| How Much Is TOO MUCH for a Analog front End? I suggest that you listen to your dream setup and see if it is something that you are willing to spend the money for. Listen also to things less expensive and things more expensive and make an informed decision. | |
| VTA for arm vs VTA for cartridge You really shouldnt use VTA as a tone control. The idea is to get the best from the cartridge. VTA also changes depth, air, etc. Make it ALL work for you, not just the bass or treble. | |
| Benz Ebony LP loading Hi Mark - if you can't back off your weight any more, you can always add a bit of blutak stuck on the rear weight to make it heavier. | |
| Rega hum Try eliminating the power conditioner. I've never met one that hasn't caused some problem or other | |
| Benz Ebony LP loading ..and yet, The Absolute Sound or Stereophile exclaimed the LP as truely something special and put it in their highest category. I'm going to continue my quest to mke this thing work. I'll report my progress | |
| Aduioquest Sky & Cheetah I must tell you that because I have Vandersteen 5A's, and because Mr.V wires those spkrs with Audioquest silvers, I naturally had Sky and their comparable spkr wires on loan to try. You're not going to believe this, and neither did I. I auditioned... | |

| Benz Ebony LP loading Why a step up transformer?? My preamp is certainly capable..an Ayre K1xe. | |
| Pls Recommend Grado Green vs. Red P-Mount for Me? I would get the best cartridge I could afford. You will always hear a difference - even if your turntable was a Webcor. You have to make the decission if audio quality means anything. | |
| Benz Ebony LP loading Thanks for the information on the LP. Because of you, I am running it now at 47k. The bass and mids are much better, but the highs are much too strident now. I touched base with Ayre the other day who is sending me a few different loads to try. Th... | |
| Pls Recommend Grado Green vs. Red P-Mount for Me? You really shouldn't be afraid of the quality on=line suppliers. AudioAdvisor, MusicDirect, etc. If you just have an occasional need for vinyl, then anything will do. The P-mount requires an adapter (it may come with the cartridge - youd better in... | |
| To damp or not to damp JMW-9 Sig ? Ok - you piqued my interest, and I had nothing to do, so I played around with the damping in my arm. It is the 10.5i that I just installed on my Superscoutmaster which had previously been a 9 Sig. I have a Benz Micro Ebony LP, and discovered that ... | |
