| Cartridges I only have 1 expensive record. It is Steely Dan Aja (Cisco) and came from discogs. They were asking 850 for an unopened copy, but I got a used copy, I think they labeled it mint with near mint cover, for 400. I really did it as an experiment to s... | |
| Cartridges I really appreciate all you guy’s thoughts! Very helpful for me. I admit, my system probably does not warrant a 12k cart based on the cost of the other components. It would be the most expensive piece. But, right or wrong, I’ve heard that it shoul... | |
| Cartridges Have heard stellar reviews | |
| Cartridges Solypsa I have a Transfiguration Axia now and yes, thinking about going to a top end Grado Epoch 3 or maybe something a little less. I know the Grado is a MI and not MC like the Axia but, have ready stellar reviews. | |

| The Best Speakers in the World! Jeffseight I too bought a pair of 901s in1976. They were series 2 and I thought at the time they sounded fantastic. I remember them having a small box, some type of equalizer, that was necessary to make them work. I wondered if the smaller 601s h... | |
| Good Ethernet switch Thanks to everyone for your replies! Probably best to wait and get the Phoenix. I’m about to get a really good phono set that will press the issue for the network switch. | |
| How do I get the best soundstage? No, I have not experienced an excellent soundstage yet. I bought the Voltis at Greg’s place in Tennessee last year in March and we went over his placement recommendations at that time. He had a much bigger room though and was using really an infer... | |
| How do I get the best soundstage? lak the speakers are Volti Razz; interconnects are less loss xlr ($950); speaker cables are Audioquest Granite (pretty old but sound decent) | |
| How do I get the best soundstage? lewm I can’t say that I am totally satisfied with the soundstage but, I’m not sure whether the culprit is the Voltis themselves, the room treatment or speaker placement. I have experimented with placement but not to the inth degree nor with an exp... | |
| How do I get the best soundstage? Oh and yes yeti42, I am really enjoying the Voltis now. They are the entry level Razz. I had to really work to get the bass output ie with upgraded DAC, reclocker and cables. Each incremental upgrade helped and the less loss cables really did fini... | |
| How do I get the best soundstage? Thanks to everyone for taking the time to write some really helpful info! Cheers | |
| Looking for a SS integrated Amplifier recommendation going into a new system I recently put together a system using Pass INT 60 and really love it. It has 30 w/ch pure class A and another 30 class A/B. More than enough power to drive my Volti Razz speakers. New the INT 60 is 9,000 but used ones can be found on the used mar... | |
| Innuos Zenith MK3 It may be the DAC. I would try to get my hands on a different DAC and see if it still skips. Do you have a local buddy who has one to lend you? | |
| DAC That Punches Above Its Price Point CalvinandhobbesThat is the kind of comparison info that is most helpful. Thanks for taking the time! I was curious though whether or not you used a re-clocker with any of those DACs. Did you? I tried a couple of DACs and the one that came highly r... |
