Record Cleaning Machine
Keith Monks. That's the one. 
Helikon LOADING
I think, most of us are on the right track, Raul with his opinion and Gmorris with his explanations. When the wire in the arm is silver or copper, you can choose different loads, next is the wire from the termination box to the preamp, same story.... 
Transfiguration Orpheus - Has anyone tried it ?
Karl-Heinz wrote me, that the Orpheus is really good sounding and that one of his audiophile friends bought it after owning a Temper V.He is very satisfied with that replacement.Hope that helped a bit. 
Helikon LOADING
Years ago, all Lyra's were made for 47k, but only a few Phono Stages made that, so the manual changed the loading recommendations. I think, it is System dependent, too. When you have an adjustable one, you can check it out, from from setting you w... 
Schroeder vs. Triplanar VII Sonic Differences
Well, after reading all those mails, let's be honest: Every opinion will vary on the setting of each Arm. Each has it's one strengths and honestly, maybe a few weaks. It is the point of view from everyone now, to select. But, at the end of the day... 
XLO Cables
Hello Wellfed, thanks for your kind recommendation. I will think about it, I never used material like that. 
Schroeder vs. Triplanar VII Sonic Differences
Well, Frank, I got the info about the SQ from one of your dealers. Possible, that HE didn't understand all, but HE told me, what I wrote, that this version is significantly more expensive than the Reference. Possible, that pricing is sometimes dif... 
XLO Cables
I use the XLO signature for that, but honestly, I like it the way it is and I am careful with expensive investigations into Digital. I stopped it some time ago, most CD's are inferior for me, from the Mastering and sound. I never tried Unlimited o... 
XLO Cables
No, I haven't. I only have listened to all others ( Ltd. Edition, Signature, Reference etc. and their power cords ), but not to that one.Did you? 
XLO Cables
Dear Wellfed, it is for the DaVinci Audio Labs Arm. 
XLO Cables
Dear Mikesinger, I think, I have made the same experiences you did.Well, I am not a cable maniac, I tried a few well regarded ones and it was more or less boring compared to XLO. So I stopped that. But maybe I missed something, you know ....upgrad... 
Schroeder vs. Triplanar VII Sonic Differences
No replacement for the DPS or Reference. Different wire and something to make adjustment a bit easier. But I heard, 1500 extra. No problem, getting divorced is more expensive. 
What phono stage candidates should I consider?
Well there are a few out there, but when honest, we all have different tastes, means, what I think is good is not right for the next and so on. I tried and listened to a few Phono Stages, I have a Basis rig too and listened to some Lyra's, for me ... 
Decca Jubilee / Dynavector XV-1s / ZYX / Allaerts
Hello Sirspeedy, I listened to some allaerts, too I have made the same conclusion like some members of your group.Good, but why the Hype?One of my Audiophile friends is using the latest Transfiguration ( above the Temper W and V ) as a loan from t...
