| What's going on with Mobile Fidelity? Isn't MoFi one of the Big Boys? If they are not, I don't know who would be. | |
| Fremer's review of the Anna cartridge Swampwalker, I'm hand-writing "Swampwalker" 100 times as my homework as we speak."Swampwalker, Swampwalker, Swampwalker,..." 97 more to go...:) | |
| Fremer's review of the Anna cartridge Doug and Swapmwalker,Your comments are always welcome so no need to apologize, especially after the thread took a wayward turn anyway. I still believe there's something special about audio that brings out emotional responses like few other subject... | |
| MC Phono Pre Gain I second Roscoeiii's response. With an output of 0.15 mV, you'd need about 67 dB of gain from your phono pre, give or take a few dB depending on the gain of your line pre. That is a lot to ask of the phono stage, and noise does become an issue wit... | |

| Most unusual/mesmerizing female voice. If Sissel's voice is "pure" (whatever that means), so is Celine Dion's and Enya's (and Barbara Streisand's for that matter). I couldn't tell the difference. But she has, or had, a body to die for, that's for sure :) | |
| ...just wondering Auditioned? How would anyone even hear about it? There is no mention of it on the VPI's website (or anywhere else that I know of, for that matter). Is there a secret VPI club where these things are announced? | |
| Most unusual/mesmerizing female voice. Wow, a 3-year-old thread reviewed. A lot of talented names mentioned in the thread, but I feel that the type of voice like Mazzy Star, Hope Sandoval, or Laura Viers are not really unusual anymore. You could also mention Feist, and Tracey Thorn in ... | |
| Fremer's review of the Anna cartridge Onhwy61Actusreus, if there wasn't an issue with faulty components would you be placing an order for an Anna?How is this relevant to the discussion? Who in this thread is placing an order for an Anna? | |
