| "best" 3.5mm to RCA cable Check out the Zu Mission iPod cable. Retails for $99.00 but offered often (now) on EBay starting at around $30. They also offer a return policy for a risk free trial period. | |
| Benz cartridge line - what is the HOMC sweet spot? I am presently using a Benz Ebony H on an Encounter Mk3c arm. My TT is an OL Aurora mk2. The tone and detail of this cartridge are excellent in my system using the MM input on my Vac preamp. | |
| VPI HW-17 - Questions and Expectations I agree with the insight that Mr. Deacon has shared above. Doug has always been an excellent source of knowledge and experience on vinyl in many forums. A few years ago I purchased a used VPI 16.5 that came with three vacuum wands and three brushe... | |

| Rack/shelf for albums - suggestions please Expidit is a great way to go. Use a little wood glue on both ends of the shelf wood pegs when you assemble the shelf unit and the collapse you see on some Internet pictures will not happen. | |
| 2nd system The 3020 is a great piece (had one from 1989 to 2002). It can be a little soft in the region you describe but usually more laid back than bloated. One issue now could be it's age (if it has not been recently serviced) and the need to update some c... | |
| Cartridges that work best on an OL Encounter MK3C? I have been using an Encounter Mk3c on my OL turntable for the past year. During this time I have used different cartridges on the arm and it performed well with each one (all were of appropriate mass and compliance). I have moved up to and presen... | |
