| Tonearm recommendation Flieb,To answer your question as to how the arm re-wired by Discovery Cable is working out. I honestly could not be happier. It was discovered (no pun intended), that the Lustre had been re-wired by a home DIY'er with poor soldering skills. Big... | |
| Class "A" phono cartridge discussion. The problem with having EMT do the re-tip or any repair, is that you would also get their suspension. That is the weak point in the EMT's design. I believe it is Dom at Northwest Analog that has a 'long life' replacement suspension for the EMT's... | |
| Tonearm recommendation Flieb,A few months back, I had my Lustre 801 arm re-wired by Discovery Cable. Excellent results BTW, but that is besides my point. He asked if I wanted to eliminate the arm plug-in for cables by hard wiring the RCA's into this arm. Because I had... | |
| Tonearm recommendation ct0517, Yes my 30+ years of employment was in the field you have mentioned, but I fail to remember where you dug this information up from? I guess I will just have to blame that lack of recall on 'old age'! (grin) One thing I also failed to ... | |

| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Hiho, Pick up a replacement stylus for a AT 440MLa. I ran that on my TK-5Ea and was surprised at how great that combination was. I liked it even better than my TK-7SU. Regards, | |
| Grace F9 F8 F-9 F-8 Andante F9 F-9 H S Sumiko Pearl Supex Phono Stylus GAS Sleeping Beauty Chakster,I was not ’hired’ by JVC/Victor. My statements were based on ’my’ opinions of what I was hearing. Not based on how much money you can pay me to come up with flashy catch phrases to make sales. Your thoughts about getting feedback from who... | |
| Grace F9 F8 F-9 F-8 Andante F9 F-9 H S Sumiko Pearl Supex Phono Stylus GAS Sleeping Beauty Chakster, Ever hear of something called a PR department? Their a group of people hired by companies to write up catchy phrases like ’’based on case studies’’, or ’’top of the line’’. How about ’’perfect sound forever’’ or ’’ World Class’’. But I ... | |
| Grace F9 F8 F-9 F-8 Andante F9 F-9 H S Sumiko Pearl Supex Phono Stylus GAS Sleeping Beauty Chakster,Not interested. They have been around a long time. Had plenty of time to develop a reputation.. Hasn't happened. End of story!Regards, | |
| Grace F9 F8 F-9 F-8 Andante F9 F-9 H S Sumiko Pearl Supex Phono Stylus GAS Sleeping Beauty Chakster, I would tend to pay more attention to what we think(those that actually listen to these Grace cartridges), than what you ’see’ in spec. sheets. It has been determined (by those that listen), that the two preferred Grace’s are the F-9R an... | |

| Onzow Zero Dust - cleaning the cleaner I actually removed mine for the plastic holder to clean it with dish soap, Once it dried, I replaced it back in the plastic box after it dried. I have done this a coupe of times now. Cleans up quite nice. I disagree with anyone who feels this ... | |
| Advice needed: biwire speaker cables used as single wire speaker cable? Providing that your speaker runs are not something like 50+ feet, then you will experience nothing by improvements in your systems performance.Think of it as doubling the diameter of you speaker wire gauge!Regards, | |

Wire is wire! Only difference between the wire in coils and the wire in amps is the diameter. Same goes f... |
