| Cable repair question Check with moon-audio.com. They did a great job on speaker cable retermination for me. I recently puchased a Silver Dragon tonearm cable and their workmanship is excellent. | |
| Turntable speed accuracy I have checked my VOM with the Rives test CD and it reads +_ 1 hz at frequescies from 1000 to 3150 hz, so I think I will buy the Ultimate Analog Test LP to cross-check my strobe disk. I also happen to have an old dual trace scope, so I should also... | |
| Oppo BDP-95 Be careful to go into the Oppo menu and lower the gain when you switch to variable volume control BEFORE you connect it directly to your amps! I prefered my preamp volume control, but it is easy to try to see which you prefer. If your present prea... | |

| BAT vk-p3 phono install I will try to send you a PM tomorrow. | |
| BAT vk-p3 phono install I did this on a VK-30. the tricky part is cutting or removing some "0 ohm resitors". I had to buy my board through a dealer within the state, who determined I was capable to do install it myself. Maybe you could get a local dealer to do the instal... | |
| Are all external hard drives the same? Since I backup the music files on my PC anyway, I use the USB external drive hooked to the USB input on my BDP-95. I presume the hard drive is controlled by the OPPO. Does this make it effectivly asynchronus? If not, what is it called? Can someone... | |

| Moving magnet hum Thanks for the replies. I went ahead and removed the ground tab from the green (right ground) pin, and it solved the problem. It seems this tab was causing a ground loop with the well grounded tonearm. No SUT was used for the LOMCs as the Aleph ON... | |
| Ultra High Definition 32-Bit Master? I bought a sampler SACD distributed by GrooveNote (GRV1013), and the cuts by FIM are outstanding! | |
| What is the best power cord for pass labs xa100.5? Be careful with aftermarket power cords on Pass amps. On my Aleph 0s the iec female is inside of 10mm of milled steel. The heavy gauge stock power cord fits perfectly. No after marker connection I have tried fits correctly into this deep recess. I... | |

| Rabco SL-8E Tone Arm Everything still works, the lateral servo with chain drive, the lift/lower motor, rca to cartridge clip continuity etc. As I remember, it should not be used with a low output, low compliance moving coil, due to the low tonearm mass and servo servo... | |
| Rabco SL-8E Tone Arm I have a complete Rabco SL-8E, not used in 25 years, in the original box, with all literature including mounting template. I had used it with a Thorens TD 125. When I swithed to Oracle, I never tried to mount it. If you are interested, contact me ... |
