| Next Turntable I recently upgraded my table. After a great deal of research I went with the Galibier. My experience with Thom Machris of Galibier has been excellent and his table is one of the very best I have heard. It is easy to set up and does not require con... | |
| Electrostats I have owned Martin Logans and they are very good but I have to agree that Innersound speakers are fantastic. I drive them with tube amps. This is contrary to popular thinking on the best approach to drive stats but I have tried good solid state a... | |
| Supratek Cortese vs. CAT / Nagra PL-P I fell in love with the Cortese. So much so that I have purchased a Grange. My Cortese (only 6 monthe old) will be up for sale. Fantastic piece of equipment. I have no experience with the others.Doc | |

If your budget is 5K with arm and cart.Galibier is introducing a deck which will sell for around 2500. plus arm and cart.... | |

I was concerned about over-damping with the high mass design. Not an issue at all. The table digs deep and l... | |

| Chris Whitley 1960-2005 A great loss to the music world and indeed to his family. I will spin one tonight in his honor. He will be missed. | |
| CAT vs. Aesthetix vs. Supratek - Preamp Choice Something to keep in mind. Tubes make a huge difference. The sound of my Cortese changed a great deal when I replaced tubes. I also use a Van Den Hul Black Beauty Sp xwith otl amps and esl speakers. The Cortese with some tube rolling in my system ... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Mustang, I am also using the Phillips Miniwatt in my Cortese. It was a big improvement. I have had little success on the 5881's. I appreciate the tip on the 6F6GT's. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Did changing the fuse solve your problem? | |
| Any recomendations for in wall speakers? I heard Joseph Audio in wall speakers at CES. They were very impressive considering the acoustics in the room. | |
| Sick of static-y Rega felt mat I agree with Hamish. I have a Rega P9 with the Herbie TT mat. It is very good. | |
| Denon DVD-5910 Transport for a DAC??? Check out MSB Technology. Their DAC units are very good and you might be surprised at what can be done with the 5910 using the MSB network modification. If nothing else the site goes into detail with information that will answer many of your quest... | |
