Re: A tracking weight experiment for LP12 owners

You're welcome (and it is Paolo Nobile). I just had a long distance customer bring me a turntable yesterday for a Karousel and Radikal 2 upgrade. It had been several years since he had been in and I noticed his original Ekos SE had the anti-skating set to 1.75. Figuring that meant that I had set it...

Re: Recommended network components

What port is on the GS108T is best to plug the streamer and what port is best to plug the feed from the router? Port 8 is the most musical, port 1 the least. So plug your streamer into 8 and router into 7. https://www.lejonklou.com/tips/recommended-setup/ Thank you for that!! Are you guys just usin...

Re: Recommended network components

I searched through all of the previous switch discussions and could not find any comparisons to Netgear's 5-port switches. Has it been determined that the 5-port versions are inferior to the same model 8-port versions? Is there a preferred port on these units to use? What other factors seem to matte...

Re: Sagatun and Sagatun Mono

My current system is a Linn ADSM/0, Tundra 2.5 with Harbeths shl5+. I am thinking about buying a Sagatun and perhaps later on switching my ADSM for a streamer only. On the other hand I could also get a katalyst upgrade for my ADSM and leave it like that. Does anyone have experience with a same kind...

Re: Entity MC

Just bought Gammaboy's Entity and I am excited to see how it sounds compared to my Uphorik. Does anyone have experience using the Entity with the Hana ML? Hana recommends >100 load impedance. I'm guessing 120 on the Entity would be a good place to start. Greetings, Be sure to let us know what you t...

Re: Tundra Mono Tarandus

I know watts per channel in an amplifier is not the end-all, be-all that some people make it out to be. Many people use watts per channel as the only factor in choosing or pairing an amplifier. Yet I've heard the Tundra Monos smoke much more powerful amps. I've also heard more knowledgeable people t...

Passive vs Active ATC Pro Monitors in a Lejonklou system

Any opinions on how the Tundra Monos do with ATC passive speakers? ATC recommends 75-300w of amplification, input sensitivity is listed at 85, and most people seem to think they perform better with significant power. Has anyone tried the Tundra Monos with SCM20PSL Pro or other ATC passive monitors? ...

Have you heard the 705P Jajo? I read Floyd Toole's account of a demonstration of the M2, 708P and 705P. Supposedly the audience thought they were listening to the M2. They asked when they could hear the smaller boxes. They were already listening to the 705P :) Using M2 with Tundra Mono and an analo...

Spicy take. I'd like to hear some more opinions on this subject. How well do the Rega arms integrate with the Kore and Keel
