I do have fibre. It's fast enough via ethernet. 28 on cable downstairs but WiFi upstairs goes down to 6/8mbs. Considering it's not really going far...

Probably not. The SME needs high/highish compliance cartridges, say above 25cu. That rules out most MC's. The lovely Technics EPC-305 MC might just...

I have a vary wide taste in music. The artists I listened to recently is Tord Gustavsen & Vassilis Tsabropoulos.

Okay cheers, that's food for thought. Going in another direction, do you think a ortofon SPU might work?

ADC XLM III and ADC ZLM or if you can find them, Empire 1000 ZE/X and 999 VE/X (both rare). These are all vintage cartridges of high compliance and...

Cheers that interesting, will keep an eye out for one. Are there any other MM cartridges that you think might be a significant step up from the M55e?

Favourite film score, The Dark Knight a close second Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk

Yep, I do find them good value too. Service over the years has been up and down and yes they do seem to go through the same painful 'script' every...

Hi Clive pmd matey

Pimpernel Smith 1941

I can't think of any that would be a good match to the SME. If you could locate a decent vintage ADC 10E Mk.IV with original stylus, you'd have...

Another vote for this track. I like the Nine Inch Nails version but Johnny Cash's is very special, even more so with the video

Sorry I should have been clearer! The question is about what u had to do to get the cartridge set up and aligned. My Bronze has been setup originally...

Yeah already using a Shure M55e, interested to know what other options are out there that might work as well or better.

Hi Andy, It's this: Primary: 240v Secondary: 1x 165v 0.08 Secondary: 1x 9-0-9v 1A

The best cartridge for this arm is almost certainly a Shure V15 variant. So do you want to go there or are you looking for something else? Sent...

got a chubby

Key areas for removing contacts altogether are where voltage and current are low. Both volume controls and signal switching as example can be...

Seems to be a Genesis theme going on :) So I may as well add to it: Genesis: Blood on the Rooftops (Wind and Wuthering) XTC: Greenman (Apple...

Interesting, I've never heard of that before :scratch: Bare wire is prefered by some as it's a direct connection which should be good. Be...

Hi Oliver Thinking about parts etc , looked at the build guide and the Transformer spec is: • Primary 230V (or your local rating of...

Certainly look the part as well that's for sure :)

Sounding mighty fine tonight...
