| VPI Super Platter Contact VPI. Harry has a new lubricant. It looks like petroleum jelly, but he assures me its not. It did make positive changes in my Superscoutmaster | |
| Tube Tuners I'm using a Fanfare FT1-A. I'm very happy with it. | |
| Turntable advise for an analog novice I disagree with Williwanka. If I had the worst system in the world, amy upgrade would be noticeable. The final sound out of the speakers is the sum total of the whole system. | |
| rega planar 3 cart replacement... I absolutely agree wth Jalance2069. I have an Expressimo VTA adjuster. The adjustment is infinite for the task - with the spacers you have only its setting. | |
| Considering going Vinyl--Please talk me out of it I have an Ayre C-5xe which plays all silver discs. Let me tell you that DVD-A and/or SACD is very close to regular CD sound...sometimes not even as good. If the potential is there, I haven't found it. Vinyl overall is the best method to get the hi... | |
| Considering going Vinyl--Please talk me out of it No Bucketjr...CD's sound very good indeed. Comparing my Ayre C5xe to my Superscoutmaster/10.5i/Benz Ebony LP, the CD sounds like there is a scrim in font of the performance. The difference is like regular tv to hi def | |

| Considering going Vinyl--Please talk me out of it Nope - Its a lot of fun... Not only do I like the quality of sound, but I really grove on my Rube Goldfarb looking VPI Superscoutmaster with all the wheels and pulleys. :) | |
| Signal vs. Audio Art vs. Speltz Anti? Need help... Oh my - someone said that anti-cables are weak in the bass?? With my Vandersteen 5A's they literally shake the house with organ, bass drum, etc. | |
| Unplugging / replugging Anti Cables Changes things I have to agree with Muralmann1. I never had a problem with my Anti-Cables. As a matter of fact, I compared them with Purist Anniversary, Kimber Select, Audioquest Sky, etc. and in my system only Audioquest was similar (although the price differen... | |
| best cartridge for 60,70's classic rock, folk .... Any Benz. You will be happy with any of the recommended cartridges on these posts, but if you are critical, you must listen for youself. | |
| Is RIAA equalisation enough for Phono Stages? I remember om the old days, Scott, Fisher, McIntosh all had various rolloff configurations. I remember RIAA, AES, FFRR and other indications you can point your control to. | |
| New update for VPI tables Good for Harry - He's always trying to make his products better. In truth, they are some of the very best you can buy. Upgrades are all optional and retrofittabke, I personally commend him for his expertise in making the product even better. ...th... | |
