| Shopping for a preamp Don't overlook the Audible Illusions Modulas 3A or 3B, depending on cartridge preference you can go with the all tube phone or the John Curl phono boards if you want to drive lower output moving coils. | |
| Questionable service at Soundsmith My personal experience with Soundsmith has been nothing but stellar and this has been over a period of 7 years and 9 carts rebuilt and or retipped, as a matter of fact they have my Universe as we speak, in for a suspension adjustment. Something ce... | |
| cable and interconnect advice? I have to say that the Acoustic Zen Hologram II that I use with a pair of Wilson Sophias have been nothing but spectacular as well as any of their other cables I use in my system. Point being the first choice should be the Acoustic Zens with the A... | |
| CHINESE tubes? That is a very broad statement, cheap Chinese tubes are just that, cheap and in most cases you get what you pay for but I quit chasing NOS tubes for my all tube system a long time ago, if Psvane makes a premium tube for what ever my need is I buy,... | |

| Etna or Atlas for Superscout? What is a Superscout, do you mean Super Scoutmaster with the 3D arm? If so I do not believe you could outclass the table arm combo with any cart as long as it fell within the parameters of the design goals of said arm and the Lyras all seem to mat... | |
| What settings do people use with Lyra cartridges? I like 100 ohm on my Helikon SL. | |
| VPI Scount to Prime, now static Do you have a Zerostat by Milty, if not try one they are a reasonable priced tweek and really work well. | |
| Anyone familiar with Plinius Koru? I have owned the JC3, the Chinook and the Allnic 1201 which was my favored phono of the three even liked it as well as the Steelhead but settled on the Allnic H1500 SE 2 and never looked back, love them Allnics. Both the Allnics are really special... | |
