Plinius amp repair in Michigan
Hi ihcho,I bought a used SA103 here on Audiogon a few years ago. It arrived with a noisy right channel, so I contacted the Plinius importer for repairs, who put me in touch with Vince. Vince told me about the suite of mods he had developed over ye... 
Mounting a Triplanar or similar on an SP10
Thanks.  
Plinius amp repair in Michigan
Ralph Abramo has taken over for Vince as the Plinius warranty tech. He bought Galbo Designs and does the Galbo mods. The two are old friends. I can attest from the mods he did on my SA103 that Ralph does excellent work. https://www.pliniusrepairs.... 
Mounting a Triplanar or similar on an SP10
Well, I’ve possibly answered my own question. Here’s an example of a successful mounting, near the bottom of the page:https://www.vinylengine.com/turntable_forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=60342So, it apparently can be done, though whether on an Aco... 
Mounting a Triplanar or similar on an SP10
mikelakers, I’ve actually been emailing with Lee at Acoustand for the past several days as we try to determine whether his plinth will handle a Triplanar. He has never made an armboard for this arm.  
Mounting a Triplanar or similar on an SP10
@lewm,Exhuming an old thread: did you ever succeed in mounting your Triplanar to the SP10? With the new SP10R coming to market, I'm weighing the possibility of making the move and having a plinth made for it. That is, if it will accommodate my Tri... 
Joseph Audio dealers
I believe Jeff Whitlock at A/V Solutions in Pleasanton, CA deals Joseph. He's a good guy. 
How much isopropanol is effective but safe for viny?
Same as Lewm. Safeway sells 99%. I'm sure East Coast grocers do, too. 
Rebuilt A90 or new Windfield Ti?
Thanks for the responses, guys. @nandric : Actually, I had this A90 retipped by Soundsmith a year ago and he did fine job, attaching a new Replicant 100 stylus to the old cantilever at a cost of $450, IIRC. Before that, some four years ago, I had ... 
Upgrade tonearm for Lenco L75 turntable jean natais plinth to perhaps a Durand Kairos ?
For ease of installation, I’d recommend a Triplanar VII. I use one on my Nantais Ref II Lenco and find it a good match. Effective length is 250mm; pivot-to-spindal is 233.4mm. Being a surface-mount, it requires only three screw holes to affix it t... 
Cartridge Loading- Low output M/C
While rules of thumb often get hit with a hammer, I’ll offer two that work for me:1. Start loading at 25 x DCR (or internal resistance, 5 ohms for the Bronze), then raise or lower (usually lower) to taste.2. Always listen to almarg.Best,Bill 
what is the best Kt88 to get
What amp do you have? KT88s can sound different depending on the amps design. I found Gold Lion KT88 to sound very good in my Primaluna Dialogue Premium versus other KT88s. The worst was Preferred Series from the Tube Store. This doesn’t mean the... 
Allnic H-3000 hum when mute button engaged.
dangcaonguyen OP87 posts04-29-2018 5:38pmI am on the west coast, Southern California. Late to this thread. Glad you figured it out. For future reference, Roger Modjeski of Music Reference is authorized to work on Allnic gear. He’s up here in th... 
I need a good arm to mate with a modified Lenco L75
The Graham is my favorite overall, but I keep it mounted on a Brinkmann Oasis in the same system. The Triplanar is second, then the SME (which is an excellent value, IMO). 
I need a good arm to mate with a modified Lenco L75
I have an SME M2-12R and Triplanar VII on my Nantais Ref II. Both sound terrific. I’ve mounted Graham Phantom Supreme on there, too, and that was also excellent. Like others have said above, if the table is modded to realize much of its potential,...
