Max - are you referring to a return policy - such as "return within 30 days for a full refund" type of policy?Email them - see what they sayYou may find it is something similar to Schiit - 15 days onlyI know it's always nice when you can do this t... 
REVIEW: Soundsmith Denon DL103
PH - thanks for that detail - maybe I'll opt for Boron when I get my old DL-103 reworked down the line. It will be interesting to hear the differenceI too was concerned about playing old records, but fortunately most of mine in relatively good sha...

Mental - since you are into DIY you might want to checkout these PC's and IC'sCable ConstructionThe power cables are very dynamic, contribute greatly to a much better image and allow the amp to exert much better control over the speakers - they ar...

Mental - I was just really fortunate to find a technician that is focused on value and service and not on his wallet :-) The first job he did for me was to rework my tube amp - gave me two upgrade options and recommended I opt for the cheaper of t... 
REVIEW: Soundsmith Denon DL103
Ph - I opted for the standard plastic body with the Ruby OC/CL stylus. Just testing the waters at present.I applied my own brass baseplate which allows for firmer mounting without stressing the body.I figure that was enough for starters - perhaps ...

Sb - if these are the same cables you are promoting on other threads - what you have is Mogami bulk cable with KLEI Copper Harmony RCA's soldered onto the ends.That is NOT really a KLEI Interconnect is itRegards

Thanks Ph - took me a while, but since "dipping my toe" I find "the water is incredibly fine"A nice investment that has definitely paid off :-) 
REVIEW: KLEI gZero20 Interconnect
Yping - on my system - yes, it was noticeably better!I qualify my response because I do not know how resolving your system is?- if your system is not capable of resolving to the level of the gZero20's, then you would be wasting your money.- if it ... 
REVIEW: KLEI gZero20 Interconnect
Yping - as with anything in this obsessive hobby, gauging performance improvements is relative to the person and their various system components and cables.I can only state with certainty that each successive model in the gZero line has yielded no... 
REVIEW: Soundsmith Denon DL103
Stringreen - my knowledge of cartridges is very limited. I really didn't "get into" vinyl until a couple of years ago when I rebuilt and upgraded my turn table. At that point I opted for a Denon because of it's stellar reviews and very attractive ... 
REVIEW: KLEI gZero20 Interconnect
Mofi - that is Aussie Dollars (LOL)But seriously - If I understand Keith Louie correctly...- this is NOT a couple of plugs soldered onto a piece of stock bulk cable- The neutral conductors are hand wound around the signal conductor in a very compl...

RL - a new appreciation you say? - You got that right :-)My vinyl has never sounded this good and I'm buying more new vinyl as a result.Regards... 
Upgrading interconnects
Take a look at the KLE Innovations cables.I've tried most of their cables and all of their RCA's and I haven't found anything that can compete, especially at the price.I compared the gZero3 with a silver Kimber Kable XLR on a 50k system, and the g...

Steve - also take the opportunity to assess the state of the internal wires.Copper Quality has come a long way since they were built and it may be advantageous to rewire them as well, but don't go overboard with really heavy gauge wire.Something l...
