| Unipivot tone arms On paper, unipivot is inferior. Properly setup and handled, you're not going to "hear" its deficits comparing it with other implementations. S.O.T.A. tables typically are NOT unipivot. Longtime VPI user. | |
| Pure Fidelity / Rega NOT a bad space to be in. Quite familiar with P10. Feel safe in saying anyone considering Rega at the highest level is getting their money's worth. PF appears to get positive reviews. If it were me, I would be looking at used stuff as well. I'v... | |
| Organ music, your system, and an old German A cup of dark roast and an early 50’s-60’s Living Presence Marel Dupree is a great way to start a day. Thankfully, the genre is in low demand/cheap and plentiful in my neck of the woods. I have a few, along with E Power Biggs on Columbia. The gre... | |
| Help me build up a jazz album collection. Can you suggest a must have album? Percussion- If you want to be a purist weirdo like me, get this. Or, just get a reissue and enjoy some "straight ahead" Jazz Art Blakey And The Jazz Messengers – Art Blakey And The Jazz Messengers – Vinyl (LP, Album, Mono), 1958 [r757945] | D... | |

| Comments on Fanfare FM-2G - FM Antenna 22 year old thread. Shouldn't the tuners signal strength meter tell you where it likes the antenna? The higher the better for one thing. | |
| Would it make sense and be safe to put power conditioner in front of PS Audio regenerator? "I wonder if audiophile grade outlet would help." Listening to your setup from 11:00PM to 4:00 AM while the grid is less strained will probably yield better results than buying more audiophool accessories. | |
| Would it make sense and be safe to put power conditioner in front of PS Audio regenerator? "I could also experiment more with power cords from the wall but this Purist works well," Unnecessary audionervosa. I use a PPP. It's 18 years old. PS Audio refreshed it in 2020, and good for another 10 years. They no longer support it. The ou... | |
| Hipster/Chic "Vinyl" playing machine $6450?!!! WOW! I hope the company did their target market research... Maybe for the non audio type who get stuff like this: A duct-taped banana sells for $6.2 million at an art auction : NPR | |
| Can you do anything to make power tubes last longer ? Cryogenic treatment-surprised it hasn't been mentioned earlier. Cryogenically Treated Tubes, the most cost-effective tweak for your audio system Of course, only for those who believe. | |
| Becoming Led Zeppelin "Never noticed over the smell of weed in the auditorium." noromance- Yeah, I do remember there was a concert vibe for TSRTS way back when. We got primed in the parking lot, along with MANY. "My only complaint was it wasn’t LOUD enough." pehar... | |
| Turntable Upgrade " no true wrong answers here. " Agreed. If anything, the OP might learn of a particular choices' strength/weakness and make the choice on what brand/model will fit the bill. If VPI is chosen, I'd look at used-there's always good deals in the li... | |
| "...and I don't take any advertiser money..." Why is it such a difficult thing to believe? If anything, a reviewer might get an " industry accommodation" to purchase the gear after evaluation? | |
| Directional wires/cables STILL a topic in 2025? The most impressive thing about this thread is the number of responses in a relatively short time span. Carry on. Fun read while I enjoy my fresh ground dark roast listening to newly acquired music from the used bins at ... |
