| Upcoming Technics SP-10R (100th Anniversary Model) Anyone can share the drawings of the custom made tonearm pods for Technics EPA-500 or EPA-100mk2 tonearms? | |
| Upcoming Technics SP-10R (100th Anniversary Model) @inna I saw Nakamichi Dragon still makes $1500-2000 on auctions, i think i was in high school when there were available from local pioneer dealer for astronomic price in the early 90s. My own cassete deck was pioneer from the same dealer, still go... | |
| Upcoming Technics SP-10R (100th Anniversary Model) @inna i got reel to reel recorder from my gradfather, i’d love to stick to the R2R tapes, but it’s impossible to find the recordings of my favorite bands, i can’t even imagine how i can find any tapes if it’s not mainstream bands and even vinyl is... | |
| Upcoming Technics SP-10R (100th Anniversary Model) Dear AllDon’t forget that it will be 100 YEAR ANNIVERSARY REFERENCE CLASS MODEL from Technics, not just a serial model for mass market. It’s hard to believe that such model will cost less than 15k, probably higher. Maybe lower class model also wil... | |
| Best value $1500 TT and cartridge. Technics SP-20 Direct Drive ($600-750), Victor UA-7045 tonearm ($450-600) and Victor X-1IIe ($350-450) - great set up within your budget or a bit higher. Victor tonearms and cartridges are superb. And if the budget for Technics SP-10mk2 is limited... | |
| Bent Stylus....what to do? You guys are in timeNot bad for a post from 2001 | |
| I have a Grace F9 Ruby and Signet TK 10ML on the way I'm new to Fidelity-Research cartridges, got my PMC-3 on Sony PUA-7 at the moment, need more time to listen to my favorite records with this rare cartridge, but it's completely different from the high compliance Grace MM carts. Since J.Carr said t... | |
| Dr. Feickert Protractor Baerwald and Lofgren made their fundamental publications in the first half of 20th century. Later in the early 60s Stevenson (another mathematician) has calculated a new set of parameters taking into account that on records with classical music ... | |
| Dr. Feickert Protractor @rauliruegas For me it does not make sense sacrifice 20 minutes of the recorded LP surface in favor of the last 5 minutes especially because over those 20 minutes the distortion levels goes really higher against Löfgren A or B. The answer is 45r... | |
| Upcoming Technics SP-10R (100th Anniversary Model) I've seen those ugly modern SME and other short tonearms moved toward the senter, but it's definitely not what i would love to see on my Technics turntables. Aesthetics is always important for me, not just the sound and for this reason i don't lik... | |
| Upcoming Technics SP-10R (100th Anniversary Model) @rwwear No problem with the Technics EPA-100 as you can see on my old picture, but some true "9 inch tonearms are impossible to mount because the spindle to pivot distance is too short and the mouting hole must be too close to the SP-10mk2 metal f... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? @best-goove This problem is what happens to my turntable. Same with mine as described by Lew and explained by John, would be nice to know how you will fix that. I put my TT-101 aside. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? @nandric You’re right, it’s good idea to became a retipper in the end of the day. A.J. Van Den Hul turning 80 this year! Just checked this interview with him. My Dutch instagram friend told me the price is 500 euro to rebuild with Van Den Hul thro... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? I have a few broken MM cartridges and i wonder is it worth to rebuild them, both needs a new cantilevers. In stock condition they are superb cartridges, i still have 3 working samples in excellent condition. But i don’t know what to do with broken... | |
| I have a Grace F9 Ruby and Signet TK 10ML on the way Welcome to the club, i like Grace cartridges, F-9F (Shibata) was my favorite before i tried Level II BR/MR, F-12 and F-14 LC-OFC models. Unfortunately the Ruby F-9 is elliptical, so it make sence to upgrade with SoundSmith’s Line Contact in the fu... |
