| What is the “World’s Best Cartridge”? @newtoncr Thank you ! Mike has already said this, but the extra detail is welcome. | |
| One turntable with two arms, or two turntables with one each - which would you prefer? Panzerholz is a material like any other. It has it's uses in places which require good rigidity and high damping, like tonearm wands for low compliance cartridges and turntable motor boards. No magic, just engineering. | |
| Phone preamp question Glad it's worked for you. | |
| One turntable with two arms, or two turntables with one each - which would you prefer? I find that Pz warps only when left unsealed. Is your experience otherwise? Thanks! | |
| Speakers that scale Magnepan (any) and Quad ESL’s, if you like planar sound, which I do. | |
| What is the “World’s Best Cartridge”? Thank you for the compliment, Raul, but I don't know enough to have a useful opinion. | |

| What is the “World’s Best Cartridge”? @richardkrebs Thank you for your review of the Hyperion. @aj523 Why do you like yours? How would you characterize the sound? Comparison? Thanks! | |
| Need 25 foot interconnects As others have mentioned, the starquad configuration is best for a noisy environment. Canare L-4E6S is the very best because the shielding is the best: heavy, braided, pig to work with. Mogami is almost as good, but the shielding is twisted, so no... | |
| What is the “World’s Best Cartridge”? How would you characterize the Hyperion? Analytical, lush, ??? Thanks! | |
| Recommendations for HiFi Listening Room Yes, my driver never quite gets it right. | |
| Recommendations for HiFi Listening Room @kennyc TAS 50 Greatest Bargains in High-End Audio Hadn’t looked in ages - interesting though, that Magnepan speakers come up in 4 of 5 categories. Got to say that a pair of Magnepan DWM (woofer) panels really improved my system. |
