| TUBE or SS? david99, thanks for your comments. i can *assure* you it's the rogue 99 preamp that made the bass go away - it was all there before, & the preamp is the only thing that's changed. since my last post, however, several folks have said that this ... | |

| Are Talon speakers really this great? if these folks have willingly spent their money, and are *still* happy after their purchases, they may be many things, but *sucker* ain't one-o-them. check your dictionary, phill. ewe may not agree w/their taste or their judgments about value for ... | |

| Cartridge for Rega Planar 3 rega's own cartridges are supposed to be a good match for their arms. if the accuphase does lo-output mc's, try the ortofon mc25-fl, or the autio-technica oc9 - $225/$200 at the needle doctor. sumiko blue-point/bluepoint special's are also nice. | |
