Continuum Caliburn - really the best TT on earth?
Hi Nilthepill, here is my final verdict: The Continuum Criterion is musically elegant, whilst remaining dynamic. The Copperhead, partnered with the Lyra Olympos, delivers an extremely open and transparent musical soundstage. The quiet, precise and...

Gallant_diva, I will give the A90 some more 20 hours for a fair competition, will come back to you - promise! 
Ortofon MC A90 cartridge
Mike,you are quite right, the A 90 gets very close to the Goldfinger v2. I am playing both and I am surprised about the qualities of the Ortofon. Straight from the start a brilliant sound. How many will be manufactured - 500 ?. I have No 125. I am...

Koetsu Coralstone vs Olympos or Universe?
M189009, You have selected three of the really great cartridges. I am using all but regarding the Coralstone the Mono version. Let me say that I wasn`t a great Koetsu fan, e.g. with the Rosewood I could not cope so far. This changed with the Coral... 
Lyra Titan i and Olympos SL
It is very funny with the Olympos. Most people who listen to it the first time do not get the spirit of this wonderful system even when it is precisely adjusted. This is ok. I have experienced this many times. So it looks like one needs a personal... 
Can Mac/PC compete with High End CDT??

Can Mac/PC compete with High End CDT??
Tbg, is your experience based on special chains you compared, for instance with the same DACs? 
Can Mac/PC compete with High End CDT??
Kijanski - I can show you articles from magazines of the 90ies, even from Japan stating the superior sound from MDs. It was a rush into the new format. Look at the articles about music servers. One company claims they will stop producing CD-player...
