| Tranfiguration Orpheus description Dan,I think we were trying to say the same thing. By using a bubble level you can get the headshell to be in the same plane as the platter. I'm only looking in the x-direction of the level. Not the z-direction. This assumes everything else is leve... | |
| Tranfiguration Orpheus description Doug,That's interesting. Let me think about buying your share:)One thing I do that is helpful in identifying "close" to vertical alignment is putting a small level on the headshell while the arm is in it's resting position an varying azimuth till ... | |
| Tranfiguration Orpheus description Tim,Good question. The improvements were probably happening gradually but I heard a large change in the 160-180 hours point as if it had passed through some wall. The sound is now much more natural and pure.Based on your experience, it looks like ... | |
| Is RAVEN TABLE that good over sme or Walker? Kha,Thanks. do you knowabout the German reviewer who compared the Raven to the Acoustic Signature Mambo? | |
| Tranfiguration Orpheus description Doug,Thanks for validating my observations. The improvement from break-in is very noticeable and it feels like it is getting better by the 10's of hours now. Like it has passed a hump.I agree it would have been nice to experiment with SRA. I suspe... | |
| Is RAVEN TABLE that good over sme or Walker? Kha,I noticed how you have the Airline mounted to your Raven. How do you adjust VTA? Can the arm be moved up and down without the brass tower that is typically used with the Airline on Kuzma tables?Andrew | |
| Tranfiguration Orpheus description I wanted to give you folks an update on my Orpheus after further break-in and optimization of settings. In short it its sound is stunning! I'm loving life.After using Nsgarch's method to identify the point of 0 degree SRA I increase arm height to ... | |
| ASR Basis Exclusive or Einstein The TT's Choice All,How many pairs of inputs and outputs does the einstein have? I read stereophile's list that it has 2 pairs inputs and outputs. Is this true?Andrew | |
| VD Revelation Speaker cables - Ozzy,I would say the cables are neutral and do not exhibit an artificial sizzle in the high frequencies. As I listen to LP after LP I sometimes wonder if there is something missing, but then an LP will come on next that has extremely detailed, liq... | |
| Tranfiguration Orpheus description I think this thread (specifically comparisons of the Orpheus to the universe)has gone awry. From my listening the actual sonic differences between these two cartridges were much smaller than what people are perceiving from the comments made by Dou... | |
| DaVinci Tonearm Karl-Heinz,Thank you for your reply. Let us know how it goes. How do you like your TW Acustic? Ever listen to the Brinkman Balance?Andrew | |
| ARC Ref 3 with CAT JL2 or do you need CAT SL1 I went from a Krell FPB 600 to the CAT JL2. I don't miss the bass from the Krells. The CAT does everything better. | |
| DaVinci Tonearm Karl-Heinz,You said above that the DaVinci outperfromed the Schroeder DPS. Further above, you asked Thomashesig why he did not purchase the Schroeder Reference SQ instead of the DaVinci. Do you have experience comparing the SQ to the DV? What is t... | |
| Tranfiguration Orpheus description Kha,Thank you for your feedback. Much appreciated.Andrew | |
| Tranfiguration Orpheus description Bc3,One additional comment that I forgot to add to the previous post is that I have not experienced mistracking in my system like we did at Doug's system. As you mention, the O tracks very well in my system. |
