| Interconnects for MHDT Orchid Thanks for all the input about tubes. Any other suggestions about the cables and/or cables/tube combinations? Thanks | |
| Interconnects for MHDT Orchid Thanks or all the responses, decooney, which Tesla tube did you use? | |
| Interconnects for MHDT Orchid I have been using an old TADAC DAC which had balanced outputs. So I had been using Acoustic Zen Matrix Reference II balanced cables. So, with the Orchid I need to switch to RCA cables. I know they make an adapter (balanced to RCA) but I read some ... | |
| Interconnects for MHDT Orchid Thanks for your responses. A "transparent, lively cable" was mentioned. Any specific name of cables? Any other MHDT users out there? | |
| looking for interconnect under 200 dollars You might consider JPS Ultraconductor2. I auditioned them from Cable Co. and liked them quite a bit. Ultimately went with a used pair of Acoustic Zen Matrix from their used section but it was a bit over your $ limit. Anyway you can try many pairs ... | |
| NACA5 Speaker Cable Thanks to all for the responses. I've got a 15 foot pair so I don't think I need any more of it. It is stiff so I can't imagine trying to biwire with it.Andrew | |
| Problem advice please Same thing happened to me with a Parasound preamp. I inadventently "rebooted" it by unplugging the unit. When I plugged it back in - lights were on. Worth a shot.Andrew | |

| Joseph Audio RM 25si vs Sonus Faber Grand Piano I own the Joseph's (Mk2 version) and am extremely happy with them. In my auditioning they beat out comparably priced Thiels (2.4), Audio Physic (Tempo), Revel (F30) and Totems (Forest) but I have not heard the SF's. Thus, I can't offer any compari... | |
| Linn Basik Tonearm - effective mass? Thanks for your interest throughout.Andrew | |
| Linn Basik Tonearm - effective mass? I don't know what the parameters ought to be. All I know is that with my current system woofer excursions happened. Previous to the Grado I had a Linn K9 cartridge mounted with no problem evident.Whether Grado is being straight up or passing the b... | |
| Linn Basik Tonearm - effective mass? This is an update for those who might have wondered about this thread's issue:1. The Linn Basik arm is 12 g.2. Grado states that this is too little for the Platinum cartridge.Thus, use caution in purchasing Grado's for use with such arms.Andrew | |
| Linn Basik Tonearm - effective mass? Twl,Thanks for your response. If I was certain that it was a compliance problem (although it likely is) I would go ahead and get a new cartridge. However, this is still less than completely clear. I'd rather not get a new cartridge and have the pr... |
