| why do we argue? It is funny to watch how some get so serious, and others don't. | |
| why do we argue? You're right, Bryon. I forgot this was "arguments". | |
| why do we argue? Why do people want to get philosophical in a hobby forum? :-) | |
| why do we argue? Read Jburidan's post. Then read it again. That's all you need to know. | |
| Soundsmith Straingauge SG-200 cartridge system Choosing a Denon 103 over an Orpheus. There really is no understanding what other people hear. | |
| why do we argue? No, it isn't. Bumbling twits. ;-) | |
| why do we argue? I'm sorry, you've come to Insult. Arguement is down the hall. | |
| Reducing Anti-skate On An MMF 2.2 Is the lift mechanism level? Try a little piece of emery paper on the bottom of the arm, where it contacts the lift mechanism. | |
| Active FETs vs. Step-up phono stage designs Aesthetix is all tube gain stages I believe. I believe they are all tube gain stages. I do think the mm with SUT is perhaps the "standard". However, there can be more work involved with getting SUT loading optimized. Not a big thing, just a bit mo... | |
| Stylus Drag Probably my own "dictionary". :-) I think of "stylus drag" as the potential for minute changes due to congested passages, rather than just simply friction, which is more noticeable on sustained notes. The kind of changes those of use who use mylar... | |
| Active FETs vs. Step-up phono stage designs Well, good luck to you. Don't be surprised if it gets to be somewhat of a "religious" discussion. ;-) | |
| Stylus Drag I'm not sure the discussion is staying on topic. The fact that a platter slows when the stylus is in the groove is not the same as what as referred to as stylus drag. As I understand it, I don't think it has ever been measured quantitatively. | |
| Stylus Drag Yes, a platter does store energy. Apparently, that alone is not enough to counter stylus drag. | |
| Stylus Drag If you search the forums you will find that all 'tables, regardless of drive choice, have to deal with stylus drag. Don't take my word, search. It has been reported by several designers/manufacturers. Also, as several designers have schooled me, t... | |
| Active FETs vs. Step-up phono stage designs Do you want to buy based on who wins a "discussion" of design theories, or how a phono stage sounds? There are many excellent examples of SS, tubed, w/SUT, w/o SUT, and hybrids. I know it's boring to hear but, trust your ears and try to audition i... |
