| Help all ye Triplanar Gurus The phone is always the best method for service issues because you never really know if e-mail makes it. Tri's integrity wasn't questioned (but now the whole ISP excuse makes one wonder). I challenged the supposition that cottage industry vendors ... | |
| Help all ye Triplanar Gurus I agree with you Sunnyboy, after spending dough like that on a tonearm it seems reasonable to expect a reply to your question within two weeks. Cottage manufacturer or not, there is an ethical responsibility to stand behind what you sell or at lea... | |
| Benz Glider High Output good upgrade from Aurum Be I owned the previous version of the Glider HOMC and the Clearaudio Maestro. Both are very nice carts and worked very well with the phono stage in my VAC integrated. The Maestro to me excellent high end extension and resolution over the Glider. I t... | |
| Best way to sell 50 rock albums Just save yourself the hassle and bring them to your local used record dealer and see what you can get. It won't be much money but it will be easy. | |
| When has a piece of equipment paid for itself?? When you listen to equipment and you get thinking about how much you paid it makes you smile. | |
| Life without a remote Well the last couple of days I have been experimenting to find exactly what life would be without a remote. It was more difficult at first as I would automatically turn for the remote much more often than I realized. After I got used to not having... | |
| Life without a remote Thanks for all your responses. As in many cases here on audiogon there are many pro and con opinions and it is difficult to discern to which side to lean. I guess if you believe that the sonic improvement outweighs the get off the couch cost it is... | |
| BAT, ARC, VAC, Shindo? Lokie, I do have a sub for HT but there is no need for it as far as 2 channel goes - The silverbacks and the VAC can gut it out without a problem on the SPL. I am more concerned dropping from 80W down to 25W if there will still be enough drive. Ev... | |
| BAT, ARC, VAC, Shindo? Thanks for your responses. TVAD - you may be right as I do really like the VAC integrated now. I have no idea why I'm looking - some sort of genetic issue I guess.WRP - my main concern with the Shindo besides the remote is having enough power, it ... | |
| High end Audio for ladies? Check this out I want to meet pookie10 - the concepts presented above seems to suggest a purely mythical being which if she did exist would be almost impossible for mere human audiophiles to deal with. Bigfoot, Loch Ness Monster, aliens, and pookie10 - do they R... | |
| Tube Integrated in Home Theater? Take a look at my system as I have done almost exactly what you are attempting right on down to the VAC Avatar Super which I originally used with VSA-4JR. You should not encounter any problems with the set-up you are anticipating. I have/had plent... | |
| sweetest sounding ss integrated OMG, is that you Warrenh or did someone hijack your account? Twoleftears, your friend will have to do more work with that system besides finding an amp if the goal is to get euphonic. He might as well start from scratch if he is pitching the tube ... | |
| Clearaudio Satisfy lift sticking Rosedanny, glad you got it to work. Mine works most of the time but every now and again it sticks. It sounds like this may be a common issue with this arm. Easy to live with though, just a light pressure on the lift and it will ease the cart into ... | |
| Clearaudio Satisfy lift sticking This is what I got from musical surroundigs when I had same issue. "Sometimes the lubricant inside of the cueing assembly hardens due to temperature swings (for example in shipping) and this causes the cueing assembly to get "sticky." We suggest l... | |
