Best, or ideal record clamp
Count me in with TT Weights ... I'm a believer. I owned the Brass heavyweight clamp, liked it, but upgraded to Larry's top of the line record weight and noticed an immediate improvement in transparency. Also own his heavy weight outer ring clamp a... 
question about installation of 20 amp wall plug
Please clarify ... the PS Audio Ports are rated for both 15amp and 20amp I'm told. Can they be installed in a 15amp dedicated line? 
centering the human voice
I think mapman has a valid point. I also find vocals on a number of recordings to be off to the right or left a bit, and I also get perfectly centered vocals, which makes me believe that this is just the nature of the recording. As he mentioned, t... 
Graham Phantom vs. Phantom II
I received an e-mail from Bob yesterday regarding the Micropoise bubble level. The new spirit level is a new addition and can be added. He recommends that it is done at his factory but as Audiolui mentioned, it's possible for a user to do it thems... 
Graham Phantom vs. Phantom II
Thanks for the info Audiolui ... too bad Bob is not responding to e-mail messages. I assume the micropoise is not an upgrade that can be made to existing Phantom II's ... it does sound like a useful addition to the tonearm. 
Graham Phantom vs. Phantom II
Smoffatt - We must have the 1st production run Phantom II tonearms. I e-mailed Bob asking about this feature but I doubt I will get a reply ... 
Graham Phantom vs. Phantom II
I own a Phantom II but it does not have the spirit level attached to the pivot housing ... when did Bob add this feature to the II? Very happy with the arm and found it to be a noticeable improvement over my 2.2. 
Ortofon Windfeld - anyone heard one?
I couldn't be happier with my PW! I owned the Jubilee and find it hard to believe that you "didn't get into it". Is it possible that the Jubilee was not fully broken in? The PW does indeed improve on the Jubilee but I also found the Jubilee to be ... 
US only sales WHY???
Just curious and please don't take this question wrong ... do you sellers that restrict your sales only to the U.S. ever buy from international sellers or do you only buy from the U.S.? 
Bruce Cockburn: Slice O Life
REL2You will enjoy the DVD. Bill Mason was a wonderful man and was well respected in the paddling community. I was fortunate to have met Bill many moons ago while working in an outdoor shop where he was friends with the owner. The soundtrack is cl... 
Bruce Cockburn: Slice O Life
I'm also a BC fan and recall his early 70's concerts when he played solo in a chair with the percussion instruments on stands next to him.I recommend that BC fans also pick up "Waterwalker", the 1984 canoe documentary by Bill Mason. BC did the sou... 
Greatful Dawg; Jerry Garcia & Dave Grisman
Another CD or LP worth searching out is Gator Strut by Mike Marshall. He played with Grisman in the past and has a similar style but as AMG describes the music on this CD ... progressive bluegrass! An interesting CD with Fleck, Rice, Douglas, Wass... 
Ortofon Per Windfeld Load Impedance?
That comment Raul about relying on my hearing was said in good humour of course and I understand the need of reliable tools to help trouble shoot a system. I look forward to comparing different settings when my phonostage is upgraded and changing ... 
Ortofon Per Windfeld Load Impedance?
Thanks for the info Florian. It was suggested by a reliable source when I first bought my PW to load it at 1000 Ohms. I have to admit, I was sceptical. Since the load is hard wired on my phonostage, I thought I'd get a few suggestions from other P... 
Ortofon Per Windfeld Load Impedance?
Thankyou Audiofeil for the advice, just what I was looking for. I previously owned the Jubilee and just recently upgraded to the PW. I ran the Jubilee at 100 Ohms with great success and I am presently running the PW at 100 Ohms also but was lookin...
