Does removing anti-skating really improve sound?

UWSo the previous post dealt with the mechanical. We also have the electrical, and IMO, the Technics SL10's internal preamp quality and condition is suspect, and its artifacts heard in the more resolving system/room. I can see the DIY Audiophile b... 
Linear tracking turntables, whatever happened?
uberwaltzfwiwIn the past I have found that the more resolving a system becomes, the more it can highlight set up errors with vinyl. So many moving separate pieces. If it is happening with all the records, and not just a few, and the other room was...

Good call pkvintage. Enjoy the Music. For the benefit of the readers, here is a picture of the heavier Mag arm wand that would work best with that Denon cart. https://photos.app.goo.gl/L7fEPzN9j8vFZfmQ9If I was in audiophile mode, I would be almo...

LewmDuring this back and forth about the ET2, I was wondering more how the DL103 would work with the ET2 than I was about the ET2/Linn combo.Lewm, et al Bruce Thigpen has done extensive resonant frequency testing and offers different armwands, I ...

Hi Tim (Flemke) Both pieces will add weight to your setup over the Carbon Fiber. (probably not recommended if someone is mounting an ET2 on a Linn LP12) You will be tempted to add the joint (Gooseneck) first (quicker to do), but to do proper "audi...
