| Tekton Double Impacts charles1dad... regarding the preamplifier gain issue, 35 db is far too much for virtually any audio system to utilize. You’d literally have no range of the volume control i.e. one click above the 8 o’clock V.C. knob and it’d be too loud even i... | |
| Jazz for aficionados It could be a flugelhorn, which is similar to a mellophone, although they play in different keys. | |
| Stylus force digital scales doverI do agree that the deviation in VTF with dynamically balanced arms will be less than statically balanced arms on warps, but don't agree that VTF can be precisely maintained over a warp even with dynamic balancing, unless of course you ... | |
| Stylus force digital scales dover. ... Most dynamic balancing is applied with a spring which is designed to provide a restorative force to the arm. The actual tracking force at the stylus will be unpredictable and variable depending on the cartridge compliance, size and... | |
| Jazz for aficionados ghosthouseAnyone know the kind of horn Hugh Masakela is holding? Very clearly seen at 6:25 and 8:22. A variant on trumpet? It's a mellophone. | |
| Stylus force digital scales Also, if you use a dynamically balanced arm, VTF will remain constant even while playing a warped record. | |
| Stylus force digital scales lewm... gravity is a constant for any particular location on earth, however, actual VTF will vary depending upon where the tonearm is located in its vertical arc. This happens when you play a warped LP, for exampleVarying VTF while playing a... | |
| Stylus force digital scales chakster... the problem with cheap digital scales and with mechanical scales is that all of them have different thickness, normally thicker than vinyl record, so they are incorrect, because the stylus is not leveled right. Gravity is a const... | |

| Why do better MC cartridges cost a fortune? willemjAnd yet, none of them are as neutral and reproduce the original as cleanly, with as little distortion, and with as much channel separation as a cd/dvd/bd disc player of a few hundred dollars at most. As I said, such cartridges are the empe... | |
| Using contact cleaner in tube sockets jea48As a rule retubing an amp should not require sending it back to the factory or to a qualified manufacture service center. Neither of these is a requirement for the VT-100, so I'm not sure what your point is.ARC should have made mentioned in... | |
| Using contact cleaner in tube sockets jea48I have always wondered why ARC neglected to mention in the owner manual that came with the VT50, VT100, Vt100 mkll, and VT200 that when replacing the small driver and input signal tubes they would need to be biased ... Biasing the 6922 ... | |
| Question for cable/wire naysayers..... czariveyI hear differences, but don’t spend on wires more than $50/m/pair. My good knowledge of math blocks me from taking silly decision to spend more on just wires.Discussions of cables often omit two of the most important factors, imo, and thos... | |
