| Which tonearm with a Soundsmith The Voice? Preamp is Air Tight ATC-1 or AUdible Illusions Modulus 3. Power amp is a pair of Wavelength Gemini. Speakers are Cain & Cain Single Ben. Many times sound requires use of my Rel Storm III sub. | |
| Or is it the wine? The system has to be good. High end has its branches where you have to mix components wisely, specially in analogue, but also relationships between speakera and amps are important, etc. Yes, wine is good but I think it is better if the equipment i... | |
| Uni-Protractor Set tonearm alignment Does anybody know the right parameters for the VPI Memorial 12 (original) tonearm? precise information regarding any and/or all parameters will be appreciated. I have never been able to achieve the arm's offset with the cartridge which makes me th... | |
| SUT for Lyra Clavis Evolve 99 Flyfish2002, is there any reading you can recommend in order to learn the "math" and theory that you seem to know well? thank you | |
| SUT for Lyra Clavis Evolve 99 I think the rest of the explanation of the MC-4 is interesting perhaps it is the solution, if a bit too expensive. Thnak you | |
| SUT for Lyra Clavis Evolve 99 Using the Clearaudio Stradivari with the 40 ohms tap (10x voltage) seems perfect "on paper" as Flyfish2002 explains it but as he says it is going to be difficult to find a transformer for the Lyra. The problem is the volume pot of the preamp has t... | |
| SUT for Lyra Clavis Evolve 99 I don't know the price of the Nagra equipment but I guess I am more into buying a SUT for cost savings. I have a perception of Nagra being expensive equipment. | |
| SUT for Lyra Clavis Evolve 99 The Air Tight ATC-1 preamp doesn't offer any adjustment in the phono stage loading or capacitance. I have read of people changing the 47 kohm resistor in other preamps assuming that the ATC-1 has one which I bet it does, but I have never played wi... | |
| SUT for Lyra Clavis Evolve 99 Sorry I shuld've said all SUT's specified with lower IMPEDANCE are designed for low output voltage cartridges(the low impedance sut's higher gain charaacteristic is appropiate with these)and the Lyra is a medium output cartridge therefore the volu... | |
| Electrical problems? This is new:When the tip of the neddle touches the platter you hear noise. A new noise. It clearly goes away when you lift the neddle from the platter. Or the record. Basicaly, the grounding of the turntable I think has been done. There is a wire ... | |
| Electrical problems? Connecting the cable from the bottom of the turntable at the bearing to the power adapter's ground terminal didn't help eliminate the hum. The system is humming as hell when switched to phono stage; once when opening the bedroom door there was a s... | |
| Electrical problems? I spoke to Chris at Teres and his suggestion is to connect the wire from the screw at the bottom of the table which I believes connects the bearing to the power adapters ground.But he suggested that it may not be possible to eliminate the static b... | |
| Electrical problems? I have checked the cartridge clips and their connection appear to be allright. As far as the internal wire of the tonearm I haven't ventured to dissasemble it. I could try and use another arm wand and discard the wiring in the arm wand as the one ... | |
| cartridge for Eminent Technology ET2 tonearm? I ordered the DL-103R from Action Accessories in Linden, New Jersey. It will take 14 days to get here they told me. I read somewhere about a place called phonophono with excellent prices but I believe it is in Europe.As far as cartridge loading, I... | |
| cartridge for Eminent Technology ET2 tonearm? I ordered the Denon DL-103R cartridge based on your advice, folks, thank you, sincerely.I really don't want to spend a lot of money in this and I am happy to "hear" that technically it won't be a mismatch.Just what I needed to hear!!!!!And I will ... |
