Hey - What Happened to the Beware of Viking Acoustics Thread
David - It took you 1.5 years to build a pair of speakers. I never once complained. I rarely even checked in with you. That's called an easy going customer but I don't appreciate your lies or stealing my money. Drop the speakers?! I have no idea ... 
Hey - What Happened to the Beware of Viking Acoustics Thread
@vikinghorn if my partial refund was all I was supposed to get back then why for 6 months did you keep telling me more money was coming? I have all the emails which show you stating this over and over. Also, why did you lie and say the speakers we...

@audition__audio you should also read my first post which clearly states Viking sent me a partial refund check. Not sure why this is so hard to understand. I have nothing to hide.      
Hey - What Happened to the Beware of Viking Acoustics Thread
That is hilarious @vikinghorn. You shipped me beautiful speakers? All the images are posted at WBF. If you think that’s quality workmanship and acceptable then wow, don’t know what to say! You keep on rehashing the same things. If you would read ...

@willgolf I respect the fact that you want to protect your investment but keep in mind I was a Viking customer for 7 years before the start of this incident 2.5 years ago. I too had fine prior experiences. Just goes to show that things can change ...

There’s a thread on audio shark now about a buyer who was scammed by another company and audiogon also deleted that thread.

I assume Viking got audiogon to remove it. You can see Viking’s response over at WBF.   
Upgrade SUT For Denon DL103
Why not get the Ana Mighty SUT?

Copper EMIA step up for low impedance cartridges and a $3k cart would be my choice. Your current step up is limiting your choices. 
Back To Static!
I recently got the CSPort IME1, which is similar to the DS Audio. This completely removes all voltage charge from the vinyl. Nothing comes close to this and I’ve tried everything over the years. There is a noticeable difference in sound quality wi... 
Daily Record cleaning
CSPort IME1 for static. It’s expensive but truly the only thing that works (I’m sure the similar DS Audio does too). This device completely removes any static. The improvement in sound is quite noticeable and I’m not only talking about the static ... 
Kuzma 4Points and Lyra carts
@chakster I wouldn’t say the tip profile is everything. The new DaVa FC A1 (field coil) is conical and by all accounts it equals/betters the top tier cartridges with modern profiles. I’ve only had the time to briefly experiment with mine. Implemen... 
Phasemation (Phase-Tech) MC cartridges
When I measured my PP-500 with Adjust+ it was dead on perfect. These carts are very well made.
