| Professional Turntable Setup In NJ Jeffrey,Why do you need someone to set it up for you? If you have a Garrard 301/401 in a solid plinth, then it's not that difficult, especially if you've NOT got a unipivot arm. Is your arm mounted yet? If not, measure the pivot to spindle distanc... | |
| New2Analog - Table Setup Help? Jeff,The cheapest decent vacuum record cleaning machines (RCMs) are the Okki Nokki and the Moth RCMs. There's a whole load of threads about which cleaning solution to use. Me, I use 80% (by volume) distilled water, 20% alcohol (70% isopropyl alcoh... | |
| Raven vs. Verdier La Platine I have PV, but have heard the Raven many times at Graham Tricker's home (GT Audio). They're both excellent TTs. I bought my PV about 5 years ago and it has the GT Audio Battery PSU (top upgrade), Schroeder Model 2 and an Allaerts MC1B on it. Am I ... | |

All the TRON pieces are built to order by Graham in his workshop at home. Inevitably there's a time lag between placing the ... | |
| Any experience with the Tron Syren Preamplifier I've heard the Syren several times. I own a TRON Meteor, which was the immediate pre-cursor of the Syren. In fact, my Meteor is Graham Tricker's (TRON designer) personal demo unit which was upgraded over time to use circuits very similar to the Sy... | |
| Do I need a record cleaning machine I use an old Keith Monks Record Cleaner. Easy, cheap, effective and does the trick. Bit noisy though. I agree with the others - a wet cleaner is pretty essential if you have any sized record collection.Charlie | |
