I have two comments here: 1) I'm not sure Archiv was one of DG's budget lines, as the sound quality of this label is first rate. 2) When some dogma refers to...

Thanks for the insight, I usually select records that have very little defects to the naked eye and have had good results. Sometimes I buy one that looks...

Recently found an excellent Repair Shop, especially good at problem pieces including tube equipment. His fee is reasonable but only disadvantage is his...
A few days ago, I went to play a couple of LPs. As I approached my turntable, I noticed that the tonearm is not where it is supposed to be - it's resting spot...
Think about a Benz, they have a good trade in program. David ... From: "Aleksandar Matijaca" <amatijaca@...> To: <toronto-audiophiles@yahoogroups.com> ...
I used to have a Benz (I think the model was Gold) and the Crown Jewel was just so much better -- are you thinking of a top-model Benz?? Or somewhere nearby??...
Sorry to hear about your plight Aleks. I had a similar incident a few years ago where I found the cantilever actually broken off under similar circumstances....
I know the feeling too. A sort of sickening, awful nausea. The first time it was my nephew. The last time it was my son. I suppose these things aren't covered...
Well, I have a turntable fitted with a low output Benz ACE with Lehmann Cube through TOtem Forests and it's my best systemyet. BTW, the tt is a Panasonic...
Thank you all for your kind words and support -- it seems the choices now seem to be: Shelter 901, Koetsu, Grado, Dynavector and Benz... I think, I will wait...
Alex: At the risk of being too inistent: In case you want to peserve your pocketbook, the Shelter 501 may do the trick, it's significantly better than the Benz...
I have no idea what the Crown Jewel is worth or what you are willing to spend now, but I had the Glider at one time, and I thought it very good. Later I...

Hi Alek. Your bad luck might refresh your vinyl desires even more, like you needed it. The insite I can give you is with my own Benz Micro H2O and my...
Funny how going fron a low output to a higher output MC cartridge within the same brand line seems to result in a lesser quality sound. (I find) it's the case...

I'm currently evaluating the new Ortofon Rondo Blue. It performs well above its price point. Quite a neutral-sounding cart, it should mix well with tubes. JT...
I think that this is quite a common phenomenon -- it is easier to 'jiggle' a coil with less metal on it. The Helikon Lyra SL model has half of the windings of...
I am considering picking up a cd player this Boxing Day. I'm looking for something under $500. Perhaps at some point I will add an outboard DAC but I don't...
