There is nothing new here. In fact reissue labels have been digitizing and cleaning up LPs and acetates for years were this is the only surviving source. Problem is that you end up with a digitally...

Those underlined words are the crux of the problem. It has to be a higher volume more cost effective exercise. There is certainly a gap in the market between Timestep modified bearing and current MN...

How about a more cost effective bearing upgrade? Apply some value engineering into reducing size and weight and concentrate on the actual bearing interface. Something that sold for £150 -£200 would...

You can get equivalent parts from Maplin for a few quid. RA have increased the price of these quite a bit since I purchased them.

Jerry. The lack of bass Martin mentions is likely due to impedance matching between source and power amplifiers. From experience using a buffer stage between passive and power amp cured the problem...

Stu. Who is organising the show and is there a dedicated web site?

As most people will gather I don't rate the Lp12 and certainly these days a 20% improvement (always subjective) can be had by spending far less than the full Technics mods cost. This would involve...

The example given is not a good one as a Birth Certificate should be sent Special Delivery. Frankly sending this first class is foolish and the clerk was doing her a favour. They usually ask you the...

Michael Fremer reviewed it on his site and did a comparison with other recently reviewed stages. It was easily beaten by the similarly priced Lehmann Black Cube SE II. A number of sample files were...

If you join a certain forum connected to NVA you can ask for a free trial of the basic NVA passive. Borrow Jerry's Tisbury and you can do a free comparison and determine if the extra cost is...

Precisely so given the owner of NVA doesn't overcharge this would suggest that higher quality components are inside. Why not buy a Tisbury and NVA and return the one you least like under the 30 day...

Yes an excellent album. The new vinyl is one of the best sounding pressings I have ever purchases. Apparently this is an all analogue recording. Sorry to rub it in for those listening from files or...

It's a mystery on the face of it. It's possible the Tonar brush has done more damage and lots of micro scratches can cause crackle as I discovered with some records that stuck to the inner sleeve...

Better sounding than I remember (vinyl LP) but a bit uneven. 7/10.

I think it depends which stepped attenuator they use. The extra cost of stepped attenuators on the NVA passives is near the price of the Tisbury so it may use a cheap and inferior brand. (remember...

You are doing something wrong. I would guess running the vac until records are beyond just dry. Maybe not using enough fluid ? Two rotations recommended, 3 max. I have had no need to use my Zerostat...

If it was me I would send it to Audiograil. Look at their Youtube videos. There are certain operations they do that are beyond the DIYer which include removing rivets. Their 301s sounded great at...

The problem is not book prices but a well known auction site. Just because people pay £400 for a battered 401 on there doesn't mean one is obliged to pay that amount. Equipment regularly sells on...

This was reissued on limited vinyl end of last year and still available. It is a great recording in addition to the original blend of musical styles. Since I played it recently I can confidently...

It is worth pointing out that Brendan Rogers didn't make a big impact last season but team has now jelled. Takes about 18 months if the Manager is actually any good. There will be a summer buying...

BBC show little live football. Highlights mainly late Saturday night is hardly excessive. They only show what they can afford and that means sharing with Sky. Remember absolutely no Cricket on...

City have to win the league given their expenditure. They were knocked out of the cup by Wigan (at home) as well as failing in Europe (no surprise given the opposition). Pressure is on but they...

It's only a concept product at a show. Probably nothing under the lid/platter. Just Pioneer might be bringing a model out. It all depends if they want to invest a lot of money or take the easy option...

Nice to know they did the job Bev.
