In the March 2008 <I>Stereophile</I> (Vol.31 No.3), I <A HREF="http://www.stereophile.com/integratedamps/308cay">wrote favorably</A> about the A-50T integrated amplifier from the Chinese company Cayin Audio. I was very impressed with its sound, appearance, and construction quality for the price: $1295. This positive experience led me to look into what other products Cayin's importer, VAS Industries, distributes here. More often than not, when a keen ear imports an interesting product into the US, that ear has also heard the good sounds of other products, as attested by the diverse product lines of distributors such as Music Hall and Sumiko. It turns out that VAS distributes Chinese loudspeakers made by Aurum Cantus, including seven two-channel models. I chose the entry-level design, the two-way V2M bookshelf speaker ($1890/pair), which combines a ribbon tweeter with a dynamic mid-woofer cone.

Cleaning up an old cartridge

Hi All, It has been a long time since I have been here but getting the bug back to use the old Dual 521 and Yamaha YP 450 turntables.

Both tables have fairly new Grado cartridges but I have old Stanton L747 and Ortofon M20FL cartridges that I would love to try out.
My question is, how would I clean them to remove any old build up of oxidation to get the best I can out of these?

What gave you the bug?

I was just wondering what gave most audiophiles the bug to pursue sonic excellence? For me it was hearing my friend Mike's system. He put on one of my favorite CD's (Romantic Warrier) and I heard things that I never heard before. We then went through a whole bunch of CD's that night listening to well beyond 3AM. That's when I knew I had to upgrade and started to read Stereophile and other trade publications.

Beware The Ides Of March...and other cheesy guilty pleasures!

Hey well, I'm a friendly stranger in a black Sedan
Won't you hop inside my car?
I got pictures, got candy, I'm a lovable man
And I can take you to the nearest star

I'm your vehicle, baby
I'll take you anywhere you wanna go
I'm your vehicle, woman
But I'm not sure that you know
That I love ya (love ya)
I need ya (need ya)
I want ya, got to have you, child
Great God in heaven, you know I love you
