Bought the Clearaudio at amusicdirect.com.
They made the mistake of sending me a 10 percent off coupon.
The unit is totally cool, light green liquid crystal display, either Hz or VAC.
Purple blue LED's. Pushbutton 33/45 (at 900 bucks, much less than a 1600 Lingo, with no installation hassles).
Seems to sound good. Here's the rub: I'm not sure I can hear all the differences I read about with every little tweak you fellow audionuts make. What would be the best type of music to listen to to hear the differences between my wall outlet and the Syncro? Piano? Specific album I could buy? I read in the past that records shouldn't be played twice in a row, to allow for pressure deformation recovery...maybe that was an old wive's tale?
So far I've been crouched on the floor, listening through headphones and rapidly moving the turntable plug...
Well, at least I don't have to change that damn pulley to play my 45's!
