| adcom gfp 555 McCormack DNA.5 would probably fill the bill, for a softer sound maybe a Muse 100. If you need craploads of power and want to spend about half that cost, the Adcom GFA-555 is the natural mate. | |
| Predicting the AGon economy? The audio market has been splitting for many years now. Rare, desirable, collectable, gear and items that are of recent manufacture and have been favorably reviewed by the hi-fi press continue to bring a larger percentage of their original selling... | |
| adcom gfp 555 You have a nice preamp there, what are your speakers, how large is room, and what is your musical taste? | |
| Tone arm question I am happy to answer the actual question that you asked. In normal use, tonearms do not wear out, however the bearings are quite fragile on some models and mounting cartridges without removing these tonearms from the turntable can cause Brinelling... | |
| Quality Budget RCA Interconnects My favorite are the Goertz Micro-Purl Cu, which are in your price range used. For new, Blue Jeans Cable makes some very nice cables. | |

| We Need an Affordable Record Flattener HXT, once again you are promoting misconceptions. I never gave up my vinyl collection and have several thousand LPs to a few hundred CDs. Still primarily vinyl. You need to check your facts. | |
| We Need an Affordable Record Flattener Hey, one third of the population of America is obese. Maybe we can get some of those dudes from the reality show "Celebrity Fit Club" to sit on our LPs and flatten them out. If that doesn't work, since cars are no longer selling, maybe the new car... | |
| Quality of New MoFi recordings The very first series of MoFi remasteres - note that, for the the most part, other than trains and thunderstorms, MoFi never made recordings, remasterings and pressings is more like it - were mastered by the great Stan Ricker and are complete stan... | |
