    If you can eliminate the phono stage by trying another, that will help too. Low headroom can give such an effect too

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    Well just a quick update. I've been emailed by the guys at JICO to inform me that my neoSAS M55E replacement stylus is being shipped tomorrow. So should be here in next 7-14 days.

    Yeah seen it thanks. It makes me think that $211 is probably a good price to pay for what I'm getting.

    Tonights Update - The Reference Leno Pt XXVIII - I'm getting board (sic) of this!!!!

    So, the deck is going great guns and I'm very happy with the way everything has turned out. I'm thinking of the next stage of the development of the deck and I came across the APTITLIG bamboo chopping boards from IKEA (not IKEDA!!!!) after reading an article over on The Audio Beat website. I decided to order 3 of these boards for a grand total of less than £30 delivered. I've bought three just in case they actually work, they will be recycled as Xmas pressie if they don't! I have decided to be frugal this year with the hifi habit, I realise that sometimes you just have to spend the money but mostly with a little lateral thinking great amounts of money can be saved whilst still getting a step up the sonic ladder. This ethos is also quite fun in that is saves money and really makes you think WHY you've gone down a specific route with a tweak. The APTITLIG boards are made from Bamboo so 2 will be used as actual isolation boards whilst the third will be sacrificed to make coupling feet. It should pass a few weeks through Feburary. Meanwhile the rest of January is being spent getting used to the new tonearm configuartion. I really should have done the tonearm work weeks ago but it was Xmas and I needed a bloody rest! And there lies the roadmap of development for the next six-eight weeks. Then I think I need to start looking at my list of threads that I have saved from Lenco Heaven to see if there are any other areas to pimp the '75. One area that does have me excited is the Frenk (DC) motor, but that's probably going to be discussed in more detail in another few months! As always........

    Christmas presents I like your thinking Andy
    Are you planning to out anything under them ? Bits of board cut up ?
    I'm glad the GL75 in its present form is doing it for you mate , and I'm pretty sure the Jico SAS is going to provide you with another massive upgrade
    I'll have a look at the Frenk motor properly when I get the chance Andy . For now ...off to ma cot

    Yep I'm cutting one of the boards up for coupling duties. The deck is now going through slow logically thought out upgrades. 90% of the big stuff has been done and the final 10% is just tweaking and experimentation.
