| Brass Pulley for My TT I would hazard a guess that the friction of mylar belt is polishing the brass, therefore, leaving a slight residue. This is not a bad sign as the smoother the brass surface becomes, the better molecular adhesion. | |
| Talk but not walk? @cleeds No, I still believe that you are confusing hypothesis with theory. A hypothesis is a suggested solution for an unexplained occurrence that does not fit into current accepted scientific theory. If the data does not support the hypothesis... | |
| Talk but not walk? There are also those who believe they are exempt from proving their claims because science is already on their side. That may sound absurd, but it’s a common claim, as evidenced by the post from @brf just above this post @cleeds, scientific th... | |
| Talk but not walk? In some instances, knowing the theory allows one to make an informed prediction as to the outcome. There are certain laws in physical science that cannot be avoided. | |
| Why bogus retail price from some sellers? Harbeth charges a premium for some veneer finishes and that "could" account for a quoted MSRP difference. The market dictates the resale value of an used item, not the former suggested retail price, therefore, I personally do not see it as a big ... | |
| What is meant when someone says a component is lacking soul It simply means they don't like it. Same as saying the food is bland. | |
| How good is the Artisan Fidelity Lenco 75?? IMO, $6000 for a Artisan Fidelity Lenco 75 with the Origin Live Conqueror MK3 tonearm is a fair asking price. Artisan Fidelity tables are works of art and there is a premium price associated with that level of fit and finish. | |
| Tube test numbers - what exactly do they mean Call Tube Depot they are very accommodating and they are one of few Dealers who have a proper 845/211 tube test that applies over 1,000+ volts to the plates. | |
| Calling all Oracle TT owners. I've used both a Grahm 2.2 and an Alphason Hr100s with excellent results. No too heavy, therefore, it did not throw off the sprung balance. | |
| Any Way To Damp Ringing Stands Without Adding Weight??? Although not reversible, I know a few DIY stand/rack makers that use expanding spray in foam (available at any hardware store) to dampen hollow tubes. | |
| Which pickup do I sell, which do I keep? Why not just get another FR 64 headshell? | |
| Manley snapper vs Atma-sphere M60 Both are quality amplifiers made by reputable companies. You really need to see if you can get an audition because it will come down to your personal preference. Nice problem to have..... | |
| PCX Invoice Why not get a quote directly from PCX listing both the cost and what is involved in the upgrade? Seems simpler and more relevant with respect to current pricing and components used. | |
| Cary 805 AE-do they go low? I’ve heard the Cary 805 driving the Zu Def4 and the sound was incredible. The Zu Def4 have a built in powered sub woofer, therefore, the low output current demand that is required to provide deep bass in provided by the internal class D amplifier... | |
| Elrog 300b's for sale. Your thoughts? WE 300B 5-year warranty is based on a declining scale in which WE will provide a replacement for defective tubes based on a percentage of the current retail price. Year 1 – Free of Charge Year 2 – 20% of then current Retail price; Yea... |
