Your Nominations: Top Phono Stages under $1,000
As a number of others have mentioned, the Croft is a wonderful unit. I replaced my Tube Box S with the Croft about a year ago, and am quite happy with the change.

@ les-creative-edgeThe True/Square design is fine and dandy if the stylus is perfectly aligned within the cartridge body, but good luck with that. This is why azimuth adjustment is vital to me. I can put on a test record and plug in my Fozgometer ... 
If you had to choose between Okki-Nokki and Pro-Ject record cleaners....
Hi Erik. It's a 56 panhead (slightly modified HAHAHA) I went up to the Clear Audio Double Matrix Pro Sonic. It is a fabulous RCM, with a price tag to match!!! I am primarily a vinyl listener, and my collection is quite valuable to me, so the cost ...

I would definitely recommend moving forward and getting a RCM with vacuum capabilities. I have recently upgraded (substantially) my RCM. I had used the Okki Nokki for a few years before upgrading, and I went with it because dollar for dollar it se...

Amps from the 1980's -- What gear holds up sonically? Reliably?
I bought a Bryston 3B new, in and around 1985. It still works flawlessly, and has seen a tough life at times, but not once did it ever go back for service/repairs. It has now been passed along to my son for his system. I never strayed from the Bry...
