Airtangent vs Kuzma airline

I will have a ATE-2 air tight with lots of cap/resistor upgrades in the signal and power supply for sale soon. Very fair price.
foxkeith@earthlink.net if interested.

I am hearing great things about Shindo preamps which include a built in phono stage. I have never listened to it but a few people I know have been giving their preamps specifically very high compliments. In truth a premap with a built in phono stage will save you money on interconnects and the like.

Hello,
sorry for my bad english,i hope you understand. I will tell something about the Frankfurt Show 2 month ago.
The setup of this four combinations was for a workshop. The people can hear four different tonearm, cartridge and phonostage combinations. It was not set up for a competition. After hearing 2 songs one classic and one jazz, we have a discussion about this. It was very interesting to hear different fealings from the people. It is true, that most of the people incl. me, prefer the SQ, XV1S, Tron combination. This combination has a very good dynamic with deep bass and structure. Relaxed mid and high range with many details. Sometimes you want to catch the music in the air.
There are so many ways to listen to the music and i think you have to find the right one for you.

Dear Rugyboogie: J.Allaerts@pandora.be

Regards and enjoy the music.

I received the Kuzma Airline and finally had the time to set it up. Everything went smoothly. No hickups what so ever. Playing Lp's for almost 8 hrs and having a blast. Very very good, to my ears anyway. I can hardly wait to start learning the ways of vinyl. I bought a Denon 103 for the short term and it sounds amazing. My Dynavector XV-1s shows up next week and I am really looking forward to this.
Will buy the loricraft cleaner and then decide on the phono stage.
Thanks for the great advice from all of you.
