| What phono cartridge is suited for metal and heavy rock? Try a Audio-Technica VM540ML. I bought one while deciding on a new cartridge. The diamond on my Hana SH just disappeared. I actually liked it better than the SH. | |
| Speakers for daughter Safe & Sound in Chicopee has some good deals. They have online & in store shopping. No affiliation. | |
| Unico Primo integrated amp I have the Primo also. I bought it in Black. I love the sound. I replaced the stock 12AX7 also with a Tungsram from Upscale (Kevins stash). I replaced the stock 12AX7 before with a NOS Brimar. The Tungsram is so much better, it's like I added a su... | |

| inexpensive phono pre amp I had a Emotiva XPS-1 for a second TT. It was really nice. Sounded great, quiet. Nice & small. I really liked it. I sold it because I sold my 2nd TT. It is MM/MC with adjustments for load impedance. | |
| turntable for daughter Goodwins is in Waltham now. I haven't been there in a while though. I used to go to the Boston store in the late 70s also. | |
| turntable for daughter Maybe it would be good to have her go to Goodwins High End in Boston & pick out what she likes. They carry Pro-ject & Rega. Fidelis & Audio Video Therapy in Nashua, NH are also a great places to go. | |
| I'm confused - Different music...different speakers? I had the Hawks for a few years, great at low volumes. Turn it up and the little Revelator just can't handle it. I sold them. I also have a pair of Polk LSi 15s. I compared them at the same time. The Hawks sounded much better at low volume. Cra... | |
| Seeking advice for speakers for my Family Room I have a Denon, not as nice as yours. I've had it for 10 years. I think it sounds really good. I've been using Polk LSi 15s as fronts. The new Polks seem nice & have great reviews. Maybe you could audition them. | |
| Recommend an Entry Level Turntable (And maybe an integrated Amp) If it were me & I had 5k I would start with a Marantz MODEL 30 Integrated Amplifier. | |
| Acoustic Signature speed change from 33 to 45 I have an older WOW & just have to touch it. | |

| Where to go from Grado Gold? I have the Audio Technica VM540ML, to me anything but bright and thin.Sounds pretty amazing to me. I like it better than my Hana SH. | |
| Mobile Fidelity StudioDeck Setup Issue I think you can just lower the cue lever. Looks like there is a hex nut there. | |
| Life After Technics SL1200 Mk5 You might want to look into the KAB Fluid Damper. I thought it made a big improvement on my 1210 MG5. Plenty of reviews. |
