| Why so many Plinius for sale lately Probably the one important weakness of Plinius amps is its high frequency extension which is relatively rolled off/muted, so you do not really hear the crispy sparkly sound of live instruments. | |
| How good is the Obsidian plinth of Technics SP10 ? Chakster, I have been through your thread. Thanks for pointing out anyway.I am not really a fan of 12" tonearms so it is not a priority for me.

| Input sensitivity, Gain and Preamp matching Thank Al and Atmasphere. Yes, I am darn serious about keeping the speakers and your suggestion about getting more powerful amps is well taken. My hunt is on. And thanks everyone for the caution about matching passive preamp with the low sensitive ... | |
| Basis Vector cartridge recommendations Jmcgrogan2, unless you are fixated at the particular models you have mentioned, check out the Audio Technica ART9. It is their reference model. In my system it bested some of the best cartridges out there, especially the Miyabi 47, Miyabi Standard... |
