| Looking to sell my LP Collection My suggestion would be to enlist the help of your college kinds. Get them to actually own the process of selling them via e-bay ... researching a reasonable selling price, setting up the ads, packaging and delivery. Then you pay them a % of the pr... | |

| Question For VPI Super Scoutmaster Owners I also upgraded to the new aluminum/ceramic Classic platter and bearing, from an older MK III platter and bearing. Yes, it was a very nice gain in stability and dynamics and smoothness. Can't say how it improves on the all aluminum Classic 3 platt... | |
| Question For VPI Super Scoutmaster Owners Just get the new 3D printed arm wand. No idea on the cost of this upgrade but the sonic difference was just staggering over the original arm wand. | |
| Are there any DACs that can go low? The Theta DAC's always had a very good bottom end to them. Great dynamics too, as you might expect. Probably somewhat due to the higher then normal signal output level (not a consumer product normal 2V, made for professional use). | |
