Looking for advice. Just purchased a well tempered Classic Turntable, with a carbon fiber arm and a leaded platter.Should arrive next week. Listen to an eclectic collection of records--jazz, Rock and rool, opera, symphonys, old timey, bluegrass, blues, jam band and even DJs, especially DJ rootz from Boulder CO.
Wonder what interconnects individuals are using and what other tricks individuals have learned overtime. Cartridges?
I plan to try it in my main system first (see system) to replace the analogue section, but ultimately use it as the analogue component of s new system in a mountain house--more about that latter.
Present system includes: California Audio Labs CL-15 CD Player Sota Star Sapphire Turntable Graham Engineering 2.2 deluxe Tonearm Transfiguration Temper Audible Illusions Modulus 3A Tube preamp Sonic Frotiers Phono One amp Valve Amplification Company PA-90c1 (2) Martin Logan Aerius Speaker JPS , XLO 1.1 XLO 5.1 Speaker cable JPS, NBS King Serpent lll
Thsnks for looking. Also, anyone in Tidewater VA area available to help me set it up if needed?
you'll love it. down the road you may want to think about having the arm rewired direct to the interconnects, removing the terminal block. Nice upgrade. Agree with hifiharv to definitely take your time with the setup. Would recommend a test record along with the stylus force guage.
It will blow away your Sota. Set it up carefully and be careful how and where you site it. I am assuming it doesn't have the damping adjustment like on the Reference arm, so you are relieved from all that extra tweaking. See my comments on the current Stylus force guage thread.
