| Phono stage good for classical and jazz? I can endorse a Pass phono stage on any type of music. I would be very cautious on any phono stage that only sounds good on limited ranges of music.I have never heard the Liberty but I have personally dealt with the head of the company and think h... | |
| Is a tube phono better than ss? "Also a factor is whether the solid state is Class A circuit design"I seem to recall all SS phono stages and SS Pre-amp circuits run in class A, so I don't think that's it.I've had tubed and solid state gear. My tubed stuff was CJ Premier and Rogu... | |
| Back to TT after 24 years The RB300 has an integrated cable which is evident just by looking at it. I would suggest replacing the belt and check to make sure the bearing has oil in it. I would also make sure the nut holding the arm and bearing is tight. The K9 was a decent... | |
| Personal Tuner Evolution have not had many tuners. I had an Onkyo 9090II(super sensitive, OK sound); Dynaco FM3 (old fashioned sounding), and a Magnum Dynalab MD100 (purchased in 2001) which I upgraded to an MD105 (2012). I also has a Mac MR67 in my home for a few days bu... | |
| Meridian 508.24 Service I will tell you different. I owned a 508.24 which was a great player in its day, but digital circa 2014 is better. For what the 508.24 cost new ($4000) you can buy a whale of an incredible player. I now own a Simaudio CD player which in my system ... | |

| Rega Planar P25 question P25's were not sold without tonearms, so someone took off the original RB600 and switched it for the Clearaudio. I don't know if it's a proper fitment as I don't know if a Cleearaudio arm uses the same mounting point as the Rega arm.The Exact 2 ca... | |
| Why do McIntosh come with cheap plastic remotes? The more I think of it the more I applaud an inexpensive but functional remote. The hi-end is infested with too much bling. give me outstanding quality and I could not care less what it looks like. | |
| VPI Scout and Scout 1.1 Question One person says the new platter gives you more top end, another suggest the new platter gives you more at the low end. If it does both then does it really do anything? | |
| Do Rega arms work well with LP12s? I used to have a Rega arm on my LP12, now I have an Ekos. Ekos is a better arm, and the Rega does work with the LP 12 but you might need to trim the right rear corner brace to fit the Rega. | |
| At What Age Does An Audiophile Buy His Last Amp? Great question, great answers. For me music is a tonic. Last year I had major surgery and I spent months recuperating at home. I spent my time doing three things for the most part- listening to my music, watching James Bond movies, and sleeping th... | |
| what cables for Krell 300i and Revel M20 suggest I am very pleased with Analysis Plus cabling in my system. I use Solo Crystal oval interconnects and Oval 9 speaker cable. I run a pair of Revel F30's, driven by Pass electronics | |
| Why do McIntosh come with cheap plastic remotes? I've some heavy remotes, some small and light remotes, and had a ridiculously large remote once. None have ever failed. So as far as I am concerned if the remote works well, cheap is fine. The guts are likely all pretty much the same. | |
| Anti static guns I've had my Zerostat since maybe 1985. Still works great. I have the black cap which verifies function but if you've lost it just put your finger on the needle as your pulling and releasing slowly. You'll know if it works! | |
