ZYX Airy2-X-SB on Graham 2.2

Larry.It would be very difficult for me to "Lower My Flag",as it will be at HALF MAST for the next month or so,until my table returns to me.Then the re-dialing in of my set-up.Allow me a little leverage to vent some frustration.After all,you had once said that you were the guy in sunny Florida with the big "smile on you face".Understandably so,but I'm stuck in the cold and cannot spin my vinyl,so,I just thought I'd give you a bit of a hard time.By the way.I have a TRANSFIGURATION TEMPER-V (low output)which is really a stunning performer.Do you have any thoughts on why this cart. gets almost no exposure anymore.At 7gms. it's a great match for my 2.2 and my phono stage has plenty of gain for it.Also,since I'm on a caffeine roll,right now,what are your thoughts on phono tubes.I have some low noise Ediswans,but, have read about the White Label Amperex PQ's as being superior.I have a pal who just bought some Tele cc-a's and they were grainy and bright.He switched to Mullard-Gold pins.For the better.I know this is a matter of personal taste,but,I'm intrigued by some of the stuff I've been reading about the White PQ's.

Hey guys, just in case you missed it, Mehran just posted an ad that has pricing all of the ZYX line. Check it out here:

Sirspeedy,
.
You can keep your flag at half-mast until your table is back in your hands and up and running, but you can toss the Red Flag regarding the ZYX pricing.
.
In response to your and my back and forth, Mehran posted all of the list and selling prices on his Audiogon AD (just click on the link that Joe/Jphii listed above).
.
Kurt, I would suggest that you do your room first with some good advice from someone like Rives Audio, and save for a UNIverse....it is the only way to fly. The room is a must to get settled to allow you to make good future decisions on any type of equipment down the road (just my two cents).

Rgds,

Sirspeedy,

Mehran has been trying to email you since you were asking about ZYX pricing, and I have his phone number if you would like to give him a call. Email me offline and I'll send it to you, because I can't get your email to work either.

Joe

Larry,

Point well taken on room acoustics. Unfortunately, the room has a large RPTV between the speakers to accomodate the family's video needs. I cover the TV with blankets when listening which helps. Not perfect but better than a sharp stick in the eye.

Thanks for the advice. Kurt
