| Dr Feikert vs Funk Firm LSD Call Blackbird Audio he use to sell the LSD he might be able to give you some insight. I called him about my Pink Triangle Pink Link power supply. We started talking about the LSD and told me his customers and himself had nothing but trouble with ... | |
| Who Here Makes Their Own Power Cables? I've had good results building my own power cords. Most of my store bought cord were JPS Labs. I use a 8 gauge wire solid core copper, stranded copper and solid core silver depending on sound I'm looking for. Solid core has big bass and more detai... | |
| Thorens TD-165 Agree check cartridge tags. Check table ground wire-spade connection, that wire is usually thin and fragile and sometimes many strands are broken off unnoticed, solder it if can. Table may have ground wire off tonearm bolted to chassis with anothe... | |
| Cartridge Recommendations I don't think you can go wrong with Soundsmith. I find some other cartridges do somethings exceptionally well but lack something in some other area.The best way I can describe the soundsmiths I use they do nothing wrong, and that's very important... | |

| Difference in sound between day and night. Help! I think what your hearing is noise floor dropping at night. Try a passive conditioner, PI Audio's Uber Buss is best bang for buck out there, I think around $1100 new. There hard to find used, they sell really fast and new have 30 day return policy. | |
| Tracking Force? If it was me I would back off 3.8, it has to sound dull with that much over recommended force and can't be good for your cartridge. Your range is 2.0 to 2.4 start at 2.4 since you are use to that much weight. Lighten up til you hear highs to your ... | |
| Jelco TK-850L review noromance, since your already dealing with Brian talk to him about a rewire he's an real honest and good guy, if undecided on rewire you could try replacing tag wires, but what a pain breaking in wire all over again. I don't use it much anymore bu... | |
| Linn LP12/Lingo start-up/speed problems I agree to start with removing cap, spring and ball before doing anything. It will do exactly what you discribe. It's easy to do, just do it slow because spring can through ball and you will be on your hands and knees looking for it like I did. S... | |

| Hihat Question I've had best results dropping noise floor down as much as possible. Routing cables so no crosstalk, but I would invest in a nice passive power conditioner. I've had good luck with Running Springs but they are no longer around. PI Audio Uber Buss ... | |
