| Zoethecus Vs Audio Point Sistrum Rack i've seen the sistrum racks but never used them. i do own zoethecus. the two brands of racks are so different from one another in construction and approach that i should think them virtually impossible to compare. that is, unless you do as redkiwi... | |
| Rowland 8 Ti hc and Rowland 12 ok, i promised angela i'd do a follow up post, so here goes. i've owned several jrdg amps and pre's. i have a 9- year-old model 8 that's been upgraded to ti status that i still use and love. i've listened to a variety of jeff's relatively new amps... | |
| cartridge suggestions w/ LP12 the ruby2 is a BIG step up from the h2 ( the ruby 2 is what i'm presently running). i didn't mention it, tho, because you seem to have issues with output. | |

| cartridge suggestions w/ LP12 at your price point, i'd recommend the benz micro h2. yes, it has a high enough output (2.5 mV). have fun -kelly | |
| Bent Stylus....what to do? david: your post led me to the grado website. i hadn't known before today that john grado took over the reins of the company from his uncle joseph. i've neither met nor spoken to john grado, but if he's anything like joseph, he must be a true gent... | |
| Power cord upgrade for Rowland 8T i'd love to plug my jrdg 8ti directly into the wall but find it works only when i plug it into an ac oulet. ;~) actually, yes, i do not use a "conditioner/power plant" or such; i do, however have dedicated 20 amp lines with hospital-grade outlets.... | |
| Bent Stylus....what to do? can you not get the grado retipped? or is retipping the same price as a new grado? van den hul advertises its ability to retip economically any cartridge; might give 'em a try. BTW, i believe a bent stylus can damage your lps', depending in what d... | |
| Best active subwoofer for 4 Quad ESL 57 i suggest you look for a muse model 18 (they're no longer made), together with a "personality card" specifically designed for the quads. for the latter you might want to contact kevin halverson at museelectronics.com. i had a couple of muse 18's t... | |
| "Bridging" an amp i suggest you contact the manufacturer of your amp. they're each a little different and many simply can't be bridged. | |
| tall front firing Sub for audio? the wilson whow is actually a down-firing sub. wilson does make a floor-standing upright sub, the xs. it is, however, 84" tall. and quite pricy. | |
| Nordost SPM vs. Quatro Fil just visted the nordost website, which i should have done before posting. nordost uses the spelling "Quattro Fil" for the ic under discussion. guess we were both wrong. | |
| Nordost SPM vs. Quatro Fil i recently visited a friend in rhode island who shares my audio interests. while i was at his home, i participated in his auditioning nordost quatrofil ic's as possible replacements for his spm. he has only a single pair of ic's in his system, run... | |
| Did Marconi invented radio...? eldragon: good to see you back. i'm not quite sure how to respond to your post but i did look up the marconi patent infringement case. for those interested, it may be found at: http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/scripts/getcase.pl?court=us&vol=320&... | |
| Graham 2: Reliability Issues jaica: i've listenened to the graham 2.2 only briefly at ces 2001 and not a/b'd it with the 2.0. i've not seen any technical info on it yet either. the two changes on the 2.2 of which i'm aware are the above-mentioned bearing cap and the counter w... |
