VPI feet
If I recall you do want to raise the motor the same difference as the upgraded feet vs the stock. Yes adjust the height of the motor.

Plugging Amp into Power Conditioner???
My experiece is plugging direct with a amp to outlet sounds better then going through any line conditioner.Amp through LC can sometimes sound like a blanket is over your speakers. ( so to speak )Dedicated lines are a real plus to start with. If yo... 
vpi classic -phono cable
Any IC will work just as well if not better then a "Phono" cable. Try one you have and you will see what I mean. I have yet to buy a phono cable that betters the least expensive Harmonix. I have had great success with others, it's just what sounds... 
Best budget $300 Balanced IC Recommendation
I think there are many good cables in the 300.00 and under price range. Having gone through thousands of dollars in chasing that improvement that is just not worth it. Darkmoebius mentioned trying something I never heard or thought of, well worth ... 
Lector CDP7 vs Primare CD31
I have owned 2 of the CDP7 players. I have heard the Primare, don't recall the model as I had no interest.The Lector will get you close to analog.There are other ( Tube ) players that will also get you there. The issue I have with a Lector is they... 
SACD vs. Vinyl
You have opened a can of worms. I have tried every configuration there is and to me Vinyl Rules. Sure they get close with digital, but it still is not as dynamic as vinyl. You can take a 1000.00 TT set up and 9 out of 10 times it will blow away an... 
Valab Silver Power Cable - Any thoughts?
Richard.Power amp first I found a nice improvement. Then CD and last to me was Pre.We find the cord very clean sounding, not bright but very fine definition. Low end is fast, tight and deeper then many others cords that cost 4 to 5 times more. Lot... 
Valab Silver Power Cable - Any thoughts?
I bought them over 2 years ago ( 3 of them ) sent 1 to many of my audiogon friends who all in turn bought their own. Not that we replaced all our cords but without mentioning names many of us gave up our 1000.00 cords in place of these. I have not...

New Item: Blackholes. These were developed by Peter at Red Point Audio. Dan Wright at Modwright is handling distribution. I bought a set of 3 for under my Phono Pre.I have had just about all of the tweaks out there. These did so much more then any... 
Power Conditioning: How Do You Know You Need It?
You should first consider dedicated lines ( if possible ) before any LC is added. Many LC will color your sound as mentioned.

Confirmed by what Bill K stated. I have the same table/motorenjoy. 
Best Cd Player under $4000?
I third Jaybo and Audio Revelation. I can't recall which model of Focals I had as they only lasted a week or so in my set up. Lean & mean is a understatement. No control on high end.I moved mine to many times to try and correct this. The last ... 
exactpower ep 15A
I have the exact Power EP 15A and had a issue. I called and no service unless I wanted to pay $$$$$$$ for them to trouble shoot. I had my plant electrician check it out and it was a 5.00 part needed that he picked up from a electrical supply. I wo...
