Re: Chinese catridges

Will do Adrian.

I'm going to give a bit of time to play out - the manufacturer says run in is 30 hours, so I'll wait until I get there and then call it as I see it.

All still going strong at the moment anyway.

Re: Chinese catridges

Will do.

As it has been playing I've been experimenting with the loading - which is probably not a great idea until it has another few hours on it.

I'm still impressed.

Chinese catridges

I don't need another cartridge....... but not needing something hasn't stopped most of us wanting it.

Re: Quad 33/303 -- new verion being launched

Re: New preamplifier (SPL Elector)

Thanks for the link above - very nice layout alright. Do the balanced cables have a shield? I think that should be connected at one end only and just make sure the correct pin of the XLR is grounded.
