| New Scout 1.1 with hum issues, kind of fixed? You also might try sanding the pivot pin the arm sits on. There was a short period where the unipivot came coated. With that coating the arm has no way to ground itself. I had this issue on my Prime and was told to use very fine steel wool until I... | |
| Mounting a cartridge I would give Music Direct a call. They can certainly guide you toward the tools you will need. Thay may also let you sit in while they mount your cartridge. | |
| New Cartridge Suggestions You should try Music Direct. They are on the North side of Chicago west of Ashland and North of Foster. When I lived there they were always very helpful and never pushed me into something I could't afford. | |
| Considering used towers under $1000.. They are a bit of a stretch over your $1000 budget but you may be able to get a listen to a Tekton speaker. This listing on Audiomart is in Chicago for the Pendragons ($1300)https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649351477-uncompromising-speakers-tek... | |
| Seeking subwoofer recommendation +4 for svs. Great subs excellent value amazing customer support. | |
| Tekton DI Monitors Jayctoy where does that put you in terms of frequency. Each manufacture has a different starting point for crossover. For example the svs at 9-o’clock would be right about 70hz. | |

| Upgrade from Jolida JD9 Mk 2 phono stage? I went from the Jolida to an Avid Pulsus to an Icon Audio ps1 Mkii. The Avid was in my opinion very detailed and quiet. It was a little on the cool side of neutral. I really missed the midrange of tubes and the ability to handle the clicks and po... | |
| Upgrade from Jolida JD9 Mk 2 phono stage? Are you wanting to stick with tubes or is solid state okay? | |
| Jolida owners, Need tube help The gold lion gold pins are great for sure. I also rely like the northern electric tube from the tube store. They are very neutral and clean sounding. | |
| Is the upgrade from Scout 1.1 to the Prime worth it? So I thought I would post a follow up. I did end up with the Prime. I will say what I noticed right away was how quiet it was. Absolutely no hint of noise. Not that I can say that I ever noticed any noise with my scout but the Prime was noticeabl... | |
| What are you listening to right now? Beck colors delux new 45 rpm red vinyl. Dead quiet and dynamic as H. E. Double hockey sticks. | |
| Is the upgrade from Scout 1.1 to the Prime worth it? Thank you I really appreciate all of your opinions. I think I will make the leap to the Prime. I will also likely upgrade the Bronze to the Black until I can afford to do a nice MC and step up at the same time. I will be back for recommendations. |
