| Drying time after a VPI record cleaner? After a full rotation I lift the tube for a second to clear both the tube and the brush. Then I vacuum one more revolution and the record is dry. | |
| Hype, Hyperbole and high price! My garage system is Bottlehead SETs, Bottlehead pre and phono pre, AH! cd, Thorens TT and Madisound BK-16s with Mirage sub. So it’s a "kick butt" little tube system. What interconnects I use make little audible difference so I use sub $200 IC’s. I... | |
| Audio Research SP9 MKII I have owned both the MK II and the MK III. If you like the MK II you'll love the MK III.Bill | |
| Nordost Odin or Valhalla 2 Nordost has a long history of sounding thin so it's no surprise the reputation lives on. It's not true anymore. | |
| music. on vinyl I don't hesitate to buy Music on Vinyl, Pure Pleasure, Friday Music or Vinyl Lovers. There's a price to pay for bettering the odds but no guarantee. | |

| What is best turntable for listening to Rock from the sixties like Led Zeppelin? That sixties/seventies sound was more a speaker thing IMO. That's how Bose got their popularity. Maybe try the JBL 12" 3-ways. The cart on its own won't take you there. | |
| Do you like Mexican music?? I like live Mexican folk music with the horns and guitars. Not so much at home, recorded. There are a couple of songs by Tito and Tarantula on the "From Dusk till Dawn" soundtrack I like. If you like the movie, the soundtrack is excellent. Sor... | |

| Why do all audio forums on the internet seem "dead" ? The ipod/MP3 generation has the money now. | |
| Sellers Beware!!! I will not sell outside of the U.S. That’s precautionary. I recently listed interconnects and accepted an offer from L.A. The buyers Paypal shipping address was just a city - no street or number. The buyer supplied that. When I searched it was obv... | |
