| Restore Thorens TD 165 or buy a VPI Traveller? Ditto VPI ! | |
| Best mm cart for VPI scout/jmv-9 memorial arm Get yourself a Grado,as a matter of fact VPI use to sell the Sonata VPI version ! You can give them a call and ask them if they still do. BTW HW loves Grado's. MM and MI are very close in design, kind of a horse of a different color! | |
| What amplifier do you use for your Dahlquist DQ10s I owned the DQ 10's many moons ago! They need a good amount of power! There is a Conrad-Johnson MF-200 (200 watts per channel)listed on this site for $750. It would go real nice with the 10's! You can google that amp to find out more information. ... | |
| which tube preamp Since you only play CD's get yourself a nice passive and save yourself some cash! | |
| advice on dedicated line Elizabeth, now that makes sense! Thanks | |
| advice on dedicated line A 15 amp circuit is 1800 watts,a 20 amp circuit is 2400 watts. I don't know of any audio or video system that comes close to using that much power! I think this is all overkill if I am wrong please someone clue me in? I always thought it was safer... | |
| How much to spend on a decently good phono stage? IMHO,I think the phono preamp is the most important component in the chain! That being said,you should get a nice tube unit! Check out the Croft Acoustics RIAA,at $995 it looks like a real winner! | |
| Help for my return to vinyl -- $2K rig. Croft Acoustics RIAA Phono Preamp $995Sota Moonbeam turntable arm included $750Grado Silver $200 | |
| VTA adjustment for an RB600 Not a problem! | |
| Tweeter height...align with ears? Every monitor I've owned the manufacturer suggests ear height! I always use 24 inch stands,you can always make them higher but you can't make them lower! | |
| Ortofon 2M Black or Dynavector 20x2 Grado Reference Sonata 1 should be on your list! | |
| Help for a vinyl novice Check out SOTA Moonbeam,it is $750.You will have $250 left over to buy a nice Grado cartridge! | |
| woofer excursion at start of lp Tbromgard,I've had tonearms that worked better with no anti-skating applied at all. Take off the anti-skating completly and rebalance arm ,then see if that works. | |
| woofer excursion at start of lp Tonearm and cartridge are resonating! You can try fooling with the anti-skating other wise get a subsonic filter so you do not damage speakers! | |
| Swap Mono amps Left for Right If they are the same amps it should make no difference. Are you sure the polarity and speaker tap hookup are the same? Swap them back and see what results you get! |
