Michell Power Supply Upgrade
That's kinda what I thought from the reviews that I have read. It's an "okay" upgrade but for $795.00 I expect a lot more than suttle. 
Trichord Dino vs Vacuum State JLTi Phono Stages
Thanks Restock. I am also considering an E A R 834l. Have you compared the two? 
Buzzing Sound In Speakers
Thanks Thorman. I have been doing some research on the JLTI. It is definately being considered. Any other recommendations will be greatly considered. 
Buzzing Sound In Speakers
Well here is the latest in the never ending Buzzzzz saga. I have an old Marantz 6025 TT that I bought new in the 80s. I plugged it into my preamp and... buzzzzz. I grounded the Marantz to the Arcam preamp and the buzzing got better but was still t... 
Buzzing Sound In Speakers
It's more of a buzzing sound at high volume. I ran a ground from the bottom of the tonearm (threaded part) to the preamp and it helped somewhat but it is still there. If I disconnect the phono cables from the preamp inputs the bzzzing stops comple... 
Why No respect for Denon DL160 cartridge
I just bought one and they are a steal! Fantastic cartridge! They are going up in value at a quick pace. 
Dynavector 20 Xl , Benz Micro Ace SL or Denon
Well...I did it. I decided to upgrade my TT first. I am buying a new Michell Gyro SE. I will be using my upgraded Rega RB 300 arm with a Denon DL 160 cart (for now). I have a friend who is using one on his Michell and absolutely loves it. For the ... 
Dynavector 20 Xl , Benz Micro Ace SL or Denon
The Arcam C31 preamp comes with a built in MC/MM phono stage. 
Dynavector 20 Xl , Benz Micro Ace SL or Denon
Thanks so much to everyone. It looks like I will go with the Dyna 20 XL. I will post some updates as the break in period progresses. Guess I better do a little shopping. 
Home Theater Enclosure Problem?
I have been looking into purchasing some brass footers for my components. Has anyone used the Mapleshade Ultimate Triplepoints? Thank you. 
Home Theater Enclosure Problem?
I can hear the TV perfectly when it is played through the Arcam. I never miss a word. It's only on DVDs that I miss words occasionally.The digital signal is sent to the AVR 250 via a Transparent Premium TVC 2 meter digital cable. The viewing room ... 
Home Theater Enclosure Problem?
I have an Arcam AVR 250 with an Arcam DV78. The speakers are JM Lab 716S Chorus Line(mains) w/ a JM Lab 700S Chorus Line (center) and JM Lab 716S (rears). The front 3 spkrs have Rega cables. The problem is understanding the dialogue from the cente... 
Problem with Arcam or JM LABS
I am now considering ugrading my center to a JM Lab Cobalt or Electra line from my original Chorus CC700. Is there anyone out there who can honestly say that this upgrade will really make a difference. Thanks to all. 
Problem with Arcam or JM LABS
Thanks Rick but this is all old news to me. I purchased a sound level meter with little or no improvement. I agree with Shane and Jeff but the calibration and delays are set perfect. I am going to switch from the Rega cables going to the center sh... 
Problem with Arcam or JM LABS
Is there a digital coaxial lead and center channel cable that really helps with dialog? I have been told by some that it doesn't make a lot of difference especially on the coaxial lead. Thanks
