In Reply to: RE: What cartridge to complete system; AR-XA, AR Integrated, AR3's posted by SpotcheckBilly12345 on May 18, 2017 at 08:03:34:
My intent is to see what the combo sounds like for curiosity due to its place in audio history. I have both tube and solid state McIntosh as well as other high end equipment. I did refurb the Amp with better diodes, upsized power supply filter caps and polypro coupling caps but I don't expect it to match my other stuff. Likewise the AR3's are unlikely to match my Yamaha NS-1000's or Thiels. The XA is no match for my TD-124 or TD-125. I do expect the system to sound better than decent and am doing it for the fun of it. No parade to be rained on.
