| Old Victrola Greetings, I have 2 antique TT’s. One from 1905?? and 1916. I think they look great. Only spin them once in a while. No AC requirements. We are still dragging a rock or piece of metal thru a groove and getting wonderful music. Sometimes it feel... | |
| What happens when the stylus tip wears out on a $12,000 cartridge? Greetings The only thing one can do is trade it in for a new one or up your game and go for a $15k cartridge. Once you get to the high end in cartridges it’s hard to go backwards. Joe Nies | |
| Cueing Lever Issue - Repairable or Replace? Greetings, As Lewm says above. Just be careful that you don’t raise it too much or the arm will not drop. On 2 of my TT’s the cueing lever sits very close to the plinth. So I use a wooden chop stick to raise the lever. Works quite well. Trimmed ... | |
| Oracle Delphi MK1 or VPI Prime???? Greetings @erivera1990 I’m a big fan of Oracle TT’s as you know. I have had the Oracle Delphi TT in my system for over 40 years. I now have the MK VI as my main TT. It is a better sounding TT than my ClearAudio Master Solution. Putting a new mo... | |

| Telos Mini Quantum Resonator (MQR) & Puron Filter together Hello @ozzy No sir. The fourth time I used the filter it was plugged into the same outlet that feeds my outlet strip. Per another forum post on this subject I removed the MIT Z Stabilizer from my system, per your suggestion. I replaced it with a... | |
| Telos Mini Quantum Resonator (MQR) & Puron Filter together Greetings, I guess I’m the only one that has had no luck with the Puron filters. I had them in my main system 4x over the last few months. The last time they were in my main system for more than a week. I finally pulled them out and hoped my syst... | |
| WHY CABLES MATTER! Greetings, I have been a cable enthusiast for the last 50 years. I started using 1000 strand welding cable as one of my first cables. About 40 years ago I brought some cables to work to show one of my fellow workers the different cables that wer... | |

| Gotham Quadratic Diffusers Hello @lwin No I didn’t get any break on the shipping. It cost me $456.50 to ship the 2 boxes to me. Outrageous shipping costs but I really wanted this type of diffuser for a very long time. Shipping cost are the main reason I don’t have a lot o... | |
| Gotham Quadratic Diffusers Greetings Well I finally sucked it up and purchased 4 of the Quads. I really like how they look. They work a bit better than the Slot Diffuser/Absorption that were behind my speakers. I waited too many years to get this type of diffuser and I th... | |

| Help me select few vinyl LPs Greetings, Since this is a gift, get an album from Better Records. Kinda pricey but you get a very good sounding album and it is meticulously cleaned. I believe anyone who enjoys listening to albums should have at least 1 in their collection. Jo... | |
