[rec.audio.high-end] Proceed/LP-12 Hint

hqyy@vax5.cit.cornell.edu (10/08/90)

Hi,
	Despite all the positive feedback I have gotten about the
Proceed player, I still can't seem to make up my mind between this
player and the CAL Aria II.  A local dealer is selling a second
hand of the CAL unit for $300 (substantial amount for me) less than the
cost of a new Proceed.  Has anyone had a chance to compare these two
players side by side?  Thanks in advance.

TIP TO OWNERS OF LP-12: instead of using the supplied P-Clip to attach
the arm cable to the plinth and then trying to balance the subchassis,
don't use the P-clip and let the arm cable slide out of the opening directly
under the armboard.  Sound is much cleaner supposedly due to the inability
of the plinth to sufficiently dissipate the energy generated by the chassis
while the arm clip is constaint to it.

PS : Any ideas as to what the next batch of Living Presence CDs will be??
