Linn Sondek phono cable
Linn uses a DIN plug for the tonearm end of the cable. You can use any brand of cable you want. If you want the same as you have you will need to get it from your Linn dealer. They do offer a newer cable "silver" that comes in two lengths. I just ... 
So long, Jessie
"Let the Rough Side Drag and let the Smooth Side Show, when you pull that load every where you go". He left us with some very good music and will be missed by many. 
Rega RP10 VTA shims
As a follow up, first off, a sincere expression of gratitude to Mr.Carr for his advice. I received and installed my 3.5mm shims and readjusted everthing accordingly last night. I was a little hard to get out of bed this morning as I couldn't stop ... 
How to isolated stand from springy floors?
If you have access to the basement and it is un finished, you could put in some "lally columns" see linkhttp://www.lowes.com/pd_210155-46417-P+M204_0__?productId=3201387I did this when I had an LP12 to reduce the springy response to footfall. Loca... 
Installing a stereo in my garage. Suggestions?
Actually I use Peltor noise canceling ear muffs with AM/FM and an whole house FM transmitter. This way I can continue listening to the same music source when running equipment. Yes,the quality isn't now the level of Audeze, but I am really focusin... 
Installing a stereo in my garage. Suggestions?
I share your love of WW as well, and although I don't seem to be getting any project time lately, I do love music in the shop. I bought a Denon receiver and a pair of Energy speakers. I have speakers mounted upside down close to the ceiling and ge...

Rega RP10 VTA shims
Jonathan, Thank you so much for your response. I have found some shims that are available in .5MM increments.I am planning to order those and set it to 3.5MM I realize that is just .1MM to high. But if I fand that the performace is "dialing-in" to... 
Fleetwood Mac
Martykl, I stand corrected, it was Peter Banks from Yes that I was thinking of. 
Fleetwood Mac
I agree with Loomisjohnson that "Future Games" was a great album and I hope that someone will re-master and release this on 180G vinyl. That was the debut of Christine McVie and just a good collection. FM is kinda like the band Yes in that they ha... 
Bi wiring with separate cables
Years ago I could only afford bulk cable, so in looking for ever elusive improvement. I ran a Naim A5/Linn K20 combo and got good results, independently they seemed lacking. The Naim delivered good bass but was lacking on the highs and the Linn ha... 
Boarding school or duct tape?
My method is when my little nieces and nephews come over is hide everything in the bedroom and lock the door and put fake cabinet doors on my cabinet. The room looks vacant but I get to vacuum where the speakers were. So far it is been OK but........ 
The sound of my new electrical service: Day 1
Just a random thought here. Could it be that you voltage has either increased or decreased enough given the new equipment you listed, I would favor increased. So now your equipment has changed the efficiency in which it operates with a more correc... 
Buzz between Marantz SR5008 and Mcintosh C2300
I would lift the ground at the furman as that would be easiest. But Jea48, raises an interesting point as well. I have at one time or another had ground hum induced by sat TV boxes. And re-reading your comments, have you disconnected the 2300 and ...
