    Well... I listened to the older model D7 Dalby record weight on my Micro Seiki turntable. It's a 3.5 pound beast . It does some things a little better than my 1.5 Lbs. Stillpoints LP 1 record weight. Too bad the Dalby weight is 2.80 mm larger in diameter than the Stillpoints...

    Modding my ARC Ref Anniversary

    Teflon tube sockets sound much better than any O Rings . If you have not heard them ... how do you know for sure?

    Modding my ARC Ref Anniversary

    Teflon insulated tube sockets , copper pins. Then throw away the O rings around the tubes , they choke the life out of the sound. Mu Metal for shielding transformers. Best IEC Inlet is: Furutech FI-O9 NCF in Rhodium .

    installing 7 Furutech GTX-D NFC (R) outlets this morning

    I am now only running GTX-D NCF (R) duplex A/C outlets. They replaced all the non NCF A/C outlets. The newer NCF outlet are worth every penny ! Very nice improvement for just changing out a plug.

    installing 7 Furutech GTX-D NFC (R) outlets this morning

    The FI 06 NCF (R) A/C IEC Inlet is a step up improvement over the stock no name junk IEC inlets. I am running all FI 09 NCF (R) inlets. Way better performance top to bottom. Yes, they have a larger back body and the mounting hole centers are farther apart.
