| Better than the Project Carbon TT for $ 500.00 Let me see if I can quickly address those responses which I appreciate.

| Totem Hawk: Outdated compared to newer spks?? First Mr. Parneer, I am not a great believer that older technology has the sonic charm to possibly sound better than newer speaker technology. On rare occasions, that might be true as several members have qualified. Basically, to me that is an old... | |

| Most enjoyable speaker you heard under $800?? TO: JL35 Acoustic Zen Adagio Monitor Audio RS-6 Silverline Prelude II Green Mountain "Europa" Vandersteen CI Epos 12 or 12i . As much as I like the AZ Adagios, the Silverline Prelude II was possibly the best overall sound, but they take 700 hours... | |
| Why do MM cartridges amplify more surface noise?? For the record, both the Ortofon Blue and AT 120 were recommended for the Rega RB301 tonearm. I was pleasantly surprised at the AT120's sound. Its main limitations were the highs, and the soundstage was nether wide nor deep. AT has a lot of MM's o... | |

| Any comments on Synergistic Research Atmosphere To Alectiong: So what is the verdict regarding the sound quality?? It seems like you were "UNDERWHELMED" if you are already planning to sell them so soon. Did you ever try the Audience SE series of both speaker cable and interconnects?? If so, let... |
