| Need advice on new TT 120 ? really ... icoremI see that as people age, they become more grumpy and mean. Complain more. Because of this, I can see my millennial fraternal twins putting out some kind of hit on me, long before 120. 8^0 The only wear items on my turnt... | |
| Turntable mat options I remember it was different effect when i touch my tonearm, staying in front of my turntable on a carpet with slippers on and off (the latest was no problem :)) So put the slippers off.That's a pretty extreme measure. I know people that really lov... | |
| Need advice on new TT icoremI swore to myself a couple of years ago to try and stick with "non-boutique" companies with products with good reselling value. That's mainly in mechanics based equipment like turntables and arms where you will not find parts when the compan... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners You sound happy with your 2.5 Pegasus. Be glad that Bruce is not based in Europe with an audiophile mentality. His prices would probably be double. 8^0 I think the manufacturer builds product, and provides general guidelines based on his/her desig... | |
| Turntable mat options Chip - have you contacted Rega direct to ask why these chose the felt mat ? The RP8 owners manual goes into a lot of "detail" on materials and resonances/matching, but it fails to even mention this "Felt Mat" . I would be interested in their respo... | |

| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Yes, and the arm will then “see” varying degrees of damping as the paddle traverses the trough. Not good.Frogman/PegasusNo not good. A case of the "tail wagging the dog" ??We are dealing with an exotic tonearm here. We go to a lot of trouble in se... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Pegasus your picture doesn't load for me. Any plusminus systematic listening impressions with the long i-beam? Ie. whether the counterweight far out (lower i-beam resonance) is preferred to less far out and a heavier counterweight? I tend to feel ... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners @pegasus re: Decca.PegasusReflecting about this review, a suspicion came up: The double tie-back thread is probably for DJ cueing reasons, but... it stabilizes ("grounds" ?) the cantilever better, and must reduce horizontal compliance.https://phot... | |
| Can you put a Krell in an apartment? Jeff, the whole power issue with the Krell 400cx and similar generation amps is very confusing and IMO, Krell is to blame. The owners manual is clear and supports what Krell told you in your original post. From the 400cx owners manual. "Make sure ... | |
| Best Way for my TT to reach my Pre-Amp!? Pick up the marantz and place it one foot 12 inches in all directions. use a temporary stand if you have to. Does the Hum change ? | |
