| Why does FM radio sound so good? I can add to this. In the vinyl era, many radio stations also used broadcast tape cartridges for a lot of content: spots, promos, jingles, news actualities and music. These look like an 8-track cartridge, but differ because the rubber capstan isn’... | |
| Tuner or Receiver yogiboyTuner technology has not changed.Oh no, this is quite mistaken. While at the low-end of the market things may be the same, there has been tremendous change at the upper-end by using DSP. There are a few tuners that take advantage of this,... | |
| Tuner or Receiver billbartuskaI have a Yamaha CR-1020 (1977 - 1980) that has an excellent tuner. You can even tune out multipath distortion (from signals bouncing off buildings)..That's interesting. Will you please explain how it "tunes out" multipath distortion? | |

| Upcoming Technics SP-10R (100th Anniversary Model) atmasphereMy only beef is that the new SP-10 has the same failings as all the earlier ones: the plinth is not set up right to accommodate a tone arm!I'm not sure what you mean, Ralph - the SP-10 was always offered as a motor drive unit (like De... | |
| Vibrapod Cone - Do these make a difference? It's never a good idea to install audio components directly on top of carpeting - it can only compromise ventilation. Anything you can do to get them off the floor is a good idea. | |

| VPI 2nd Pivot for 3D ▲ ▲ ▲ ▲ ▲ ▲ ▲ Ad hominem attack, a classic logical fallacy. Raul must be v-e-r-y frustrated today. Another example of why it's fruitless to debate with our little Raul. | |
| VPI 2nd Pivot for 3D folkfreakTo summarize @rauliruegas lengthy, incomprehensible and misspelled post"I imagine myself as the cartridge tracking the record and I thereby know unipivots cannot work"That's a fair summary. I would only add that Raul asserts his claims a... | |
| VPI 2nd Pivot for 3D billstevensonThis is a response to Raul's contention that there is a "problem" with unipivot tonearms ... It falls far short of proof in any scientific sense that a problem exists with unipivot tonearms. Yes they wobble a bit at first drop, ... | |
