| Best Turntable Available Under 2000.00 Naturally, I'll say it again. Teres 135/ Origin Live modified Rega RB250. It's not the most famous, but it is the best sounding in that category - by far. | |
| Strange Tonearm Tweak. Long Viridian, I agree. They were onto something, but the execution, while being a complex beautifully made machine, lacks certain important things and includes problems, that were not needed. I am sure that my mod is not perfect, but it is a simpler s... | |

| Strange Tonearm Tweak. Long I went to the Dynavector web page, and read the info on the 507, and it was very interesting. They had a very good description of why a tonearm should have high lateral mass and low vertical mass. It is notable that the way record grooves are reco... | |
