| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Dear Geoch,if you are using a Cu 180 g mat you may balance the directness by putting a very thin felt mat on top of it. The combination of both mats enables an absolutely harmonic sound. You will not trust your ears anymore, believe me...best @ fu... | |

| What is the best Reel To Reel machine ever built? My new machine has arrived today, hopefully you regard it as appropriate. I was happy that it matched the car's space - but no more milimeters left. I needed help to bring it into my room and it got dark very early at my place So tomorrow I will s... | |
| TW-Acustic Raven 10.5 or DaVinci Grandezza?? I have started my Grandezza experience with Peter Brem's first arm long time ago and received one of the first units ( which doesn't mean it is special). Later on I had two Grand Grandezzas, the current design. From my own experience I agree it is... | |

| TW-Acustic Raven 10.5 or DaVinci Grandezza?? Dear Raul,you are still on your crusade against Dertonearm. It looks like you are deeply hurt by his argumentation. You might know that it is no good style saying bad things about someone without being specific. This is a coward like behavior. Did... | |
| TW-Acustic Raven 10.5 or DaVinci Grandezza?? Mike,who brought you on the trail of Dgad? There is no group, believe me. Of course these are individuals coming together, exchanging ideas and also having very different ideas on many audio subjects.It is like in the US too where some audio frien... | |

| What is the best Reel To Reel machine ever built? some impression from RMAF 2011:Tape Decks This was more than a bit surprising. I've always known that a good deck crushes the sound of vinyl providing you have source tapes that are fairly close to the masters. I was amazed to see so many top shel... | |

I heard he is preparing building an apparature to get rid of distortions where ever they will move to.We need to understand this goo... | |
| What is the best storage for cartridges? Dear Raul,You are spoiled with humidity in your region - no need for you in your lovely Fiesta garden restaurant when you are D'jay... Maybe it is not the humidor itself, you can take it out but the storage and handling is just easy - and no light... |
