| Phono cable recommendations - high performance good value cable I am also after such cable (initial post). I read a lot of good things about Silver Breeze. I wonder how it compares to other cables such as VdH 501 Hybrid or Stealth Hyperphono. | |
| Best Phono Cable for SME Series V I wonder if you guys can help me in getting good phono cable. Given the above discussion things changed with new products from Purist, Cardas and others so I wonder how the current offer stands against to date favorites mentioned here. Currently I... | |
| Calling all VDH Colibri Fanatics and Experts ... Of course. Your Frog may have different cantilever position and it is all individual per cartridge settings. But this is interesting. | |
| Calling all VDH Colibri Fanatics and Experts ... So you are having the tonearm level at the moment and this gives you current 93.17d? | |

But in my case AO PU7 does not have the scale but the weight that you can slide up or down the metal stick with no scale. So my settings could be wrong yet I... | |
| Calling all VDH Colibri Fanatics and Experts ... And how did you set antiskate for your Frog? | |
| Calling all VDH Colibri Fanatics and Experts ... Or my load is too much. I run my preamp at1kOhm. And you? | |
| Calling all VDH Colibri Fanatics and Experts ... Thanks. Quite a different sound but really nice and very well balanced overall. Mine is perhaps too edgy in comparison, too bright with less bass present. I noticed that either you or I have L/R channels swapped. | |
