| What are the best bang for the buck on higher end headphones? @freediver , are the Focals you refer to the Utopia? Have not heard the HE 6 cans but all the reviews seem to love them, they are just hard to drive with a headphone amp as you know. @big_greg, talk to me about the Audeze 4 if you would as I am ba... | |
| Vpi tnt or vpi rosewood prime b Wow with all the hate for the 3D arm I should be able to buy one reasonably as I am a confident inspired owned now just need 1 more to mount another cart. Enjoy the music. | |
| how to get the SME 309 tail down-help Not familiar with the mechanics of your arm but it seems you might need a cartridge spacer between your headshell and cartridge. Maybe someone will chim in on where you can get these or make your own, after installing it you will have to raise the... | |
| Vpi tnt or vpi rosewood prime b @stereo5 , thanks for your response and I get where you are coming from, the unipivots are certainly not for everyone and it sounds like you and your wife have found your nirvana and playing a lot of vinyl and that ain't a bad thing. Enjoy the music. | |

| Should I get an SL-1200G Spent a little time with the 1200G and liked it but no where near enough to sell my VPI Prime for and that was before I added the SMFA, Periferal Ring and SDS to the mix. With that said I feel the Aries is a step up from the Prime and that is what... | |
| Should I get an SL-1200G One word of caution if you do buy the 1200, don't sell the Aries first as I believe you will realize you have taken a step or two or..... backwards. Just sayin. | |
| Who needs a Preamp?? I do. | |
| LiL Feat - Paul Barrere Gone At 71 What a wonderful and talented core of talent in a great band that he was a hugh part of. I'll be playing more Little Feat than usual in the coming weeks, so sad. | |
| Why do YOU love Vinyl/or hate vinyl @lelleturbo, don't take my retort too seriously, I was just yanking your chain and actually enjoyed your sense of humor. Thanks for posting. | |
| Why do YOU love Vinyl/or hate vinyl @lelleturbo, so a funnel gramophone and wax rolls gets you closer to reality? Wow what insight, maybe you can do that while you play your geetar and make your fruit bowls. Enjoy the music | |
| General question about tube preamps and gain To answer your question, I am not sure that I am driving the tubes harder, just that with the attenuation I am getting more into the sweet spot of the volume controls. Both the pres I have seem to have benifited greatly with attenuation employed, ... |
