Yes I have the Ikeda and Ortofon on separate head shells. Tracking force is a dynamic arrangement. So its just a matter of zeroing out the short arm and then dialing tracking force in. Of course you want to verify with a scale. Paperwork got messed up, but shipper got it resubmitted. Of course it cr...

Search engines are weird, and sometimes we miss information or posts with them. I happened to find this post when using my phone and when using my computer it never comes up in a search. But there is a bit of information that is interesting. I have owned the A90 and there are certain times when list...

One more week? That is the expectation. The only two times I recieved audio components from overseas it took around 4 or 5 days for it to deliver. I suspect it is however long it takes to clear customs is what sets the timetable for length of delivery. Transport itsef is by air cargo so that is typ...

Its going to be a bit of a job wrestling i...

I am glad to hear you are getting along with the Logic table and that your monies have been invested well for a restoration. I have heard positive things about the latest generation of Grado cartridges, but I have yet to have a chance to hear them. I was not terribly fond of the previous generation ...

I have very little unused gear. I have a First Watt F7 in its box in the garage on top of a very nice oak buffet that I don't have a place for in this home. I have a Musician Audio Monoceros pre amp in its box right next to it. I also have a pair of Frugal Horn Sachiko double horns on furniture movi...
