LP playback is lacking - any ideas?


I looking for ideas to improve my vinyl playback. I have a vpi 19 jr. with a Linn Akito arm and Benz Glider cartridge.
The phono pre-amp is an audio research ph-3. The sound I get is congested and i don't know why. I'm to sort of 'open up' the sound more. Any ideas folks?

Could be anything -- dontcha love it? If the arm is set up properly, then I'd be tempted to look first at what is supporting your TT (you don't mention that) room as a likely culprit. Of course, if your CD player produces a similar kind of congestion, I might suspect your room.
Oops, strike the word "room" in the second line, above. I just mean what your turntable is sitting on.
