| Soundsmith Optimized Contour Contact Line Stylus for Rebuild I appreciate all the comments. I received the information I was hoping for. Thank you. I have heard from Soundsmith. The stylus is worn, but the suspension is OK. The stylus is OK. Not the "low rider" as I feared. So I had some choicesI hav... | |
| Tonearm Suggestions For Technics Sp15 Under 5k @chakster Thank you for proving my point. | |
| Tonearm Suggestions For Technics Sp15 Under 5k @chakster Just because the OP asked about arms doesn’t mean we shouldn't place the use of that device in the context of the implementation. After reading a number of your comments, you seem to undermine your credibility with disconnected verbosity... | |
| Tonearm Suggestions For Technics Sp15 Under 5k @dover Excellent. IMO, there are a LOT of table / arm combos for less than $5000 NEW, much less on the used market. @chakster Your suggestions are performance / quality mismatches. On that particular table, a better Jelco arm would be most satisfa... | |
| Cartridge upgrade from Benz Micro Silver OC9/II | |
| Soundsmith Optimized Contour Contact Line Stylus for Rebuild I was able to read the substance and context of the comments, raul. No misunderstanding from my perspective. I was not necessarily asking about the Lyra cart, but the question was of a more general nature. It's one thing to read marketing info,... | |
| Phono stage hum As noted above, the hum is isolated to the Manley, not the other units. Both channels. The most likely common point between the two channels is the power supply in the Manley. It could be a cap in the power supply or a different defective componen... | |
| Cartridge upgrade from Benz Micro Silver Table / arm? Phono stage? | |
| New Amps to match up with PSB T3 speakers I have been using Herron Audio M-1 amps. Very pleased with their performance. My speakers run a minimum of around 3 ohms up to over 16 ohms. I can find no audible signature or issues with the Herron amps. They are very good bottom to top and e... | |
| single driver speakers An easy entry to single driver is available at Madisound. The Markaudio Alpair 7 mounted in a recommended "Pensil" enclosure can provide a peek at the potential of single driver systems. The enclosures are easy to build and inexpensive using 3/4" ... | |
| Does anyone leave their amp and preamp on all the time? My Herron Audio M1 amps are on 24/7 unless I'm away for more than a couple of days. | |
| AT OC9/II vs AT OC9/III dodgealum - Are you still running the ART9? | |
| AT OC9/II vs AT OC9/III tooblue, I spent a long time trying to get the CdC set up. It was consistently too lean. I understand that the later generations of Lyra cartridges were much better.But that's not particular to the question. | |
| VPI ADS Versus SDS I don't miss the point, and you didn't READ my comment. MY OPINION is that speed stability is about off-centered spindle holes, not A/C frequency. I am very sensitive to pitch fluctuations and only experience them with off-center spindle holes. | |
| Turntable system The Classic 1 is a massive upgrade over the Rega. If you are getting a good deal on the VPI, start investigating how to sell your Rega. The Ikeda 9TT is a low output mc cart and will need some kind of signal boost or just use your current cartr... |
