"Mudcruntch stopped in Tulsa Oklahoma to seek advice from TDTB, and perhaps get some L.A. contacts. Twilley introduced Petty to Leon Russell, who had a Shelter office in town. After arriving in L.A., Petty did his first recording at the Shelter re... 
Cartridge Suggestion Requested
Avanti1960- you have 3 highly  rated carts.No one will have a correct  answer for you. I would just stay in your budget and try more carts. Everyone's perception of performance is different. No one has your exact setup and room conditions. Your ph...

"Would like to have this if it improves on original releases."jafreeman-I see your a digital only listener, so my suggesting you simply look for unmolested early presses won't help. It looks like that system is tough to break away from, once you s...

"Please don’t misinterpret this message but I never cared for Tom Petty’s music. When I first heard him I thought....oh my gosh, here is the next Bob Dylan, but he seemed to veer more toward pop music and I never cared for his sound."falconcrest- ...

The local news is reporting TP is "clinging" to life. Apparently, an official declaration TP is deceased, was premature.Regardless,  it doesn't sound encouraging.

ozzy-I’m in LA, listening to the local R&R station( yeah, I actually listen to radio!) Breaking unofficial news is TP was taken off life support......I hope this is fake newsIts been such a long time, I think my date is wrong when I saw TP. It... 
Primaluna Prologue vs. Dialogue
bornac-the PL distributor@Upscale Audio  will give you solid info to your query.i found  upgrading from the PL Prologue series to the Dialogue Premium well worth the extra expense.Since you mentioned the ARC VSI75, thus thread may be of interest t... 
How important is component “aesthetics” to you?

Dynavector 20x2 vs Audio Technica ART-9.
Maybe if this were a car forum-what handles curves better, Ferrari or  77' Buick Regal?https://images.search.yahoo.com/images/view;_ylt=AwrTcXLzDdFZkf4An.SKnIlQ;_ylu=X3oDMTIzNjNmMnJsBHNlY... 
How important is component “aesthetics” to you?
My listening session would never include staring at speakers that aren't up to snuff in the aesthetics department. I find it offensive to see plastic bits on $5K+speakers  and gear.Speaking of aesthetics, some of those system pics in the gallery a... 
Dynavector 20x2 vs Audio Technica ART-9.
"too polite for harder hitting genres"I guess that could be up for debate also...I listen to many styles and made sure to play my beloved early Zep and Pink Floyd's DSOTM.Being a couple of years back, I recall the difference as hearing subtle pass... 
Dynavector 20x2 vs Audio Technica ART-9.
Everyone's "better" will be different. I do, however use the ART 9 and tried the DV on my table. Both are good carts. "Better" is subjective. I hear the ART 9 as a little more convincing/realistic on my VPI Classic. The next person responding will...

PrimaLuna Dialogue Premium Preamplifier. DESTROYS SPEAKERS!!
"Back in the day (and maybe still), rockers would intentionally take various sharp or blunt instruments to their speaker cones, too. Don’t know of many audio geeks who are doing that to their speakers. Although too many seem to allow their kids an... 
PrimaLuna Dialogue Premium Preamplifier. DESTROYS SPEAKERS!!
thorloki-very unfortunate event. Were  the units  serviced under warranty?I too, would be LIVID and would not encourage anyone to use whatever brand.As a PL user however, sounds like a rare incident. I've had nothing but  many trouble free years w...
