| Does it make sense to use 6k$ Nos tube with 5K$ tube amplifier? The one thing that Psvane has figured out is how to market to the Western world. If it's priced high, it must be better. | |
| Eminent technology et2 on Linn Lp12 When you thinks of an ET arm you immediately think of a non-suspended table, but on reflection, I remember hearing and seeing a lot of Oracle owners using the ET arm on their 3-pillar suspended tables, therefore, why not a Linn. My questions to t... | |
| first impressions of Magico A3's The A3 are Magico's best speakers for the price. The rest of their line are over priced in comparison. | |
| Trained ears. Just like athletes who have to trainrf their bodies, critical listeners need to train their hearing. Wide exposure, frames of reference, concentration, attention to detail...repeat, repeat and repeat. No different than how a wine sommelier or p... | |

| Help with a suggestion for using audio equipment in extremely humid climate conditions Anything that can be stored in a cabinet to protect it from the salt environment. Look at Class D amplifiers. Look at an audio streamer or any other source that has no moving parts. | |
| Tonearms with no anti-skate adjustment When you change the vertical position of a pivot, you are in effect changing the horizontal distance between the stylus/record and pivot point of a fixed length tonearm, which in turn changes the balance. As we reduce the distance between stylus/... | |

| Tonearms with no anti-skate adjustment VTF is maximized when the stylus/record interface and tonearm bearing are horizontally inline with one another. Any deviation from this reference will reduce VTF. Although the VTA will affect VTF, it is not used to set VTF, that's the job of the ... | |
| RIAA, Questions only please It's too bad that the previous thread is now locked as it contained a lot of insightful and useful information. I personally get more from a discussion than I do from a lecture. | |
