| Next Phonostage I wanted to respond to Wrm57 who said he had a hum problem with his Allnic H-3000. I had the same problem, but I solved it by plugging my preamp into the same zone on my power conditioner that has the H-3000 and my turntable. Before, when I had th... | |
| Next Phonostage I am another very satisfied Allnic H-3000 owner. Mine has a bit of tube rush, but you have to listen very close to the speakers to hear it. In my experience, a minor bit of tube rush is typical and not unusual for tubed components and is not a con... | |
| Speaker cable frustration for Merlin vsm mme I use Anti-Cables, $80 for an 8 foot pair. I have Merlin VSM-MXe's paired with a Joule Electra VZN-80 amplifier. I compared the Anti-Cables extensively with JPS SC3, Audience AU24, and Virtual Dynamics Revelation. While each of these cables seem a... | |

| HELP FedEx Mangles Speakers - Refuses Claim I had an incident in which FedEx opened the boxes of a pair of speakers that I had sold. They repackaged one of the boxes incorrectly and a speaker arrived to the buyer damaged, exactly where the foam had been incorrectly repackaged. I received a ... | |
| Supratek Chenin or Cortese I own a Chenin, and used to own a Cortese. I regret selling the Cortese. I love the Chenin, but the Cortese has a more robust, full bodied sound, with better detail. Perhaps this is due to the better power supply. One drawback is that the extra tu... | |
| Who can fix Supratek preamp??? Kevin Covi co-designed the Cortese. He is located in the U.S. Try krcovi@gmail.com. | |
| triplanar have a din- replace cable w synergistic Din connections are not standard with the Triplanar. I asked Tri to make a din junction box for me a couple years ago. He had my tonearm for two months before he talked me into getting an rca box instead. Bottom line is that he is hesitant to prov... | |
| 2 turntables and one phono stage - Can I??? Why don't you call Joule Electra and ask if they can add a second input? I know they offer this feature for the OPS-2 for a very modest cost. I imagine they could do it for the OPS-1 too. | |
| Cary SLP98 phono The phono stage is excellent. I was able to compare it directly it to two "Class A" phono stages and preferred the Cary. I had both the MC and MM versions, paired with the V12R amplifier. Both were very quiet, with background noise practically ind... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century I had my Cortese for sale and just cancelled the ad. I can't bring myself to give it up. I really enjoy the dynamics and transparency of the Cortese. My Audio Aero Capitole AI, which I had connected directly to my amp, sounded smeared without the ... | |
| Typical upgrade path from VPI? VPI's do not lack mid-bass, IME. I used to have an Aries 2 for about 3 years in my system and really liked it. I ran it with the JMW 9 and later an SME IV, both tonearms set up with a Benz Micro Reference cartridge. Mid-bass was quite tuneful and ... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century I am sorry to hear about Supratek's demise. I have lurked on this thread for awhile, but have not checked in for a month or so. What a surprise.I own a Cortese, which I bought new from Mick a year and a half ago. The Cortese is very special to me.... | |
| Synergistic Research's Tricon Phono Cable I tried, and now own, the Tricon Analogue. The Tricon is a relatively unknown gem, IMO. I did not compare it to cables in the same price league that you have tried, but I did like the Tricon better than cables from Hovland, Cardas, and Graham (thi... |
