    I'm not sure that this is as clear cut as some would make out. I've enjoyed quite a bit of re-mastered new vinyl: Kate Bush and Jethro Tull for a start off. The Abbey Road half speed version of John...

    Many 'recipes' for record cleaning solution seem to be IPA based. However, I've been using a 50:50 mix of purified water and bio-ethanol with 10ml of Ilfotol in 1 litre. You can get the bio-ethanol...

    Storing CDs

    Been wondering about this for a while.......

    For the second time in a month or so I've bought new vinyl which, after a clean on an Okki, has played flawlessly except for several cracks and pops on the last 10 seconds of the final side as it...

    To be fair, Shane, when it came to it I think the problem was actually more to do with the sub-chassis. When Steve took the original board off he found that when the platter was level the board...

    That's my turntable! :)

    I haven't collected it yet, so can't comment on the sound, but judging by the photographs it seems that Steve's done a fantastic job. I suspect that having everything on a...

    Yes, keep all the TT2 info coming - the wealth of TT2 knowledge on AoS was one of the reasons I joined. I could never understand why the TT2 didn't get mentioned much on any of the other forums.

    I also had some terrible problems recently.

    I use a late 2012 Mac Mini with Audirvana feeding a Heed DAC via USB. The sound output just stopped without warning. Everything 'looked' OK, just no...

    It's definitely not the volume (been caught be that before!).

    The DAC was tested at my local dealers - I took it in and he plugged it in between a NAS and a Linn Streamer I think. I know that it...

    I'm hoping there might be some Mac experts who might be able to help a technophobe in need of assistance!

    TT2 Levelling & Arm Board

    I'm hoping that some of the resident Heybrook TT2 owners/experts can offer some guidance......

    It's always proved to be impossible to level both the arm board AND the platter. When...
