| cd player not reading a disc? Laser dirty? You can buy a laser lens cleaning cd disc at best buy for about 10 bucks. Just a series of soft little brushes on the disc. They work pretty good. I'd try that before anything else. | |
| Please help me which music is that? I have an idea. Why don't you do a you-tube humming it for us? | |
| Stylus Rake Angle Good 'transient' performance is always easily distinguishable from poor transient performance. It really is the final goal and distinguishable difference we hear when successfully correcting set-up errors. It's not a matter of our ability to isola... | |
| Stylus Rake Angle This is exactly what my experience is. Let's say we're starting at 90 degrees. If you guys claim you will see a change in overhang from a minute SRA adjustment, Because that's all it takes to go from one side to the other, then it's an inherent fa... | |
| Stylus Rake Angle Timing is referred to as a definition of transient performance as it relates to the stylus/groove contact point. The narrower the better, 'perpendicular to the apex'...or so. Hence, the 92 degree figure. Start with a parallel arm and set overhang... | |
| Stylus Rake Angle I'd say it's pretty well infinite. But the change in overhang as a result is so exponentially minute as to be irrelevant once it's been set with VTA in the ballpark. | |
| Stylus Rake Angle At those angles, the change in overhang would be on the molecular level. | |
| Stylus Rake Angle What? It seems to me your process is far more tedious. Once you've set all other adjustments, it's simply a matter of tuning in the particular record. Similar to tuning a station on the radio. You can hear the sweet spot fade in and out as you tun... | |
| Stylus Rake Angle Has the fact that both VTA and SRA measured angles change as soon as the stylus is loaded been mentioned? Also, this load changes with the depth of the groove causing more or less friction. The more cuts crammed onto the record the shallower the g... | |
| Stylus Rake Angle Doug, your final assessment is spot on and is absolute since what proper timing sounds like at the stylus tip is exactly the same as what it sounds like on all the rest of the gear individually and is a perfect reference. Perfect because the same ... | |
| The Red Green Tinnitus reducer Do you really want to go to a cheap dentist? | |
| Upgraded power supply Caps? Epcos Sikorel and Nichicon KW series are also outstanding. | |
| Audio Icon/Idol - Who would you like to meet? Yea, I heard he was ill for quite some time. He did some great things. | |
| Audio Icon/Idol - Who would you like to meet? I'd love to hang out with James Bongiorno as well. A get together with him, John Bedini, Jim Strickland, Kieth Richards and Roger Waters , not to mention a select few here would be worth going to a party. | |
| Can speakers of a certain high caliber can .... Yes, I am aware of that. Just making a point. |
