| SME 20/3 or Oracle Delphi VI or Garrard 301 First off....thanks for all the comments.Of course I would love to listen to them but I live on Maui (yeh I know, it's a sad story!) and there's simply no way to audition anything in my system. There isn't a decent high end retailer in Hawaii let ... | |
| SME 20/3 or Oracle Delphi VI or Garrard 301 So...now the question is...20/3 or 20/12?Almost twice the price.That extra dough could go towards a Graham Phantom and very nice cartridge.So for about the same money I could either have a 20/12 with 312S arm or 20/3 with Graham and extra wand for... | |
| SME 20/3 or Oracle Delphi VI or Garrard 301 Dover...you are correct.just got done emailing a UK dealer who will rewire it for me and tells me at that point I will have a very fine arm indeed.I believe I am very close to deciding on the 20/3 for now.The dealer suggests the 20/12 is audibly b... | |

| SME 20/3 or Oracle Delphi VI or Garrard 301 Mahalo Syntax.Do you know when they changed the bearing in the IV?I purchased mine about 4 years ago.Aloha! | |
| SME 20/3 or Oracle Delphi VI or Garrard 301 Many mahalos Syntax.You have summed up my impressions from countless hours of research and questions on various fora.While everyone has a different ear, perspective, system, environment musical taste etc etc...I believe a consensus can be arrived ... | |
| SME 20/3 or Oracle Delphi VI or Garrard 301 Mahalo Robert."So folks are saying to put a non SME arm on a SME table? Check to see if they are off their meds."I guess the comments come from those who think the combo is dark and using another arm counters that.Just some say that others not at ... | |
| SME 20/3 or Oracle Delphi VI or Garrard 301 Mahalo Cipherjuris.SP10 eh........interesting.Are there many mods needed to get one of these singing?Did Albert Porter do it all or just the plinth?I have just about talked myself out of the idler drive solution.The rebuilt 301 ends up in 20/3 pri... | |
| Krell CAST cables...which to buy? Flashunlock.many thanks for the input.I am still batting around the way I should go with these wires.You sound very happy with the SR's which I can get for a total $2600 for the 1m and 2m pairs I need. The same setup with MMF's would run me $1600.... | |
| New Lyra Delos Cartridge jcarr.from your post above concerning stylus profile and body construction I get the impression that the Delos is very much a budget cartridge.It and the Dorian are the only ones not using your custom stylus.(I understand that all but the very top... | |
| Krell CAST cables...which to buy? Aloha Flash!Many thanks for the insight.Which cable did SR use to make your CASTs?And if you don't mind me asking, how much did they cost? | |
| Krell CAST cables...which to buy? They quoted $3000/pair which is still high considering that ISM The One RCA retails at $2500/pair.Which RSC cable did they quote you for? Not sure I would want a ground station on CAST cable.Considering the whole deal with CAST was simplicity it s... | |
| Krell CAST cables...which to buy? I do know the order is Original Thick, Thin Silver, Nordost MMF.Not sure when the change was made to Thin Silver as I purchased mine late 2006.I have a call into Krell so hope to answer that question soon.Seems like there are quite a few of us won... | |
| Krell CAST cables...which to buy? Cheers...I saw your posts on the subject.I was wondering how the Nordost cables stacked up against those?Reading some conflicting reports.But that's hifi right ;-) | |
