| speed controller for Lenco or Garrard Reviving this thread. Does anyone know for sure whether the SOTA Eclipse version of the Eagle/Roadrunner outputs enough wattage for the Lenco motor? I'm very interested in this combo. Thanks. | |
| What's the future for vinyl lovers? I'm bummed by this fire. I loved the fact that increasing numbers of new jazz releases, some by relatively obscure players, were coming out on vinyl again. That momentum is likely to be lost or seriously impeded by this fire, it seems. | |
| Does PMC sound boxy? (Maggie, Magico & PMC comparison needed) @scott_w -- Indeed I do, and still find them to be terrific speakers. The SE you've ordered address, among other things, the two big weaknesses I found in mine: the binding posts and the stock stands. I replaced my binding posts with top Furutech ... | |
| Which cantilever to choose for re-tip FWIW, I chose boron for my Benz Ebony LO, which is what it came with, and I'm very pleased. Sounds like stock, which is what I wanted. | |

| Hidden Gems in Pre-Owned Solid State Power Amplifiers? @patrickdowns I’d heard his amps were great too. I cannot find anything about the owner of the company... it’s like he vanished. Did he die? Ralph Catino is still around, living in the Boston area last time I heard from him, which was maybe three ... | |
| Hidden Gems in Pre-Owned Solid State Power Amplifiers? Reference Line Audio Silver Signature. Owned one for 20 years and it's still the best solid state amp I've heard. | |
| Is the Manley Steelhead still relevant? I ran a Steelhead RC for four years, during which time I went through four turntables, five tonearms, and many cartridges. I liked it a lot; for the money and versatility, it's hard to beat. But that said, it was readily bested by the Allnic H3000... | |
| Grace Level ll Not to shift the focus of the thread but I thought I'd mention my experience with the F-9e, which I owned but sold, and the F-14, which I currently own. I bought the F-9e as NOS, factory sealed, from LPGear maybe four years ago. With its stock sty... | |
| Phono stage with 3 inputs Aesthetix Rhea has 3. The new Gold Note PH-1000 will have 3 when it's released, although one will be XLR, I believe. Allnic H3000 has 4. | |
| garrard vs clearaudio innovation I used to own an Innovation Wood, which I ran alongside a Nantais Reference Lenco MkII. Had it on a Minus-K platform with a Phantom Supreme and Universal arm. Sold the Innovation and its arm, kept the Lenco, added a Brinkmann Oasis and a Phantom I... | |

| Worth pursuing analog sound from digital? I’m a confirmed vinyl guy. Two turntables, three tonearms, more cartridges than I can remember. I’m also in my 60s and been collecting records since the early ’70s. But I’m here to tell you, vinyl takes a lot of commitment, with a pretty steep lea... | |

| Tidal WiFi not as good as cd Tidal through an Auralic Aries Mini with an S-Booster power supply via Wifi sounds better than CDs through my Marantz SA-11S2. |
