| Micro Seiki BL-51 and Which Tone Arm? You won't have any problem mounting an MA 505 on a BL-51. The manuals at Vinyl Engine shed light on the situation: Micro MA-707 pivot to spindle: 222 mm (effective length - overhang)Micro MA-505 pivot to spindle: 222 mmInfinity Black Widow pivot t... | |
| Grado Sonata Cartridge marked RP? My Sonata is marked with RS on the top. The Platinum and Sonata look almost identical. Why don't you contact Grado and ask? Who did you buy it from? | |
| Hadcock GH228 and Shelter 501 - do they mate well? Thanks Marty. Bill emailed me privately and said he didn't think it was a good match. I found the effective mass for the GH228 in an old forum. It's 9.1 grams. It's a shame the manufacturer doesn't provide this info. Doing the math, the resonance ... | |
| which bang for the buck DAC? FYI, the Paradisea doesn't have XLR out, but you could use RCA to XLR cables. | |
| which bang for the buck DAC? There's a lot of buzz about the PS Audio D Link III, but I haven't heard it. I will say the Paradisea is extremely smooth and pleasant to listen to. I've owned mine for a couple of years and haven't had an urge to upgrade. | |
| “Real” bass vs. “Boom” — how do you know which? you will hear more of the music if you get the bass right (even if it is not as impressive) because too much bass will mask higher frequencies such as the lower midrange and prevent you from maximizing the musical enjoyment.Shadorne (System | Revi... | |
| Tonearm for rega Planar 3 Come on guys. Enough. Let's get back to Skipper320. Personally, I wouldn't consider the 3 point mounting design of the RB251 an important consideration. I doubt you'll hear any difference between a 251 and a 250. I see an RB250 with a Michell Tecn... | |
| Rega P3-24 or RB301 anti-skating bias I don't think this is unusual. I experienced the same thing with an RB300. With antiskate set to 0 and tracking set to 0, the arm slowly drifted back to the arm rest. The antiskate mechanism is magnetic which might explain why it exerts a force ev... | |
| Tonearm for rega Planar 3 Skipper320, what's your budget for the tonearm? | |
| Tonearm for rega Planar 3 According to Rega, the RB301 is an improved 300, but I don't think they sell it separately from the P3-24. There's no difference between a Moth and an OEM Rega. Rega supplies their arms to a number of manufacturers and allows them to put their na... | |
| Quicksilver Mid Monos vs AES Sixpacs I owned the Mid Monos for a while and found them to be very smooth and sweet. I was using KT88s. I would have kept them but my speakers needed more power. The Sixpacs have more versatility with triode mode. That would interest me if I were in your... | |

| Which version of iTunes is best? There's absolutely no sound difference between versions of iTunes. Sometimes the updates will have new features, but usually they address bug fixes, security updates, and DRM changes. | |
| best cartridge for my system Keep your Rega cartridge. If vinyl is your passion, a Bottlehead Seduction should be on your shopping list. Phono peamps play a more important role than you'd think. The Seduction is a well regarded tube design that will add a midrange realism, se... | |
| alon II Mark II I don't know what Carl charges for Alnico drivers, but it won't be cheap. An alternative is to have your woofers rebuilt by Bill LeGall at Millersound: http://www.millersound.net/about.htmmillerspkr@aol.com1.215.412.7700He's a master at this. I've... |
