The SummitSystem edited: Yesterday, I received and installed a Zu Denon DL 103R. Amazing cartridge, and a great match for the Dynavector 501 arm. Art Dudley got it right, this cartridge is the bomb! posted about 14 years ago | View comment | |
Fidelity and DynamicsYou have made some excellent choices in revamping your system. Joseph Pulsars, VAC integrated, and arm cartridges to die for. I recently sent my old VAC PA 35.35 to the factory for an upgra... posted about 14 years ago | View comment | |

Jazz and BluegrassHi Jim,Thanks for your kind remarks. My Garrard has had a few changes, I didn't like where I mounted the tonearm, so I made an l-shaped piece of Cocobolo, and inset it into the plinth. I al... posted about 14 years ago | View comment | |
