| New favorite VINYL Album? Yello "Touch"Not much in common with their earlier work which I also like. This has been a crowd favorite for the last couple of months in my room. | |
| Garrard 301 If you want to use your original European strobe platter to check speed here in the States, there is a battery powered strobe light that is made to work with the 50Hz Garrard platter. | |
| Anyone here knows the Reed 3Q tonearm? There will be one playing in room #1126 at RMAF if that helps.I would like to tell you how it sounds but as I am the importer, I will let others tackle that. I will add it has been demoed against some very serious and expensive arms and has yet to... | |
| EMT turntables as good as other great vintage TT? EMT tables are amazing works of engineering. Especially the 950. I own several 930s, 950s, 948s and even a 938. I studied these tables while I was working on my new table. Of the 45 or so tables I studied for this project, the EMT 950 is the stand... | |
| Ortofon MC A90 Cartridge VTF Another good question Norm. 2.25 g was the optimal sound to my ears with the Tri-Planar. I went as low as 2.10 but the sound lost a lot of the fullness or weight it had at 2.25. It will be interesting to see how low I can go on VTF before the A90 ... | |
| Ortofon MC A90 Cartridge VTF Hi Andrew,Great question about VTF changes from one arm to another using the same cart. Mike had wondered the same thing during our trials. The A90 I had at Mike's with about 40 hours of use, was most happy on the Reed at 1.92 g. The same cart was... | |

| Ortofon MC A90 cartridge First off, I will put my two cents in on the A90. I have made a genuine run at listening to most of the better carts out there including a few MI/MM. In my opinion, the A90 is one of the three best carts I have heard in my rig and of the three, th... | |
| RMAF 2009 Analog Report + Meet and Greet Thanks for your thoughts Dre. The LP you heard was Stephane Grappelli "Young Django"Highly recommended. | |
| Platter Upgrade for Garrard 301 Whisky...I like the idea of that MUCH better than a law firm. The down side is, working with me, I think Albert would drink all the profits. Hi Albert.Since the original topic of this thread dealt with 301 platters, I will add my two cents. I have... | |

Maybe YOU need something repeated 16 times in order for it to sink in but most of us do not.Everyon... | |
| Steam cleaning records 2 Just picked one up tonight at Walgreens. They had several. Glad to get you one if you can't get one local or online. | |
| Would Like To Hear From Strain Gauge Owners Hi Tom,Vac Man's review describes the sound quite well, especially in relation to a ZYX UNIverse. I have had a SG for about six months and have owned four UNIverse carts so I feel confident about this comparison. When compared with some of the ver... |
