| Review: Technics SL-1200Mk2 Turntable I finally decided to order the power supply from Kevin at Kab. After reading a number of articles about the merits of a better regulated power supply, my curiosity got the better part of me. Having previously a turntable with a cogging AC motor an... | |
| Review: Technics SL-1200Mk2 Turntable If you have a Rega 250 arm - you must try this simple modification I tried today & will never take it off. The difference is night and day ! I posted my remarks on the TWL thread.:http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?eanlg&1032024188&am... | |
| Strange Tonearm Tweak. Long Well, I bought a modified RB250 from a member who asked if I tried the TWL hifi mod. I said no but read the whole 23 pages printed out on this thread... I went & got some Blu tack (its called Fun Tack in Canada & sold by Lepage).But I coul... | |
| Review: Technics SL-1200Mk2 Turntable Well I finally got the Origin Live arm board to fit a Rega 250 on the 1210. I installed a Carda rewired RB250 with the Michell weight.The board comes with instructions easy enough to follow. For any of you attempting to open the turntable, I simpl... | |
| Review: Technics SL-1200Mk2 Turntable 'Few upgrades in audio will ever have the full benefit, as opposed to buying in at a higher level.' Consecutive upgrades and trading up has mostly not been cost efficient for me. But I have a lot of pleasure doing it. I once made a custom Oracle t... | |
| Review: Technics SL-1200Mk2 Turntable I found out about the fitting an arm on the Technics at the Origin Live web site.(www.originlive.com). In the shop section, go to the tonearm section - there at the bottom, click on the 'click for options'. There you will see the DJ armboard they ... | |
| Review: Technics SL-1200Mk2 Turntable Possibly, but what is the price of a P5, the VPI scout or an entry level VPI ? I suspect at least double or more than the sl1200/10. The scout goes for $900 dollars or $1600 with the arm. Now the Rega P5 is some $2,000 and has a glass platter and ... | |
| Review: Technics SL-1200Mk2 Turntable Thank you for your comments,Possibly this ''quavering'' needs another listening session... listening to other quality recordings.As far as the Maplewood 2 inch brass heavy feet, the effect is very noticable as I have previously written...Will defi... | |
| Review: Technics SL-1200Mk2 Turntable I finally also got the Mapleshade brass heavyfeet with M6 thread. This replaces the 3 inverted metal cones I was using in lieu of feet. I also use the acrylic platter I made & vibration absorbing cheap silicone buds& strips I bought at the... | |
| Review: Technics SL-1200Mk2 Turntable Reading about sound dots applied to the tone arm counter weight and other people coating the arm with liquid latex to absorb the vibration, I tried something possibly similar yesterday. I went to the hardware store in the section that sells variou... | |
| Review: Technics SL-1200Mk2 Turntable Quote :''I now have mine mounted on 4 Mapleshade 2 inch high Heavyfeet with M6 threads screwed tight into the four corners.''-----thanks Blmcycle, I just ordered 4 of the same from Mapleshade....Curiosity got the better part of me & the 3 meta... | |
| Review: Technics SL-1200Mk2 Turntable Very interesting Blmcycle,...What does the M before the 6 stand for?Is that the right size thread? and does it harm the thread?I would be curious to try them.I put my inverted metal cones in the cavities where the feet used to be. In the front, I ... | |
| Review: Technics SL-1200Mk2 Turntable Well, I first verified Zaikesman assertion that the acrylic mats I made were in fact floating on the outer rim of the platter. This is not the case, since the acrylic mats I made just barely touch the outer & higher rim of the platter. When I ... | |
| Review: Technics SL-1200Mk2 Turntable I just read your post and find it very helpfull.I will likely get the KAB power supply, as Kevin has already provided positive and helfull feedback on my previous questions.As for the acrylic mats I made, actually totalling 3/8 '' for both, the so... | |
| Review: Technics SL-1200Mk2 Turntable The acrylic platters I made for the 1210 are really 4.5mm each. Both come to 9MM or 3/8 '' for BOTH platters. |
