Hello Henry,It'll take me a while to report.I still need to spend some time with the AT to get a good baseline.After I've got a good fix on the AT, I'll switch to the Shure and take a listen with the stock stylus and report back.Then I'll switch t...

OK Halcro,I'll give it a shot ( Shure/Jico).It'll take a few weeks to get it here and going. Once I'm happy with the setup I'll listen and let you know what I think.Thanks for the advice.Cheers,                     Crazy Bill

Hello Halcro,Absolutely nothing, but first a couple of questions if I may.as noted above, I have the AT150MLX on the DP8. I love this combo. While I know it's not optimally set up ( my Mint is on the way ), I could live right here and be happy. It...

Thanks Halcro. That clearly is on the horizon.I've always felt the various Denon's I've had here, and the Koetsu Rosewood, would not be my final resting place. While they are good, with both of them I've always felt something was missing. It's ent...

Hello all,I guess it's time to resurrect this thread and move it in a new direction.My buddy struck again, and the Blackbird has been replaced by an Amazon Grand Referenz. I've got the Moerch ( 12 inch ) DP8 on it.My phonostage is presently a Decw...

Lewm,please feel free to post whatever you desire.As to your other question.I use an AT150MLX on the FR66s from time to time. The headshell is light, being I believe a NOS Supex from the 80's. Combination works just fine.

Hello all,Still here and immensely appreciating everyone's contributions.Please keep them coming.And I do mean everyone. I have learned a lot.On another note,  my buddy struck again.Regardless of how good the FR66s is, he wanted a more modern arm ... 
Closed back headphone recommendation
Thanks czarivey,Appreciate the recommendation, but the K240 is not closed back, so there will be some audible leakage that will probably bother my wife.Plus, and I’m not being snobbish here, but I’m leaning towards the 1K + price arena. I want to ...

OK flieb, you asked for it.My grandfather on my mother's side was Norwegian, and he was a fisherman. During my teenage years he would take me fishing for flounder ( upon which he relied heavily to feed his family ), along the Ct. shore between Wes... 
Tonearm recommendation
Hello ct0517,It's clear from your response, and I'm guessing, of course, that the Ct in your name stands for CT in the good old USA, as I am also from CT and experiencing EXACTLY what you describe in the weather pattern.was -13 this AM when I got ... 
Tonearm recommendation
Thanks Lewm,I absolutely intend to dial in proper azimuth adjustment no matter which tonearm I am using. I only meant I didn’t need the on the fly adjustment of the Reed 3P which Thomas referrred to. Once I set it optimally with the Feickert progr...

Tonearm recommendation
Hello Thomas from Bavaria,Now, we're talking.While I still am leaning towards keeping the FR66s, I will humbly admit that going with something more modern has been calling me, even if it's only to my vanity. The ONLY problem I have with the FR66s ...
