    Hi All, I'm new to the Lampi family. Recently acquired an SE GA3 TRP with volume control. It currently has Siemens f2a and tungsram pv4200 with TP adapters.

    Kuzma Stabi Ref 2 vs Brinkmann Bardo

    Hi All, I am very new to this forum and haven’t posted much of anything. I was looking for opinions about the Kuzma Stabi Ref 2 (with 4pt). Oddly I can’t find many opinions or reviews anywhere on this TT. I am about to buy a Brinkmann Bardo and the Kuzma popped up for 2k more than the Bardo. Is...

    Hi...New to the forum. Can I ask what 300b you switched to on your L7000?
