| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? With all the talk of sending a Clearaudio Wood cartidge to Soundsmith for some of Peter's magic, why has no one considered comparing the Soundsmith Aida?? I know it is moving iron, and the discussion is moving magent. But if Peter is a miracle wor... | |
| How effective is the Onzow Zerodust? Salavat,One caveat for using the 3M Scotch-Brite is this. I don't believe the matrix of the Scotch-Brite is woven as tight or is as "dense" as the Magic Eraser so I think much more care would need to be exercised to avoid "snagging" the stylus if ... | |
| Where are you buying new vinyl? Music Direct. It is on the way home from work.Also Half Price Books. I've gotten many many LPs there; some for only 50 cents.Eric | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? I have read each post in this thread with much interest. Since I am not much of an audio tinkerer/tweaker, it is fascinating to hear what everyone has done and the results achieved. I have a question that I hope will not be viewed as a threadcrap ... | |

| Establishing a common analog listening bias Dertonearm,I think it may have been more appropriate to quote a more recent President . . ."It depends on what the meaning of the words 'is' is." –Bill ClintonI'll be interested to see how this turns out, but since I don't get what "it" is you're ... | |
| Help: DSOTM Sounds better on CD than LP Cadence 151,I read your original post with interest since I am also a Nottingham Analogue owner (Hyperspace - Ace Space). I always thought Fletcher was aiming a little low when he sent his tables out the door with a Tracer. I think from the Spaced... | |
| Record Cleaning Machine RCM If record cleaning was half as much fun as this thread has been, I wouldn't be backlogged 600 LPs right now!! :-) | |
| Establishing a common analog listening bias I guess I've completely misread the whole intent of the OP. After reading Dertonarm's response to my last post three times, I still don't know what he/she is saying. If this is just going to be one person saying "On side 2, four bars into the 2nd ... | |
