| Cartridge upgrade for VPI Scoutmaster The airy 3 comes in both .24mv and .48mv, I am not sure about a .34mv version as mentioned in the original response post. The airy 3 is a very nice cartridge if you have a good matching phono. | |
| question about the "analog sound" I agree with CPK, the most likely culprit if your system can deliver the goods with a different source is your analog set-up. Some carts are better than others for specific attributes, you have the synergy with the phono amp, and the specific twea... | |
| God, why did I try my first LP = upgrade Oh yeah, a good record cleaning system is highly recommended. VPI 16.5 has done the trick for many people for many years. Well worth the investment. | |
| God, why did I try my first LP = upgrade You might not know how to describe the sound but we all know what you mean. Seems like a phono stage is in order so you can get the tt into your main system, and then see how things go from there. It's over now - you got bit. Have fun. | |
| Stand out phono stages I also recently purchased the K&K unit just a few weeks ago and so far I really love it, but I have only been able to try it out on the MM carts that I have (Benz Glider HOMC and Clearaudio Maestro). The whole reason I bought it is for the fle... | |
| Is Acoustic Zen still in business? I didn't even have to read the thread, I knew exactly what was going to be in it. These threads are a pet peeve of mine. Have some patience. | |
| A Newbie's First Week Impressions -- Vinyl Rules Jwong - that is both an incredibly accurate and scary post. | |

| No wonder SACD hasn't caught on I remember the sacd section getting smaller each time I went to look for music at best buy.Vinyl is the answer. | |

| Clearaudio Bluemotion Ihcho, great to hear that you got you TT set-up and are having so much fun with it. Don't let the color bother you, you are supposed to listen with your eyes closed! | |
| Clearaudio Bluemotion Ihcho, you will have a lot of fun. Setting up the turntable isn't too bad but you have to take your time, carefully read the directions, and be dilligent. My experience became a tiny bit frustrating but once I got it done I saw that doing it again... | |
| Clearaudio Bluemotion I bet you could return it and get what you want. It may be worth the hassle in the long run and make you feel better about your purchase. | |
| Stand out phono stages Pedrillo, thanks for the thread and the compilation of phono stages. Did you seperate the categories above based on price alone? | |
| Clearaudio Bluemotion I have a champion with the satisfy arm and it has worked great for me. Adjusting VTA is kind of a hassle but once dialed in it works great. Looks like it might work differently on your table. You will have fun with the bluemotion. Enjoy. |
