Is extremely accurate "VTA" adjustment necessary?

It's funny. I jokingly wondered the same thing to another member in an e-mail and then saw Francisco's post about a half hour later. Eerie.

What's the meaning of "Romy the Cat" ??

Romy the Cat is the moniker of someone who posted often at Audio Asylym (an other places). He was very knowledgable however most of what he wanted to share was his opinion of you and your beliefs - always negative, demeaning, and provocative. Some felt that his demeanor should be tolerated because his knowledge occasionally added something worthwhile. His lack of civility ultimately got him permanently banned.

Romy actually posted a genuinely positive message - once - suggesting that I would benefit by changing to higher quality resistors for cartridge loading. I emailed him to say "thanks" and asked for specific recommendations. Rather to my bewilderment he sent a pointlessly insulting reply with no technical content whatsoever; it was actually rather psychotic. Audiogon banned him just a day or two later.

Rauliruegas,
You've chosen not to respond to my offer to discuss your irrelevant and unfounded criticisms in a more appropriate place. This makes it abundantly clear you were only trolling. I suggest you re-read the previous paragraph and keep it constantly in mind.

Hey Doug, I can help you w/ the resistors issue. Robert Schult (Ridge Street Audio) chose some really *kick ass* NOS resistors for my phonostage. Besides getting the appropriate 75K loading for my modded Groovemaster, there was indeed a lowered noise floor as Robert promised me.

Raoul needs the internal cleansing. Perhaps I'm mistaken and it's really Alzheimer medication what's really needed. The internal cleansing can't hurt, anyway--neither the *girlfriend*...
