Visit the Wonderful World of Analog Raul Style
It has come to my attention that the web page may contain images that look "out of screen size" for some. When I view the site, it looks fine and loads fast. I am a bit of a novice when it comes to web page building and my real concern is that bec...

Raul is, without question, passionate about audio. Excess is clearly a judgement call. ;-)Ray, WOW was my first reaction, as well! :-)

Anyway, aren't "Sirius/XM" and "Reference" oxymoronic terms? Well, maybe not in relative terms.... 
Cartridge set up questions - Spacedeck / Space arm
1) Follow Ozzy instruction regarding the lead2) Borrow or buy a different cartridge for comparison3) Assess your phono stage and amplificationI doubt very highly that your issues are table or arm related. Having experience with the Spacearm, I hav... 
Acoustic Signature Final Tool & Origin Resolution
Aside from sonic issues, I was sorely disappointed in the "fit and finish" of the earliest OL tables. Can anyone comment on whether this aspect has improved? 
How Big is Your Music Collection
Jack, I'm thinking of installing a sign above my front door:"Public Library":-) 
Cartridge set up questions - Spacedeck / Space arm
I thought the 10X4 was 6.6 gr. Anyway, there are better cartridges for the Spacearm and I might consider going that way before buying a new weight. 
Cartridge set up questions - Spacedeck / Space arm
I'm not sure what you have there, Kent. One of the Spacedecks that I had, I sold locally, WITHOUT an arm (my son has the other). I sold the Spacearm separately, so I doubt that you have the same table AND arm. At any rate, I used a XX-2 (8.0 gr) o... 
Cartridge set up questions - Spacedeck / Space arm
Upon reflection, your 3db difference is likely alignment and not azimuth. How did you determine the 3dB difference? I am MOST interested in why you cannot achieve proper VTF. This seems wholly implausible. 
Cartridge set up questions - Spacedeck / Space arm
There is quite a wide range of VTF adjustment on that Spacearm. I find it difficult to fathom a modern cartridge which would not work in that respect. There is, of course, a brass cylinder within a black semi-sleeve just behind the arm pivot. This... 
Music Hall MMF-5 SE
Oh, the 1200 qualifies as a quality table and is head and shoulders above the Rega and MMF, IMHO. While it would not be MY table of choice, don't look up at the eyes that look down over their noses at this table.If you have that Pass gear, I'd STR... 
New motor for Nottingham Interspace
Well, I suppose there is always some benefit in taking AC out of many equations. Whether you will notice a difference between the Interspace motor and a DC motor or if any such difference would be discernible, thereby justifying the cost, is debat... 
New motor for Nottingham Interspace
Before giving up on that motor, which should last a very long time, I'd check a few things, for starters. Not certain of what kind of noise you refer to, but here are some possibilities. Make sure that the groove in the motor pulley and the platte... 
What haven't you listened to in a long time, but..
Yea, that East/West is a good un. I actually gave my copy to a fellow awhile bach and, for variuos reasons, wish I had kept it.I've recently broekn out a bunch of Soul LP's. "Round 2" by the Stylistics is just a flat-out must, if yer inta that!
