How about Van Den Hul cartridges? Which version should I get for my JMW9 arm? (I am also planning on upgrading it to a 10.5 arm, unless anybody else could tell me otherwise.)I am also looking at Zyx cartridges, which I think would be a better matc...

Different arm for VPI Scoutmaster
Actually, I called VPI and they said that I can trade in my JMW9 for a new JMW10.5. Is it worth the upgrade?

Correct fuse for Denon 5910?

HDMI cable made a difference in picture quality??
Hifisoundguy, it would not be likely for digital artifacts to show up as faded or missing details. For analog tranmission, yes, since the output of analog is a direct product of the signal being transmitted and if cable is suspect, then result pic... 
HDMI cable made a difference in picture quality??
If you freeze frame, it would cause the digital source to output the exact same data per each frame per second. So if there is distortion caused by cable not up to specification, radom noise would be introduced in the form of digital artifacts. Th... 
HDMI cable made a difference in picture quality??
