    Soundsmith - Otello vs. Carmen vs. Zephyr Impressions

    Hi: Has anyone listened to the differences between two or three of the mentioned carts? I have an Otello ES and like it a lot (more so than my long time Ortofon 2M Bronze). I am thinking of adding another Soundsmith, and am curious to hear from those who may have heard the Carmen and/or Zephyr...

    ADC ZLM - will it match with any of these tables/arms I have?

    Just picked up an ADC ZLM with what looks like a fair amount of tip left on it. Would love to try it out, but after reading about its delicate suspension I'm not sure if I have a match in tables/arms (I have a bunch of tables, including now the Miida T-3115 table this was mounted on). All of...

    Possibly the ultimate Pickering XSV-3000?? Perhaps??

    Hello everyone!! Recently, an AK'er was kind enough to gift to me a Pickering XSV-3000 with missing stylus and cantilever, super cool move. I sent it to Joseph on that auction site, and within 3 weeks, he put the cantilver (boron) from a Clearaudio Maestro with a micro ridge Namiki stylus...

    2M Black needle literally missing off of stylus...Options?

    I literally mean the actual stylus piece is completely missing the needle. I'll upload pics later. Almost a year ago, I bought a mint Technics 1210M5G from a pawn shop for $250, and it was a no brainer because we all know the 2M Black itself (which was included) is worth that. Sometime between...
