- Graham Engineering Phantom B-44
Incredible tonearm. Very easy to setup, very smooth sounding and does magic with sibilance. Very little damping fluid (just touch the bottom of the square shank) is much to my liking.
Dual Pivot , detachable and very tweakable arm.
New Ortofon AS-212S static balance tonearm.
Quiet, great speed stability!
Thorens TD-124 restored very carefully by myself. Woodsong Audio plinth.
Schopper Thorens TD-124 MKII acquired through Octave Audio
Loricraft restored. Oil bearing. Woodsong Audio plinth. Love it!!!
By Steve Dobbins. Stripped down to retain only essential parts. I just rebuilt the motor 2 weeks ago and it is so much quieter now.
Clearaudio's flagship wood body MM cartridge. Excellent sounding and great tracking.
Best tracker ever! Very smooth sounding. GREAT for the money!
Hi resolution digital player.
44.1-192khz, 16 & 24bit DAC
- Manley Laboratories Steelhead
After 3 (yes, three) Aesthetix Rheas gone noisy on me in just 3 weeks, I acquired this Stealhead in a rage. LOVE the sound and functionality..not so much so for the look..but oh well.
Signed by EveAnna herself!
Very musical preamp, great headphone section. Running with NOS Russian metal base 6SN7 with black
- Cary Audio Design CAD 211AE
Magical 3D presentation, though sounds a tad more laid back than BAT VK-150SE, they are still very dynamic.
- Tannoy Prestige Kensington SE
Makes magic with the midrange!
Pepperport (Curious why it's called as such)
Five way terminations
- Element Cable Signature Titan Ag
Detailed, smooth, transparent !!! Using it between my Bryston BDA-1, Manley Steelhead and Cary preamp, I dont miss ultra expensive cables!!!!
- Acoustic Zen Silver Reference RCA-Balanced
Made for me by Mr. Robert Lee (Very cool guy!). Running between Air Tight ATC-3 pre (RCA) and BAT 150SE Monos (Balanced) with a real balance config, not adapter.
- Acoustic Zen Silver Reference
Between phonostage Manley Steelhead and Air Tight ATC-3 preamp. I compared this IC with others in its price range up to twice its cost (from Discovery, Kimber Cable, Crystal cable, analysys plus..etc) and still prefer it over them.
My old, trusty speaker cable. I compared this with $2,400 - $3,500(dont remember exactly) cable from Crystal, and Nordost Heimdall (last week) and i prefer this due to: tighter , faster bass, more focus imaging, more transparent , hence, more detailed.
- LAT International IC-300 Signature
Run between Ayre C-5xe Universal player and Air Tight ATC-3 preamp. My 2nd favorite in under $1,000/m/pair category. Not sure what to replace when the upgrade bug bites again..cuz i have to pay so much more to gain so little.
Used for all components except Acutus power supply, for now.
- Panamax MAX 5510 AC Regenerator
Used for all front-ends and preamps. Cant wait to compare this combo (Max 5510 ACRegenerator and Max 4400-20A) to the on-order PS Audio Premier.
Inductorless Noise filtration, no current limit (reviewed in Stereophile together with MAXX 5510 Pro ACRegenerator). Used for BAT VK-150SE monos.
- PS Audio PS Audio Premier
New Power plant from PS Audio
- Nespa Professional Optical Disc Finalizer
Improve readability of optical discs. More obvious on some than other.
