Bad experience with an electrician
Shocking Erik, just shocking!  
Anthem vs Arcam
I can only add my experience with Anthem, I had a D2v that I sold and bought a Marantz 8805. I am not sure if you are using this for 2 channel or not, but the Marantz is much more musical and warmer in sound than the Anthem. I mainly use my Proces... 
Anyone try this combo: Rogue Audio Ares II Magnum with Lyra Kleos
miijostyn, thank you it feels good  I have had the Kleos for quite a few years now and have always liked the Lyra sound. And it does sound good with the Linto, but hoping to find more performance with a new phono stage. I wish we a had a Sutherla... 
Box Set Outer Sleeves
Bags Unlimited is your best source. They may not have an exact fit but will be as close you’ll find, IMHO of course.  
Looking for a McIntosh amp that gives a great example of the “McIntosh Sound”
I have had a MC352 and currently use a MC402. I feel the 402 does sound better than the 352. More speed without sacrificing warmth, I talked with 2 dealers about trading up to the new 462 and told the 402 sounds better and has a build quality that... 
This can’t be serious??? Check this out at Dedicated Audio

Do You Tell Others How Much You Have Invested in Your System?

Lamont Dozier Passes Away
Wow what a loss to the music world. Growing up thru the early 60’s I can’t imagine that my love for music would be the same with out this Trio of writers, Lamont Dozier may not have been actively writing In his senior years, but has left a legacy.... 
Happy Birthday Phonograph
Well the album jackets and storage worked out a lot better than the cylinder. And we get 2 sides to play...bonus!  
Linn LP 12
Malbor, I owned an LP12 for a few years and I miss the sound. But I will never miss the constant maintenance. Tuning the suspension is a headache and the Linn upgrades are expensive. But when properly set up, ahhh the sound. i went with a Rega RP... 
arc ref5-se
I owned one for a few years and loved it. I sold it to return to Solid State and bought an Ayre KX-5 Twenty, realized I had made a mistake. Sold the Ayre and bought and still have an LS28SE and am happy again. By comparison the two are very close ...
