| Channel D Lino C vs. Sutherland Little Loco I forgot to add a link to picture gallery of 47 Labs Phono Cube and Power Humpty.There is also cheaper version called Shigaraki 4718 (on top of the expensive 4712 here, not sure why there are coaxial "in", it must be RCA).This is phonocube with on... | |
| Channel D Lino C vs. Sutherland Little Loco @chakster Many thanks for you detailed reply. I have completely misrepresented, and severely underestimated your extensive collections of MM and MC. The MC list you posted will be a guide to me. Though I am curious, there are a few in the list, ... | |
| Looking for some help with my TT journey.. Records are looping.. Clean your stylus tip with dry brush (or Onzow), use magnifying glass to check the diamond. Lower the tracking force (within recommended range) and try again. Try different records | |
| Channel D Lino C vs. Sutherland Little Loco His moniker should be Raul Junior.However he is not younger Raul but new Raul.Being probably 40 years younger that Raul I still can’t hear a distortion in your systems, only Raul can hear it all the way from Mexico. So I must disappoint you, even ... | |
| Channel D Lino C vs. Sutherland Little Loco A provocative post, you know that everything Chakster owns is the best ever made.... until his next purchase.@dover You know more about my next purchase than myself? Because my best list of cartridges does not changed. I’m open for new discoveries... | |
| Channel D Lino C vs. Sutherland Little Loco @chakster , unless you have no music recorded after 1985, of course you listen to digital on your system. The DAC is before the phonostage instead of after the file.Luckily I don’t care about most of the music recorded even in the 80’s. 90% of my ... | |
| Channel D Lino C vs. Sutherland Little Loco @ chakster I know you have been long time advocate of the virtues of MM’s and NOS MC’s. And I do recall coming across threads where you mentioned 47 Labs electronics, but did not know until now it included their current mode phono stage. I have a ... | |
| Refurbish Fidelity Research Tonearms You’d better find Lustre GST-801 tonearm, cheaper than 64s or 64fx, but this Lustre is excellent tonearm and already have VTA base on the fly (while for FR this base alone is $1500 secondhand). | |
| Channel D Lino C vs. Sutherland Little Loco Another great current-injection type MC phono stage for low impedance cartridges is 47 Labs Phono Cube *more in this thread | |
| LYRA DELOS CARTRIDGE TOO BRIGHT, THIN AND SHRILL SOUNDING tt81 is ok... 200 300 ish good condition. I just bought 2 for my friends TT-81 is cheap, but reference class TT-101 is always broken and always listed as junk with no return. Repair of tt-101 cost nearly $2k and can tale a year in the USA (if you’... | |
| LYRA DELOS CARTRIDGE TOO BRIGHT, THIN AND SHRILL SOUNDING jvc tonearm ua 7045 and TT 81 101 works extremely well with it. which easy and cheap to buy. very analog. resolved. powerful and musical combo. Victor TT-101 is not easy and not cheap to buy :) First of all: the Victor TT-101 in perfect working co... | |
| Sota or Technics I swear I can’t hear any noise from my turntables, they are dead quite and in this discussion I don’t want to talk about bad turntables, I know they are exist somewhere, but not in my world (I don’t use them). And I agree that a good turntable can... | |
| Rega Planar 3: Is the Exact a significant upgrade from the Elys 2? Rega cartridges are not worth it, but they made tonearms without adjustable vta to push their own matched carts with it. Actually, a cartridge from respected cartridge manufacturer can be much better than Rega own cart, but you might need a spacer... | |
| Next step in Turntable Some Solid Tech feet are similar to Isonoe that I am using under my pair of Technics turntable in my second (not main) system. | |
| Sota or Technics Cutting Lathe is also a turntable, but I doubt anyone can say “this Neumann cutting lathe is warmer and more dynamic than Skully cutting lathe”. The function of a turntable drive is to rotate on constant speed, period. The warmth or brightness com... |
