| No Output from left channel on Primaluna Dialogue HP May seem like a silly question, but having never delt with audiophile fuses, how can you tell if the fuse is blown? Is there more than one fuse in the Primaluna? | |
| Your choice - TT, Arm, Stage, Cartridge - $5000 budget @tablejockey What do you like about the ART9? And what other carts did you try first?The Whest phono stage can accommodate up to 72dbs gain I believe. So we should be good there. | |
| Your choice - TT, Arm, Stage, Cartridge - $5000 budget OK scratch that. I settled on a stage. Went with a used Whest PS.30rdt SE 2017 spec, which supposedly is has updated and improved components over the older SE models.

| Your choice - TT, Arm, Stage, Cartridge - $5000 budget Yeah I think I am probably going to pass on the Bronze for the time being. The dealer also also offers other Ortofon, SoundSmith, and Grado carts and already assured me that he will offer me a solid discount on a new cart considering I’m buying a ... | |
| Your choice - TT, Arm, Stage, Cartridge - $5000 budget @jmcgrogan2 So you weren't the biggest fan of the Cadenza bronze? Have you tried any other carts on your Prime?$1600 was just a touch more than I intended on spending on the cart. But the cart lists at $2300. So I can definitely push the boundarie... | |

Seems like a decent offer but is slightly more than I expected to spend initially. Anyone have any opinions on this Prim... | |
| Your choice - TT, Arm, Stage, Cartridge - $5000 budget The Lyra Delos seems like a stellar cartridge. Ultimately would be very interested on that based on what I've read about However, ain't getting it from analogue seduction.

| Your choice - TT, Arm, Stage, Cartridge - $5000 budget Fact. I've definitely tried a few, but plan on upgrading to something on pair with the quality of setup. I'm open to suggestions for that as well. I've budgeted separate money for that. I just needed to wait untill I determined which table and arm... | |
| Your choice - TT, Arm, Stage, Cartridge - $5000 budget Hopefully the offer for the VPI goes through. Either way, I'll definitely post my experience no matter what direction I ultimately go. My current setup is a Project Debut Carbon with the acrylic platter and a AT 440mlb cart. Ended up being a pret... | |
| Your choice - TT, Arm, Stage, Cartridge - $5000 budget Yeah I am gonna make a bid at the VPI Prime for the time being. Definitely seems like a reasonable option. And its available.I like some of the other tables. Gyrodec, Nottingham, etc. But if I can get the Prime for $2200-2500, that definitely give... | |
| Your choice - TT, Arm, Stage, Cartridge - $5000 budget So I've been taking all the advice here and looking into things pretty heavy. I definitely think the right play is to spend a majority of the budget right now on the table and stage. Solid advice. The VPI Prime seems like a very attractive option ... |
