Help Picking a turntable
Boy oh boy - have you started a hornets nest with a hundred and one opinions. The Lenco boys will quote Arthur Salvatores article unti lthey are blue in their face.The DD boys likewise with the SP10's - although I reckon the new SL1200 might be th... 
Why do I keep torturing myself with remasters?
When it comes to vinyl avoid remasters. They are digitised analogue, so rather bizarrely you are making ur Anologue rig play digital. A bit like buying a diesel and trying to run it on petrol. Buy them as a last resort. Buy a second hand record - ... 
Do they make a quiet great sounding phono pre amp??
Hi Matt. I waited and waited, and, searched and searched - then I got a Vendetta SCP2a. Old elctrolytic caps damaged my Lavardin IT, but once replaced, and with modern IC's my phono stage search has come to an end. The only phono stage I have come... 
Help with picking the right phono pre for the rest of my system please!
Doh forgot to add - got a Vendetta SCP2a recently - I have stopped my search... 
Help with picking the right phono pre for the rest of my system please!
There is a very good phono stage sold by the people that make Ming Da - it uses the nuvista tube (like Musical Fidelity) I thought it sounded great at the High End hifi show in Windsor. Can I also add that Soundfoundations in the UK make a superb ... 
R.I.P. David Bowie
He truly was a soaring brilliant star. He had it all - talent, charisma, charm, humility, humour, gorgeous wife etc etc. I am so glad that he had made such a long, varied and thrilling contribution to the world of art. I listened to Young American...

IMHO if its tubes you like check out the TRON Seven - in fact one on sale on this website somewhere. Very musical and neutral at the same time - really captures musical flow. The EAR phono stages are very good too - they are exceptionally musical ...

The problem with Audiophiles, just like all consumers, we want more for less. As a result electronics are made in China - then everyone moans that only the UBER High End components are made in the US or UK. Shame consumers didn't support affordabl... 
Turntable for life
Whilst I do not own one, I get the impression that LP12 owners tend to hold onto their decks the longest, not only that but one never sees Voyd Reference (3 motor version) ever up for sale. 
Digitally remastered vinyl record? Seriously?
That is interesting. I guess I have never heard top quality cassettes - that's all. I am merely asking out of curiosity than criticism. What cassette deck would you go for? 
why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable
Hey Mitch - you probably have some point here - I think that .is 'across the board' of an manufacturing industry or process. If you read an issue of HiFi Critic Martin Colloms is very honest insofar as he will say a previous model is better than t... 
why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable
Can I just say something here. There is a DIY audio/audiophile obsession with equipment, cables in particular, being a rip off which people can make in their garage far better. As aforementioned cables from JPS, Nordost, Taralabs and several other... 
Phono cable question
I think that Nordost tonearm cables have shielding suited to the low level signal 
Looking for really fine cables at really low price
I think that Hitachi manufacture a lot of cables used in hifi
