Considering Revising My Tonearms. Input On This Option Considered

Involving, that’s my criteria. Less involving, goodbye. If it (ANYTHING) immediately gives a sound that alters your prior preferred sound, returrn it, sell it, give it away! Don’t try to get used to it. Don’t try this or that cable to fix somethi...

a few thoughts 1. those albums (vinyl or cd) where the order of the songs is different than the printed order? who made those decisions? 2. cd's. I sometimes use scramble, and found I became focused on songs that I was not fully aware of, strang...
