| Why so many AQ Hurricane PC's for sale? Why wouldn't a fake AQ power cord sound the same as a "real" one? They are all made in China at the same factory. | |
| Does cover art of an album or recording influences your purchase? Cream’s Disraeli Gears and Wheels Of Fire LP’s had psychedelic art work that was eye-catching! Underground comic artist Rick Griffin did the WOF cover. I bought both albums in 1967-68 as a teen in high school. | |
| Phono Stage - The great analog tragedy How about holding a seance and channelling the Spirit of Harry Pearson - the Pope of Sea Cliff? I am sure Harry would have an opinion of what's a Reference phono stage! | |
| Phono Stage - The great analog tragedy Where is the "Reference" standard for any audio component? Where is the "Governing Body" that sets the standards for component performance? The AES? Do we take a vote? Do we listen to the opinion of some audio guru? | |

| Turntables with tone arm lift at end of play. Empire 698 uses a light sensor to activate the arm lift. I had one. It also came with a low mass arm tube. Empires were the best American belt-drive turntables. They are worth finding and restoring! | |
| Best Turntable Mitsubishi LT-22 or Harman and Kardon ST-7 to Restore I also have the ST-7 Rabco - before HK re-branded it. I think the drive/arm mechanism is better in the LT-22. | |
| Best Turntable Mitsubishi LT-22 or Harman and Kardon ST-7 to Restore Keep and use the LT-22. An excellent linear-tracker! I have one. | |
| Interim SS Amp - Likely Candidates? Fosi V3 with the 48 volt 10 amp power supply - about $110. Why spend thousands for an interim amp? |
