| Tonearm for rega Planar 3 According to Rega, the RB301 is an improved 300, but I don't think they sell it separately from the P3-24. There's no difference between a Moth and an OEM Rega. Rega supplies their arms to a number of manufacturers and allows them to put their na... | |
| Quicksilver Mid Monos vs AES Sixpacs I owned the Mid Monos for a while and found them to be very smooth and sweet. I was using KT88s. I would have kept them but my speakers needed more power. The Sixpacs have more versatility with triode mode. That would interest me if I were in your... | |

| Which version of iTunes is best? There's absolutely no sound difference between versions of iTunes. Sometimes the updates will have new features, but usually they address bug fixes, security updates, and DRM changes. | |
| best cartridge for my system Keep your Rega cartridge. If vinyl is your passion, a Bottlehead Seduction should be on your shopping list. Phono peamps play a more important role than you'd think. The Seduction is a well regarded tube design that will add a midrange realism, se... | |

| Looking for guidance with older VPI HW-19 tables Mark and Frogman, thank you for the detailed info! I really appreciate your replies. How does the Scout compare to the MKIV? Is the JMW-9 arm equal to, better than, or inferior to the Hadcock GH228? Buying a table that's ready to go out of the box... | |
| Not getting enough volume with my new MM cartridge For what it's worth, the P5 tonearm is an RB700. | |
| Looking for guidance with older VPI HW-19 tables If you had a choice to mount a Hadcock GH228 on a VPI HW-19 MKIV with heavy TNT platter OR a Scheu Eurolab Premier, which would you choose? The Scheu is a little more expensive than the MKIV. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. | |
| Not getting enough volume with my new MM cartridge Rick, if the cartridge is indeed defective, you'll have to work with the vendor you bought it from. Depending on their warranty and return policy, you might not be able to switch to a different cartridge. The Exact is supposed to be very good, but... | |
| What cartridges under $800 outperform DL-103R? I'm having trouble with one of my amps, so a report is going to take longer than I hoped. | |
| looking for interconnect under 200 dollars Cables aren't going to create a nice soundstage with tight bass and decent midrangeSpeakers, amp, preamp, and source create this. Anyone who tells you that cables will magically transform your system is smoking crack. I haven't heard any *dramatic... | |
| Phono pre amp It's worth experimenting with this, but I'll bet anything you'll be missing some midbass and low end. In this situation, you're essentially running your phono stage as a passive preamp. Even if you ideally match the output impedance of your phono ... | |
| Not getting enough volume with my new MM cartridge This doesn't make sense. The Exact has an output of 6.8-7.2mV which is one of the highest I've heard of. As others have suggested, double check the wiring. Follow Rega's guide: http://www.rega.co.uk/downloads/Exact.pdfHave you done any troubleshoo... | |
| Overhang for Ortofon 2M Bronze on Rega RB301 Bob, bite the bullet and get a Mint Tractor. Not only will you hear a difference, but you'll be able to put the issue to rest and know it's done correctly. |
