| Best Phono Stage ModWright PH 9.0X | |
| Local pick up only… Just mailed out a phono stage yesterday using UPS. I paid for $2k insurance, was told that they would not be responsible for any damage incurred during transit and the item would have to be lost or stolen or whatever in order to file a claim ! T... | |
| Stylus Cleaning Rituals I use a thin sliver of Magic Eraser and just barely touch the stylus before each side. 15 years on and no problems. The stylus is spotless . I also US clean all albums I play and brush each side off before playing I sent a cartridge in to one ... | |
| Solid State Phono Stages And...I am eagerly awaiting the delivery of his Modwright PH9.0X Looking forward to comparing it to my Herron VTPH-1 MC Plus | |
| Autoformer/Passive Preamp vs. 6SN7 vs. 12AT7 with Class A, Class D, and Tubes I`m using a battery powered Tortuga Audio LDR passive pre and it sounds pretty good I must say. Clarity and definition with a pitch black background. Also has a remote that is very handy. | |

| length of interconnects for passive preamp I use .5 meter Audience Au24 from my phono stage to my Tortuga Audio pre | |

| The Best Preamp is no Preamp? Tortuga Audio....Try one | |
| Cartridge recommendations under $2500 I think the Rega Apheta 3 is one to consider too. Not much out there yet as to reviews on its own, most reviews of it so far are due to the Rega P8/P10 combo. IMO it`s coasting under the radar currently, but that will change once more people hav... | |
| Why I'm not adding a sub to my 2-way monitors for music My Revel F52`s have three 6.5" woofers per side. Currently using a Revel Ultima Sub 15 and two HSU ULS-15 MK2`s all are sealed subs. The F52`s are run full range and the quick 6.5`s seem to work well with the subs. I`m happy that they sound as g... | |
| Would you pay more than 25% of MSRP for a used cartridge? ebm: "Would never get a used cartridge as the 100 hours routine is getting very old" I use a clicker to count sides. Obviously not 100% accurate for actual hours played but it will give me a pretty good idea +- later on | |
| Origin live Cartridge Enabler - a review millercarbon....Did you ever set up the Enabler ? My daughter and son in law have an Origin Live Silver and I`m curious to see if it`s worth putting one on. Steve | |
| Sota Sapphire VI Turntables with Origin Live tonearm The Origin Live Silver tonearm sounded very nice on my heavily modded Rega P5 ! They need break in time to finally settle in. |
