| Best amp under $6k, in your opinion? I forgot one other:Moscode 401HR . Tremendous amp. Should be near the top of your audition list.I presently use Pass Labs XA-60.5. Outstanding amps. They do not have enough power for 87dB speakers played at high volume, IMO. | |

| Anyone hear technics tt and vpi scoutmaster/Aries? ROP, have you heard other analog systems to compare to yours? Maybe even taken a couple of LPs to Elliot Mitwood's place to hear if what he has differs substantially from what you hear at home?Maybe there's a smaller difference than you imagine.Fo... | |

| Load Settings for Dynavector 20XL? General rule of thumb courtesy of member "Nsgarch":25 x 5 ohms = 125 ohms+/- 50% of 125 ohms is a range of about 75 ohms to 200 ohms.Start with 75 ohms, and increase to 125 or 250 ohms until the bass sounds right. | |

I wouldn't change it unless your preamp inverts phase, but I'm sure you know that already.You could always swap ... | |
| Anyone hear technics tt and vpi scoutmaster/Aries? 09-28-08: Radioheadokplayerthe question is whether the technics is a giant killer or close.Clearly, by your recent posts, you are not satisfied with the Technics table or your Benz cartridge. There's nothing wrong with that. Several Audiogon membe... | |
| Synergistic Research Tesla x4 speaker cable Guidocorona has it correctly in his explanation above. It's an issue of improper installation rather than the cable itself.Just be sure you have plus-to-plus and minus-to-minus (or red-to-red and black-to-black). |
