| Origin Live Tonearms @noromance In a free market economy that pretty much amounts to anything. I'm getting the impression that the Silver is cheaply made, that the bearings are like those in the older SME tonearms? That the arm tube possibly resonates? Regardless the... | |
| Origin Live Tonearms @noromance I can see where the extra $300.00 might be justified by getting an arm with better bearings. Better arm material would be a plus but not sure if it’s as important. | |
| The best plug in filter ever! @antigrunge2 I believe there’s something to say about the fact that Akiko has been able to stay in business for such a long time. Not sure if that’s due to the cost and effectiveness of their products or if it says more about their savvy business... | |

| The best plug in filter ever! @antigrunge2 I’ve had the same experience by trying certain plugs in a variety of places. For example, I have two XLR inputs on my DAC and by plugging an XLR Tuning Stick into the right channel, it renders a more forward presence while plugging it... | |

| The best plug in filter ever! @verafiaudio all-right, thanks! | |
| The best plug in filter ever! Wonder whether Puron will develop a power strip? Anyway, I’m interested in trying one of these, how do I place an order? Sorry ordering isn’t clear to me from reading through this thread. Thanks! | |
| The best plug in filter ever! @lowrider57 Akiko makes tuning sticks with RCA’s, XLR, and prongs for outlets. They also make sticks that attach to cables. Here’s the website; https://www.akikoaudio.com/en/ | |
| The best plug in filter ever! Sorry, late to the discussion. I started using Akiko Audio ten or so years back and have been happy with the difference they make. I saw on the Akiko website that a new, copper colored triple enhancer was introduced. Apparently this new filter is ... | |
| Help me understand cartridge alignment If my alignment measurements were off, then I would feel compromised unless I could make the adjustments necessary. Anyway, there is an art to setting up a cartridge and there is a science too but nothing is so exact that you cannot make evaluatio... | |
