does anyone know the recommended counterweight position for the Ortofon 30 (nude fine line) stylus? I used to keep it around 1.5, but recently it's been acting up and I've lost the paperwork taht came with the stylus.

My current system is: Rega planar 3, linn k5 cartridge
Rotel ra-04 amp
Rega Elys (mk1) speakers

I now need a new cartridge. I have read good things about the dynavector 10x5 (would this be ok in my mm phone stage?)but am wondering whether it is overkill spending so much on the cartridge, i.e. is it worth it?
Any advice is much appreciated. thanks dave

Hi to everyone! Im a newbie in this world of hifi systems, and im very interested in having a nice set-up and needs your help! I have an onkyo av receiver tx-ds777,2 infinity primus 150, 2 polk audio r30, 2 bose 401 and an infinity bu2 sub. As far as i know the av receiver is designed for 6 ohms spkrs only, the infinity and the polk audios are I thinks 8 ohms. while the bose 401s are 4 ohms...would I be able to hook up these speakers to my receiver without damaging it? coz i heard that if u use a 4 ohms speaker into a 6 0r 8 ohms receiver, it would toast the receiver! Is this true?

Was sumo a good company as far as the built and sound quality of their amps, particulary their big ones such as Andromeda, The Power, etc..Thanks
