| Great cartridge mate for SME lV arm Thanks everyone. Yes, I was asking about the VTF. I too had read somewhere that 2.6 grams, or more, resulted in superior sound from the cartridge. I did wonder how this increased mass might effect wear on the vinyl as well as possibly resulting in... | |
| Great cartridge mate for SME lV arm JUst wondering. I've read you need a lot of wt to get all the sound out of the XV cartridge. How much wt. is everyone running with their XV-1's? Thanks,David | |
| What is your most beautiful component? Oh yes, pictures are up on my systems page...David | |
| What is your most beautiful component? I love my Bruce Moore Custom M120 mono blocks, but everyone who sees my system goes gaga over the Oracle Delphi MKV turntable. I must confess, it still makes my gape at it too. Not to be forgotten are the humble little Gallo Reference 3 speakers w... | |
| Great cartridge mate for SME lV arm Thanks for the responces. I hadn't considered the Dynavector, bur it sounds like the XV-1s everyones choice for the arm!I'll check it out.Dave | |
| gallo ref3 with the golden ear awards? c-budgee,During the break in period with my Gallos there was indeed a time where the tweeters produced some harsh sounding highs. As my other posts on the Gallos mention, it was at least 200 hours before their sound settled in to the magical stage... | |
| EH 6550's? The EH 6550's are spectacular. Far exceeding what I've heard from Svetlanas, or the Chinese tubes. | |
| Gallo reference /TAS vs Me Just another thought on the IRD's. They are 200wpc into 4 ohms, which is the ohmage of the sub bass input. What this reiterates is how minimally the addition of another amp may effect your listening enjoyment if you have good amps to begin with...... | |
| Gallo reference /TAS vs Me Well, after waiting a couple of months to get my Bruce Moore Custom 120's back, they've finally returned and now have new matched quads of EH 6550's. They sound terrific. Great definition, and bass that sound very satisfying. Still, I had my IRD 1... | |
| Gallo reference /TAS vs Me Mine sound best with the woofers facing out. But really, as stated above, that's all dependant on your room set up.The bad news from Gallo is that it will be at least another three months until the sub amp is available... | |
| EH 6550's? Thanks Wrayray. Jason's actually a member of the BAAS, though I have only been to one meeting and haven't met him. Interesting article. I'll give the EH KT88's a try, if I ever get my amp back. | |
| Gallo reference /TAS vs Me In case anyone had difficulty ordering these, as mentioned above, I notice 3 pair for sale at used prices here on Audiogon. If these are worth their weight at the new price, they're a steal at around $2K used.It's March, has anyone had a recent up... | |
| Tube Testers. Which to buy and where? Mae, any thoughts on the B&K tube testers?Thanks,David | |

| Gallo Ref III Amps/impressions Rives PARC? I haven't heard of this. Any more information Jburidan?Thanks,David |
