Sorry to hear about your troubles with the Enyo cable.    My Lune cable is still holding up strong, which I did not expect since the wires at the Y split are exposed. I do baby the cable and make sure not to zip it up in my jacket and to roll it up when not in use.    I actually purchased...

WOW, thanks for the detailed investigation, jackinnj! I'm sad that Pangea Audio hasn't addressed this issue yet.

Thanks for your impressions, Melon. Pretty much goes in line with my experience with the cable. I'm still using it every day on my commute to work and it's still performing great! Still, I baby the cable as they're so thin and fragile. 

It's not that surprising that you're not necessarily liking the new sound. It takes a while to get used to a change in your audio chain as you've become so comfortable with what you've been listening to. Give it some time to get used to the sound then go back to the stock cable and see if you...

Thanks for the detailed insight into the P-100. I knew it was too good to be true to have a $100 PSU be so "good." It was so hyped up by everyone, especially Audio Advisor, and I fell for it. 

You should be fine. Just make sure the cantilever and suspension are still fine. If it's sagging or loose, you may want to replace the stylus. Get a jewelers loupe at least and see if the tip is OK. I've had something similar happen to me but the stylus was just fine. :)

Came across this ad for a Pioneer SX-950 on Craigslist today: http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/ele/3174090819.html   Those blue LEDs are awful... 

Perhaps invest in a new cart like a Shure M97xe or a Grado Black. Also, you should probably upgrade your phono stage. Look at the Musical Fidelity V-LPS II. I have the first generation V-LPS and it's great. Wish I had a phono stage with variable loading but that's going to be much more expensive.

Hey, Greyson. Where'd you get that lamp for your 1200? 

  Quote:   Absolutely agree. Can't imagine a more reliable table. I love changing VTA with the collar and adjusting anti-skate with a dial. I only wish the stock arm/headshell had azimuth adjustments. An aftermarket headshell will take care of that though. :)

  Quote:   It's true that they're a bit hard to see. Took me several hours to get it aligned properly. But hey, it's free and the Baerwald alignment sounds better than the Stevenson alignment that the stock tool provides.

Trying using a cartridge protractor from Vinyl Engine. They have a bunch for a few different tables and some universal ones. The one for my Technics SL1200 worked like a charm. Sounds great!
