Accustic Arts
Pubul57, I cannot imagine that Accustic Arts would have put a sub-optimal puck with the transport. I have been unable to identify anyone to really ask about their reaction to using mats, but I must say I have three mats around here from long ago e...

Dev, now more than ever I stick with what I have said about you. You are anything but a person that prefers to try and inform and help others. You just don't want others to note that you have no clothing on. I cannot help you to see what you are b...

Dev, I hope we are all unique individuals. You say I am a very negative individual. I take exceptions to some of your negative posts, such as focussing endlessly on the listing of a dealer who doesn't respond by H-Cat or it being a "joke" or the s...

Dev, thanks for the additional information. I would have to assume that were what you have said true, that KR Audio would have substantial issues with the Importer.I would suggest that I have alerted others to your irrational evaluations, namely t...

Dev, I think you are an unreliable source for this. We have no idea how you got the three Accustic Arts unit, such as whether they were gray market items, or even current models. You note some quality control issues while no one else has said anyt...

I guess I expected the BA Stabilizer to be a replacement puck not a mat. I assume that one continues to use the puck. I even think I have one of these mats. I have about six different cd mats, none of which did anything for me before, but maybe wi... 
Acapella vs. Avantgarde
Yep, I doubt if they are sold there. The website is exemplaraudio.com but it is not very up-to-date.

Amfibius, I would encourage you to try the Exemplar Statement amp. I use it on my La Campanellas with great success. Previously I had used the Reimyo PAT 777. I would not suggest using its line stage which can be bypassed.

John, let me say right on. 
Wadia 581i using as a pre any good
Dev, why don't you get off your butt and go hear one? There is no reason for Roger to answer your ill-conceived questions.

Being long in this hobby and disinterested in HT and totally unconvinced by mc, I see no reason to undertake the expense of adding channels.

Take to a tech unless Forte has a better idea.

Opps, me too. If you are hearing it entirely from the amp body, I would open it up and see if the toroid is loose. If not, loosen it and see if there is rubber beneath it. If not, add three small strips and retighten.

Well, the easiest answer is to take it to a tech. I don't think your speakers are so efficient that they are revealing the problem. Obviously it is not a ground loop problem. Your amp may be picking up something being broadcast from nearby, but yo... 
How international is your system?
This has varied greatly over time, but presently: German speakers and digital; Chinese and American amp; American phono and line stage; American and Hong Kong cables; UK turntable with Japanese mods., Danish tonearm and cartridge with Japanese mod...
