    Previously happy LP12 owners who moved on.....

    Moved from LP12 to Feickert Woodpecker with Kuzma Stogi S12 VTA (unipivot) about 12 years ago... Woodpecker is a "set and forget" table and sounds wonderful... currently running it with an Audio Technica VM750SH

    Your Best Audio System Upgrade of 2023?

    Start of the year, I bought a few sets of Mogami 2497 RCA cables from audiocables.eu, for source and pre-power connections... They really are pretty good. Later in the year (received between Xmas and NY), I bought a Gustard A26 DAC. It really is very good. I thought my Schiit Gungnir Multibit...

    Streamers. Thoughts/asvice

    Just as an experiment, have you tried the coax out on the node, into the topping, to see if things change. Or, use the toslink from the audiolab transport into the topping to see if things get worse. It may just be that the toslink output is not very good on the node? Then, if it does make a...

    Banana Plugs....current choices/bargains out there??

    I've been using these for the past few years... Never noticed anyy difference between these and soldered deltron or beryllium copper ones that I've had before... Reasonably cheap too. https://sewelldirect.com/products/deadbolt-banana-plugs

    Very good sounding pure external MM phono preamplifier

    I've been liking my Graham Slee Accession for quite a while now, with an Audio Technica VM 750SH ACCESSION by Philip Johnson, on Flickr

    Fiio players

    I agree... I have used an x5 iii... Sounded great, but clunky is right... slows down and takes a while to respond as well... did a number of factory resets but, after a while, it slows down again.... Gave up after a while and now use an Astell & Kern SR15... Sounds good (read...better) and...

    Chord Mojo distortion/fuzziness

    My first thought was maybe the output level of the mojo may be overloading your amp input on peaks... IIRC, Mojo can output up to 3V in line level mode, which is higher than a lot of other devices. This is just a guess, as I don't know what your amplifier is ... Of course, it could be an issue...

    Cartridge for Kuzma Stogi S 12 VTA on a budget

    I use an Audio-Technica VM750SH with mine, and I like it a lot... I did use a Goldnote Vasari gold prior to the A-T, which was also good, but a bit warmer. Not saying that the A-T is bright, but the goldnote was a fair bit warmer than it...

    Recommendations for good budget interconnects

    I use cables that comprise Amphenol RCAs and Van Damme XKE instrument cable... Sound pretty good to me. Link shows a pre-made cable using the same parts as mine, but I make mine myself. They Cost about $12 Australian (GBP 6-7) in parts for a 1 metre stereo pair at local prices... plus a little...

    Best MM cartridge on Ittok LVII?

    I'll second the use of the AT VM7xx series. Unfortunately, I can't comment on it's use in an Ittok, because I don't have one. However, my AT VM 750SH is sounding mighty fine, mounted on my Kuzma S12VTA arm, on a Feickert Woodpecker Turntable, into a Graham Slee Accession... I bought mine on a...
