Thanks for the useful pointer Stefanl but it studies a turntables performance in a manner with which I am familiar. In the 70s discussing turntable performance in the press on this sort of basis was fairly common.

I am still confused about dynamics. Dynamics is a good thing but the consequence of good dynamics is more structure borne sound in the tonearm. In order to dissipate this one needs to add more viscous damping. Is this correct?I realize I am wander...
