| What Matters and What is Nonsense The OP strikes me as a jealous windbag with an inflated ego who likes to assert his "superior" knowledge and experience over those who are willing to listen to his rubbish.SB | |
| Beware the audio guru roberjerman,Aczell and Moncrieff? You must be joking and/or delusional.Aczell was a big-time subjectivist until he lost his hearing, went nuts, and tried to cover it up with his new-found allegiance to measurements. Were you even around for the Au... | |
| Beware the audio guru phomchick, I think you're wrong. My wife and I watched the laurel and yanni thing at home on our Panasonic plasma set on our local news channel. I heard yanni at all times, and she heard laurel. Nothing at all to do with "the fidelity of the devic... | |

I've been able to spe... | |

| Phono stage You owe it to yourself to check out the EAR 834P, a tube phono stage that provides plenty of bass slam plus a to-die-for midrange and top end.Cheers, SB | |
| LP Gear (Nevada) Customer Service? I've purchased a couple of cartridges, a stylus, and an SUT from LP Gear over a three year period of time. Never any problems other than the fact that they sometimes take some time to reply to e-mail questions, but not always which is understandab... | |

| TO BE OR NOT TO BE the user of a record clamp I own several warped old (but kinda rare) LP's that are very difficult to replace. I use a lightweight Michell record clamp when listening to these LP's. This clamp, when used correctly, allows me to enjoy them when they were unplayable before usi... | |
