| Rega hum All RCAs were tight - no lamp on nearby but I do have a ceiling light that is on a dimmer switch. Light was not on though during play. By internal ground I mean that is the way the Regas are designed. There is an internal ground wire within the to... | |
| Rega hum No, not added recently (8 yrs ago it was added). I have had the TT now for 1 yr and this was this first issue (other than location issue when firt purchased) I have had with hum. I am looking for a dead silent background. Hum does not occur with a... | |
| Your Favorate JBL's from the 70's On my way back to school after Xmas break I stopped at a local stereo store in St. Louis. I walked out with a pair of JBL Century L100s. I spend half of my disposable income for the semester on those speakers - best $$ I spebt during college. | |
| How do YOU set VTF on your Rega arm?? Does this spring exist on teh RB-700 arm (on the P5)? I don't recall setting the VTF via a spring on this arm (in the manual). I did have my dealer set up my P5. Thanks for the guidance/suggestion for this newb. | |
| How do YOU set VTF on your Rega arm?? I have a P5 with an RB700 arm. I am confused about the spring loaded adjustment for VTF on the RB300, which I am not familar with. Can you please explain the use of this adjustment on the RB300. | |
| Name a couple of HOLY GRAIL LPs Dire Straits "Borthers in Arm" Stan Ricker half-speed master. Elegant sounding. | |
| Opinion: Best turntable under $2000? Stereophile's 2005 Analogue Product of the Year - Rega P5 with the optional TT PSU and a mounted Exact cartridge. New can be had for $1600. | |
| Samsung TV quality Whatever your brother does steer him away from Mitsubishi - bad quality and terrible customer support. I know personally. No time for details. | |
| Does Rotel RCD 1072 Sound Better than RCC 1055 Plango, My same resullts when demoing at the dealer using Classe amp & pre and Straightwire crescendo ICs. I chose the 1055 for the same reason - random playing of the 5 discs and programability. | |
| Remastered "Born to Run" on vinyl? Bruce's best in my opinion. On his tour in 1978 I saw him play in St. Louis at the Kiel Opera House on a Thanksgiving night - a 4.5 hr show. I was worn out following his show but man could this band rock - tight, crisp and full of energy. Bruce, M... | |
| Will an RCM make the Rice Krispies go away? I don't have a RCM but I do use an Orbitrac for everyday cleaning. I have a used version of Steely Dan's "Katy Lied" that when played was noisier than I like. I gave it a good scrubbing with a MoFi brush and my DIY solution (4 parts distilled wate... | |
| Who is Michael Fremers' I could not believe that person actually sent his $6500 catridge to MF to review because MF could not get one from the manufactuer. I, too, would have been hesitant to unpack, mount, set-up that cartridge. That was interesting reading. | |
| best "entry level" audiophile TT? I listened for months to various tables and ended up choosing the Rega P5 with the TT PSU and an Exact2 cartridge. For my price-point I could not find one that sounded better. Plus the fact that Stereophile chose this table as the analogue product... | |

| What Class D amp for B&W speakers I currently am running a B&W N804, ASW800 sub with a Rotel RB-1092 amp (ICEpower) and RC-1090 pre - SSSSSWWWWWEEEEEEETTTTTTTT! I was previously using a Rotel RC-1070 pre and RB-1070 amp and i thought that combo was good until I stepped up to m... |
