Given that the newly formed Linn products acknowledged in their first advertisement that they were now producing what was formerly known as the Ariston RD 11 as the Linn Sondek LP 12; I thought that I’d post two photos of a very rare Ariston which has the two button power switch set-up that was on […]
They say: The Silver-Ruby Omega is the high-performance version of the standard model and is differentiated from its sibling by being the chromatic negative of the standard version; instead of being a black arm with a silver counterweight, the Silver-Ruby model is silver with a black weight. This aesthetic rule is not strictly enforced, customers […]
READER 17447 writes From my long experience with hi-fi stereo systems from 1970 on it is indeed the turntable pickup including tonearm making difference in sound. Of course also the preamp with its RIAA equalization has influence especially when in early times this RIAA curve was not exactly to the spec. Even when cutting exactly […]
I have decided to buy a SME 309 or V for my Thorens TD124 project. I would be prefer the V, but 2nd hand prices are 1100+ GBP and that would be to stretch my budget to much as I also need a new phonostage. Reason for not considering the IV is that it is […]

Strathearn produced two very beautiful turntables that are THE perfect match for Lecson components! They had a revolutionary direct drive, a bit flexible at first, as it turned in both directions, BUT it did so beautifully! They also produced very good speakers that are almost unknown (with electrostatic panels) and should be almost impossible to […]
They say: Helius has produced over 15 different models of tonearm over the last 23 years and still regularly services all models, regardless of age and condition. Where parts are missing we can usually make replacements A standard service involves stripping down the arm, cleaning, checking and re-polishing bearing needles and cups, reworking solder joints, […]

I have listened to a number of carts in two different systems, and the two that stood out were the Benz Micro L2 wood and the Ortofon Cadenza Black. It is unfortunately not possible for me to compare them directly in the same system. My impressions were that the Benz Micro sounded lush and warm, […]
A member writes … “I drove home today in eager anticipation of listening to the Shelter 501-II that I bought used from Tom (see Shelter 501 Mk II). These are just some initial impressions as I listen to and get used to its sound. Comparisons are with my Dynavector DV-20X2L, both running through the CineMag […]
They say: The standard version of the Omega is mechanically very similar to the Silver-Ruby Model. The main differences being the use of tungsten bearings, copper wire and colour configuration. The standard version is anodised black with silver counterweights. Technically the arm is very sophisticated, being dynamically balanced, damped by differential masses and having non-coincident […]
