| After market Motor + Belt drive for Verdier Maril555, I don't think that Graham Tricker is making his GT Audio Verdier Battery PSU at the moment. However, if enough people are interested, I am sure that he would consider another batch. Why don't you email him ongtaudio@btinternet.comor call... | |
| Who makes the highest quality tube amps? Add in TRON, Border Patrol, LAMM and Kondo to that list. My money went on a TRON Voyager 6W OTA using an EML20B tube. Fabulous sound and unbelievable build quality. My preamp is a TRON Meteor (predecessor of the top end Syren preamp). If you want ... | |
| EL 34 Amp Recommendations Radford STA15 - one of the absolutely truly classic amps. | |
| Next Phonostage Thomas Woschnick uses a TRON Seven phono stage in his own personal system. He doesn't use the Thoress any more at home. Read into that what you will. | |
| $18k Tube preamp for large scale symphonies please Philip,ItÂ’s really hard to make any specific rankings. As Whart says, synergy with your power amp and speakers is important. All too often people forget that preamplifiers and power amps need matching especially in terms of gain. Also knowing the ... | |
| Handheld Recorders for Vinyl Recording I have used an Edirol HR-09 and it works fine. Personally I prefer to use my Pioneer PDR CD recorder. | |

| Goldmund Reference Turntable ? I recently listened to a friend's Goldmund TT/T3P with an Ortofon Jubilee in the UK. It was hooked up to a pair of Devialets and Epilog 1&2s. Fabulous sound. The T3P was troublesome as the optical sensor on the arm gets upset by sunlight comin... | |
| Repairing EMT cartridge You could try Dominic at Northwest Analogue in the UK. His work looks excellent and his prices are very reasonable. Turnaround is quick too!Look at this threadhttp://theartofsound.net/forum/showthread.php?t=11829 | |
| Tron Seven Phono Pierre,Graham Tricker builds his TRON phono stages to order. The TRON Seven has been upgraded since 2006, I believe. Whilst having multiple settings can be convenient, the dip switches could possibly degrade the ultimate sound quality like any oth... | |
| which turntable to buy for $1500 best value ? Used Garrard 401, cheap plywood plinth to get you going and a cheap but good arm e.g. Jelco 750, used Hadcock, Rega etc. | |
| Cartridge Recommendation If you want the most lively cartridge, then buy a Decca (London) cartridge. Stunning dynamics and soundstage. My vintage 60s rebuilt Decca FFSS MkIV C4E in an old 70s Hadcock beats my Schroeder Model 2/Allaerts MC1b on my Platine Verdier. As I hav... | |
| which plinth/tonearm for TD-124 SME or other Here are some ideasIf you want a tonearm that will take standard headshells, then have a look at the Jelco 750.If you're good at tonearm set-up, then a used Hadcock will get your Grado to sing. Beware if you're a vinyl set up virgin though, as the... | |
| which plinth/tonearm for TD-124 SME or other A sorted TD124 is a top class TT. I've had two over the years and only sold mine when I spent a lot more on a Platine Verdier. If you can get someone to cut the granite for you, then just use that. Use the mushrooms as well to start with. As for a... |
