    Magico A5 vs S3 MkII

    Sorry if this has been asked. Has anyone compared the A5 to the S3 MkII? I'm curious as I have seen a few pair of S3 MkII come up for sale as people are moving to the new S3 version.

    Breaking in gear. Does one really notice/remember a change?

    OK I know this might start a firestorm but hopefully it will not. I have been in the crazy hobby more years than I want to count. The one thing over the years that seem to be constant is the good old "gear needs to be broken in to sound it's best". Now I'm a believer that gear sounds...

    Friend can't register

    I have a friend who is trying to register on WBF. He is stuck at the question "Can you spell?". He said he typed, yes, but the site says something like invalid format. What is the correct response? I believe he even tried No as an answer but still no luck.

    How do you select a cartridge?

    I'm in the process of buying a new TT setup. I might even pick up a used Aesthetix Io preamp from a friend. My question is how do you decide on a cartridge.

    Used Genesis 300 - Should I buy

    I'm looking at a pair of Genesis 300 as my next speaker. Anyone have any experience good or bad with them? I'm trying to decide if I should save up for a newer version of Genesis speakers or not. I could grab these for around 8K. Thanks
