It might not be necessarily the new wire. With analog there are other billion reasons why it might not sound as it should. Still, I personally can’t stay listening “new” wire with MC cartridges.  If you recently futzed with the arm wire then you...

[quote user="drdna"]I think that the perception of the Onyx depends on the rest of one's stereo system and the other components one compares it to.When I say the Koetsu is one of the top cartridges in the world, I would say this about most modern aud...

Thanks for your thoughts Paul. The subject of the snubber has already been quite discussed.IIRC Romy has turned the whole idea down as uncessary in his context. I am afraid thata snubber may be a sonic move rather than only "engeneering". I'll first ...

Since the “Hunan Style” phonostage-chasses is coming to me and will host my 7788-7721 (64dB) corrector (that I love) I was wondering where I can get an extra 10-20dB to run .2mV cartridges. You mentioned the Lundahl “amorphous core” transformers...
