While brushing my teeth this morning, it occurred to me that there are significant similarities between a toothbrush and a tonearm/cartridge. The bristles would be analogous to the cartridge and the brush handle to the tonearm. In either case it is the business end of the device that does all the work. The bristles track […]
This amusing (and how often can one say this?) starts as follows: “I once saw a Nad cd player advertised in the What Hi Fi classified going for a bargain price so of i popped to Richer. When i got there they told me ” oh its sold out but weve got this one here […]

The Oracle Delphi Mk.II ($1250) is both a turntable and work of art. It is a visually stunning product, retaining a level of styling that, in my view, has never been equalled by any other audio component.

I’ve just realised that of the last 10 albums I’ve bought, 6 have had to go back due to physical damage, pops and clicks, or unbearable surface noise. In one case, 3 attempts have failed to produce a good slab […]
