| Recommended FR 66 service Robert at Analog Tube Audio has been modding and saving my FR64S's | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 By the same token, estimado Raul, the tonearm I use is the one used by the cartridge designer himself - FR64S. Not to get into random walking yourself, it's good to first make sure you know what you are writing about. | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 My LDR assault continues...At 16.5k, changed VTF from 1.90 to 1.81. Opened up the sound a bit. Good. I do not dare to touch VTA as I think I’m in the sweet spot and I don’t use VTA for tonal adjustments.Keeping 1.81g, I jumped from 16.5k straight ... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 @noromance Surprisingly 47k in my circumstances (all this loading is very very ’personal’) wasn’t that sparkling. The bass was cut, which I could easily verify changing to SPU Silver Meister mounted on the same deck and well, deeply loaded. But th... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Hey @halcro :)) !I hope it is ok to post it here, could not find a better thread.I've finally tested very low (16.5k) load on my London Decca Reference, motivated by your earlier findings from may 2020" At 15K Ohms and 430pF....the cartridge simpl... | |
| EMT 75th Anniversary series... TSD75 SFL ... and a bit of history. @chakster you clearly don't understand what I'm saying. Hope EMT stopped making business on cheap rubber and uses now better suspensions. | |
| EMT 75th Anniversary series... TSD75 SFL ... and a bit of history. It is not about the stylus but the inferior suspension material used by EMT in the standard TSD15 (at least back then, some 6-7 yrs ago). Perhaps higher models have better suspensions, not a cheap rubber that decays in few yrs. | |
| EMT 75th Anniversary series... TSD75 SFL ... and a bit of history. I had TSD15SPH until the suspension gave up. Repair = 600Eu. Every 3-4 years as the rubber deteriorates. I said thank you and moved to other carts. Sounded ok, although the sound was for sure compromised by IMHO very inferior EMT929 arm. | |
| Any good tube headphones and headphone amps for vinyl playback? Blue Hawaii SE with Philips metal base EL34 + Stax 007 mkI | |
| Arche headshell with London Reference cartridge - fantastic results I second @howardalex experience. Have recently bought Arche from a friend to use with my Reference. The arm is FR-64S on EMT930. VTF 1.98g, 50k load (temporary). Previously the Refernce was mounted in (presumably original) Orsonic AV101 [16.5g] wi... | |
| Fidelity Research FR64s Headshell dilemma And I had the opposite problem to the OP - had to push Decca Reference all the way back in AV101 on FR64S at 231.5 P2S and even had to push the the AV101 loosening the azimuth screw and finally remove the gasket (anyway recommended by the FR manua... | |
| Fidelity Research FR-7 Repair Mine was repaired by Holistic Audio in Hollandhttps://www.holisticaudio.nl/Â Can wholeheartedly recommend | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Dear@frogman  LDR is indeed a v special cartridge, definitely worth considering if funds permit. BTW I think @halcro should get some $$ from London for all the promotional job he has done ;)It is stimulating (as always!) to read your impressions... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Not going much recently unfortunately - have been locked down 350km from my system. Waiting for all this to finish and comeback to experimenting with my LDR. | |
| Soundsmith - Thank you to everyone. "My father and family was from Breslau " Wrocław please @retipper |
