Hello All,
It's been a while since I posted here. I wanted to ask a question. Has anyone here ever purchased anything from Mapleshade(Records)? If anyone has purchased any of their products please tell me what your experience has been (good or bad)

Thank You

Can anybody tell me how these LOMC's compare to each other soundwise? They're all similarly priced and within my budget. I want a LOMC with less edge and more smoothness than the AT-F3mkII that I have now.
Thanks, Sam

Speaking for my self I 'm not entirely sure how to describe the musicality of my system. Having read a number of reviews and heard terms such as: neutral, timbre, transparent, warm, bright, and analytical used to describe audio equipment. I like the sound of my system but to describe what the equipment is producing is something as yet I am unable to do. A visitor came to my house to collect some equipment I had sold, he described my system as transparent but I was at a total loss. How long does it take before you develop an analytical ear?

AN ALTERNATIVE FUEL SOURCE

So, tomorrow I'm official a man of a certain age. I will be 51 and as Buddha once posted, "God willing and the creeks don't rise".

Last January, I grabbed this set of the clear vinyl 45 RPM Classic Records Somethin' Else LP's (actually, more like SP's - 'short playing') and decided to track how the clear vinyl held up.

(I'm going to do the same this year with their release of "So.")

I've played it once each week for the past year and it has survived the ordeal just fine.

I'm happy to report the discs sound about the same as the first time through.

hey all,

i had a cambridge 540p phono preamp which i was happy with...until it quit working

so obviously just because it broke i've been looking around at some other options around that price

read good things about the Musical Fidelity V-LPS and the Pro-Ject Phono Box II

any opinions or advice would be very welcome

here's my system:

Epos ELS 3 Minimonitor
Cambridge 540a amp
Rega P1 - upgraded with glass platter
cartridge - Ortofon OM2 Blue
