    Is there a particular test record you recommend? I've always done it be ear. Which is probably what drove me insane. :D

    Relocating to Portugal. Power concerns with full system?

    It's on the vocals not the cymbals. All on the S sound. I can get all the instruments perfect and still get squeak on the vocal Ss.

    Hey, on several LPs, and ones I know do not have sibilance, I hear. Now that I've found a better antiskate setting it is better somewhat, but still isn't quite right.

    SOTA Pyxi Settings for Denon DL-301MK2

    I tried they won't negotiate on price at all, $3500 firm. I'd pay $500 premium for their service over private sale market rate, but not $1k.

    I did find a dealer with one but they want $3500, even if I negotiate it is a full $1K over what private sellers are offering. Tough to justify that.
