| Which would you buy? I did buy the Sony E9000ES, but admit that did not make the comparison against the Muse 9. I have no idea how they compare. I am totally satisfied with my Sony. It has the best picture quality from DVD that I have experineced to date, and the SACD... | |
| Pros and Cons of Platter Mass Fatparrot, does it include a guide to the galaxy? | |
| Pros and Cons of Platter Mass Jameswei is correct, his answer is absolutely in accord with my own experience, and I have owned perhaps fifteen turntables . My current table utilizes a 70 pound platter and must be push started, even though it is air bearing. No doubt it is the ... | |
| Reynaud's Evolution 3 speaker.---Rave or Rag It ? Great answer Chris. I have heard several reliable sources rave about the Reynauds. Would love to be able to audition a pair some day. | |

| Linear tracking vs. Pivoted tracking tone arms. Djnorth, Nice web site, great images of the Airtangent.Glad I included it in my list since you (seem) to be connected to the company. The Airtanget 10B is one of the linear track arms I was referring to, among the six I have owned. A truly beautif... | |
| Anybody willing to admit? It would be difficult to choose more than a couple of hundred LP's to discard from my collection. This from what is probably near 6000, not counting CD's. I purged and binged this collection over many years, buying things that amused me when I had... | |

| Phono cable for 100? The Micro Seiki is probably a DIN connector at the tonearm with RCA type at the electronics. Try buying a "stock" modern cable, perhaps from someone who had upgraded to a ultra high end aftermarket cord.One of todays modern tonearm cables from a h... | |
| Best way to organize 6000 albums? I have at least that many albums, and all are stored with spines facing out, like books. In fact, they are all stored in a large book case that I designed and had built into my wall.The cost of a bookcase is low compared to hi fi furniture, and pr... | |
| How important is precise VTA adjustment? Much of what you say is true. The washers certainly are an inaccurate way to adjust VTA. VTA is more or less critical, depending on the quality of the cartridge and your associated equipment ( how much it lets you hear the change ). If you had a t... | |
| What Liquid in PAD interconnects? Perhaps I missed something? You got the Purist cables for a good price and are now concerned with paying $25.00 to have the factory check them out, repair them and replace the fluid?That sounds like a good price and a solid investment to me. | |
| Can you top this ? Lugnut, haven't you seen people do the same thing to an automobile? Still, It is a shame for someone to ruin a nice player like the Linn LP12. Perhaps you should let him hear your player so he knows he has been taken advantage of. | |
| Audio Artistry Beethoven - anybody has heard? I listed the Beethoven when I replied to the old Audiogon topic: Top Ten Speakers of All Time? I feel the same way now, and although am a huge Soundlab fan, the Audio Artistry Beethoven is the first box speaker I auditioned that has the magic of a... | |
