Confused about Rega and VTA....
I had a RP-6 some years ago. I ordered a round black disc that had various levels of height on it. You loosened the three anchor screws for the tonearm, and put this spacer under it. You turned the spacer  to get the proper level of height with it...

Revel Salon 2’s (used) or new Magico A-3 (new) ??
One last thing Audio Troy, I have neither the time nor the desire to get in a pissing match with you. You called me out about the FACTS, and I responded. For me, end of discussion. 
Revel Salon 2’s (used) or new Magico A-3 (new) ??
Audio Troy,This is fact: Awhile back I discussed with you a question regarding Loudspeakers. You pretty much dissed what I had for speakers and said they were no match for the Paradigm Persona line. If you don't remember or worse, if you believe i... 
New way for audiophiles to die!
This is ALMOST enough to make you quit the hobby. :-) 
Revel Salon 2’s (used) or new Magico A-3 (new) ??
telescope_trade,Just my opinion (and maybe some others), but before I would put all my eggs in Audio Doctor's basket, I would check out John Rutan of Audio Connection. He can give you the best advice in the business. IMHO. His system advice has fe...

Bluesound Node 2 as a preamp?
I use a Node 2 connected to an Ayre Codex via a high quality glass optical interconnect. The sound of this combo is stunning for the price. Much, much better than the Node 2 with it's own Dac. Although there is nothing wrong with it's on board Dac...

Why do I see more Vandersteen model 3s vs model 2s for sale?
Look guys, I said some people might like that look in the veneer. I personally, don't.  Remember I have Vandersteen Treo Ct's too!  And I love them. I have the mahogany stained walnut, and If my pair would have come to the dealer and looked like t... 
Why do I see more Vandersteen model 3s vs model 2s for sale?
There is a pair of Vandersteen Treo Ct's here on Audiogon. by TMR. They look in pretty good shape but the walnut veneers have some washed out discolorations on them. I see this as a defect in the veneer and surprised Vandersteen let those out of t... 
Who still listens to their First Generation Cd Players?
