| clearaudio champion w/ unify but what cartridge? Congratulations! Two things that would help in making recommendations: What types of carts can your phono amp/stage handle (mm, homc, lomc) and what types of music do you listen to? | |
| I walked into a dealer and got a shock.... Ask if they will let you try the AR and determine for yourself. | |
| Vinyl Frontend/Linn LP12 Question Just my $.02 worth but since you are looking for "particularly dynamics, detail and soundstaging." I would give Acoustic Signature a look. I have been using their Samba TT w/ a rewired Rega 300 arm and am very satisified. When the time comes their... | |
| Spacer required for Rega P3-24 & AT440MLa? I don't know if you will need a spacer but if you do try a bicycle shop. You can get the washers for a lot less money. IMO your best bet would be to get an adjuster like this.VTA Adjuster | |
| What knot for string to drive platter? I did some research tonight and have come to the conclusion that fishing line is not the way to go. I am planning to use nylon thread (Coats brand/Upholstery from Walmart). | |
| What knot for string to drive platter? I do not know the name of the knot but, in my Acoustic Signature manual it says: "Take both ends of the string parallel and make an eye. Move both ends through the eye and then tighten it." This keeps the knot on the outside of the platter.I have ... | |
| Mismatched phono stage Your Benz MC20E was designed to run through a MM stage. Most high-output MC's work better that way. A typical MM stage will be set up for 47K ohm loading and a MC cartridge that calls for that loading will work well.If you are going to the trouble... | |
| Cartridge mounting Here is a lind to a decent setup guide.Cartridge Setup | |
| New TT/cart question I am not familiar with your setup but it is not uncommon to hear the music from the cartridge. Nothing is wrong. | |
| Give Up? Switch to a good vinyl setup. Cures all digital problems! ;o) | |
| good power cord under $200 Take a look a Zu pc's they do auctions on epay and you can get a new one at a good price.I bought their BOK and it is not quite as good my Shunyata Diamondback but way better than some others that I have tried (none of which are on your list.)If y... | |
| Crunch time:used preamps $500 What features are you looking for (phono stage, tone controls, ect.). One thing is to make sure that the preamp matches up with your amp. The input impedance of the amp should at least 10 times the output impedance of the preamp. | |
| Please,reccomend "rock" cart. for under 1K Check out the Dynavector 17D3 phono cartridge. I think that it will be my next cartridge. | |
| Humming? Here is an easy idea. Try adding a ground wire from your preamp to ground. | |
| Novice ears or unrealistic expectations? I had the same problem with running moives through my system it got so loud and the deep bass shook everything. Running an equalizer would be the ticket. You can increase the mids and lower the bass so that you can hear dialogue. Though for music ... |
