atrophy. Your upgrade will more than a "settling" experience. | |

| How to choose an upgraded tonearm. "I’m wondering if that arm you suggest will fit on the VPI Classic 2’s tonearm platform." skyscraper- I would confirm with the VPI staff what your options are outside of the gimbal. Contact the audimods to see if they do have customers with suc... | |
