| "Frightening" or "Relaxing" sound quality? Hi Jabo,hey man you got a point! Spend 100 - 200 Grand (on a speaker alone) is more frightening than ANY listening can get. (And mostly if the wife didn't know!)Well said, keep it coming.Axel | |
| "Frightening" or "Relaxing" sound quality? Hello Unsound,"VC hardened" mean you're just don't get that jumpy anymore by little tiny scary (out of the envelope) sounds, you have build a sort of mental armour. May not being politically correct, but what other starkly, jumpy, un-nerving exper... | |
| "Frightening" or "Relaxing" sound quality? Hi Mrtennis,>>> these peaks are not relaxing, but not frightening either. <<<Bet your bottom dollar that they can be --- the more everything else is right i.e. immediacy, phase, time, dynamic depth or sound floor. What I'm saying... | |
| SPU Royal N on an SME V arm? Maybe one more item of interest to report. It seem not to well known that SME makes a higher mass (+30gr) counter weight. This ain't exactly cheap being tungsten and all plus it comes in the actual housing, even though one might argue that the tun... | |
| Tracking error distortion audibility Hi Raul,nice to be able to call you by name, unlike most folk that prefer to hide behind some alias.All taken in good sprit, the point missed might be, that some folk might leave this here discourse with a major case of 'audiophila nervosa' becaus... | |
| The Blue Angel Mantis cartridge OK, maybe I should be more accommodating to a country man. What you do NOT know, because I didn't mention it, is that I had some email discourse with the man. I didn't find him too accommodating, see.But what the heck, I usually try to help were e... | |
| The correct internal-inductance of Windfeld cart.? Hi Intactaudio,I'm not making this up believe me. Firstly a 30dB trannie has a 1:31.6 ration that gives you a reflected 47ohm since your phono-pre input impedance is 47k i.e. 47k/31.6^2 ~ 47ohm.Now to the current. A trannie like a 1:31.6 has a DCR... | |
| "Frightening" or "Relaxing" sound quality? Hi Unsound,so easy to get mis-taken, eish. That link of yours just made my computer (that thing in front of me) get hang up, get stuck, is what happened. So I could not look at the page contents.What I understand, that this product is well regarde... | |
| "Frightening" or "Relaxing" sound quality? Unsound, that example of yours hangs up my box...Somebody don't like us talking about them, methinks.Now, was that a good or a not so good example?Thanks,Axel | |
| Tracking error distortion audibility Hi, just a little aside from behind the curtain as it were.SME in their misguided wisdom using the "ICE-standard" (that strangely exists for LP manufacturing at al, BUT not cart ALIGNMENTS, correct me if I'm wrong ) for their alignment happen to u... | |
| The Blue Angel Mantis cartridge OK, maybe you got a more 'intercontinental' way of thinking here. In Africa (that's were this here places are) we're marching to a slightly different tune. Send your cart oversees be lucky to get it back at all, see.That makes for a slightly diffe... | |
| "Frightening" or "Relaxing" sound quality? Really?is it my lack of awareness then? Since the two goals always seem 'somewhat' opposed to say the least. The more corrections, the more you 'screw-up' the phase AND the time coherence. Every added component causes more time / phase issues. Fix... | |
| "Frightening" or "Relaxing" sound quality? Unsound, I think you have a very good point.We, all of us, do have at least slightly different 'sensitivities' including our ears, good point.But is it only me, around here, that gets the impulse to 'flee' from a room where some -odd- sounding sys... | |
| "Frightening" or "Relaxing" sound quality? Hi all,thanks for the kind reflections and feed back. Not easy to get stuff like this across, without being perceived a bit ‘cuckoo?”I could name (but of course won't) some much banded about brands in this here circle that have this particular pro... | |
| Add Headshell weight to track better? Hi,seems I got this cart just VERY wrong, can't even blame the web no more, so it must be entirely my fault. And I sure got my private helping from Audifeil for being so daft.Good to have some watch-dog about, catch out folks that don't have their... |
