| Soundsmith Optimized Contour Contact Line Stylus for Rebuild @rauliruegas Something has been bothering me since your first post in this thread. You claim that your Clavis DC has a boron cantilever. It might, but it wouldn’t be a stock Clavis DC. A stock Clavis DC cantilever is fabricated from a ceramic-rein... | |
| Soundsmith Optimized Contour Contact Line Stylus for Rebuild @rauliruegas Did you compare the Clavis DC with a boron cantilever to one with an OCL stylus on a ruby cantilever? | |
| Soundsmith Optimized Contour Contact Line Stylus for Rebuild I appreciate all the comments. I received the information I was hoping for. Thank you. I have heard from Soundsmith.

| Tonearm Suggestions For Technics Sp15 Under 5k @chakster Just because the OP asked about arms doesn’t mean we shouldn't place the use of that device in the context of the implementation.

| Phono stage hum As noted above, the hum is isolated to the Manley, not the other units. Both channels. The most likely common point between the two channels is the power supply in the Manley. It could be a cap in the power supply or a different defective componen... | |
| Cartridge upgrade from Benz Micro Silver Table / arm? Phono stage? | |
| New Amps to match up with PSB T3 speakers I have been using Herron Audio M-1 amps. Very pleased with their performance. My speakers run a minimum of around 3 ohms up to over 16 ohms. I can find no audible signature or issues with the Herron amps. They are very good bottom to top and e... | |
| single driver speakers An easy entry to single driver is available at Madisound. The Markaudio Alpair 7 mounted in a recommended "Pensil" enclosure can provide a peek at the potential of single driver systems. The enclosures are easy to build and inexpensive using 3/4" ... | |
| Does anyone leave their amp and preamp on all the time? My Herron Audio M1 amps are on 24/7 unless I'm away for more than a couple of days. | |
| AT OC9/II vs AT OC9/III dodgealum - Are you still running the ART9? | |
| AT OC9/II vs AT OC9/III tooblue, I spent a long time trying to get the CdC set up. It was consistently too lean. I understand that the later generations of Lyra cartridges were much better.But that's not particular to the question. |
