| TIGER PAW "Tranquility" (Magnetic Bearing Repulsion...) Any Good? I have a great deal of experience with this as it is a key feature of my turntable bearing design. Relieving the platter of much of it’s weight reduces friction and thus make the motor work less. This frees up motor torque towards driving the fric... | |
| Why do turntables sound different? By selecting a "thick" oil viscosity a high friction ( relatively speaking ) , quiet bearing is not only possible, it is commonplace. The usual thinking behind this design is that the bearing is more speed stable, which it is not . So, accepting t... | |
| A battle between two turntable generations. Which one is the winner? Again, I feel wow and flutter and drift contribution to excellent sound isnt as great as many believe, provided the figures are in a reasonably low range. Shopping for a table with the goal of lowest wow as the main criteria overshadows other imp... | |
| A battle between two turntable generations. Which one is the winner? Feickert Pro software. | |
| A battle between two turntable generations. Which one is the winner? Let me chime in here before things go sideways. Ultima 700 asked if I would mind a consumer review, which of course I agreed to. I had know idea what the result would be until it was published. Furthermore, I can only produce these in limited n... | |
| Turntable and Rack vibration control My footers are excellent isolators and will restore your image stability and black backgrounds. The "Record Enhancer" will further quiet things and aid dynamic contrast. https://www.anvilturntables.com/ | |
| WHAT HAS WORKED FOR YOU? ISOLATION PLATFORMS, FOOTERS, ETC. for a DAC? Hi David. Yes, the footers isolate in all directions but more so in the vertical plane. "Floating" a component only isolates. We also need to wick away vibration for an isolation/damping device to be effective. Your footers as you know are virtu... | |
| WHAT HAS WORKED FOR YOU? ISOLATION PLATFORMS, FOOTERS, ETC. for a DAC? Hi again David. PM me if you get a chance. Thanks!Bruce | |
| WHAT HAS WORKED FOR YOU? ISOLATION PLATFORMS, FOOTERS, ETC. for a DAC? https://www.anvilturntables.com/turntableMy footers are very effective isolators, fully adjustable and unique. They never promote a lean hard sound, and tend to add fullness weight and clarity. | |
| Koetsu surprise I think what many of us are saying is that ultimate neutrality or faithfulness to the recording isn't necessarily the goal. Even if perfect accuracy was achieved it would not automatically ensure listening pleasure, and we all perceive sounds diff... | |
| Koetsu surprise My newest arm boards have on the fly spindle to pivot adjustment. I have noticed an occasional improvement in sibilance and focus when dialing back and forth. My guess is that some tonearm manufacturers geometry is possibly just a hair off and th... | |
| Koetsu surprise Hey, he was the one who said "virtual". Nice system. I like that Micro Seiki . | |
| Koetsu surprise So the only system you have lives in your imagination? | |
| Koetsu surprise So Raul, what brands are you currently running to help you achieve this goal? | |
| Koetsu surprise Just curious Raul, what equipment have you found meets your criteria? Is there a particular piece you own that you are very fond of? Not baiting you, just wondering . |
