| Magnetization & Demagnetization any conclusions? That is how I would describe it. Lower noise floor which allows one to better hear separation of the notes and stuff. This is definitely in the realm of insanity and one will get much more of an impact by properly cleaning their records. But I fin... | |
| Graham Phantom B44 2 or Taela ? Hi Sunnyboy,Sounds like the Triplanar and Talea need to swap 'table positions, but I understand that would require re-mounting both. Glad you are enjoying the music! Alas, I have a few more weeks to wait. :-( On the other hand, I'll have a new XV-... | |
| How can anyone afford this ? And here I am just worrying about paying for retirement in a few years. ;-) I think if paying for this hobby was what was bothering me then I would get on my knees and be thankful. Very thankful. | |
| Low-end match for JBL 2441 horns Hi Csontos,I'm using that driver now with edgarhorn 500 Hz tractrix. I am using a 15" EV driver in the edgarhorn titan II mid-bass 80Hz horn. I use Bruce's 35 Hz bass horn with a jbl 18" driver. Mechan's recommendation is right on. Also, ask over ... | |
| How important is the tonearm? I've been down this road before with you, paperw8. Tap,tap! That would be the sound my head would make as it hit that same brick wall as the last time. No thanks, I really don't care what you think you know. | |
| Benfits of upgraded connectors Yes, indeed. No connector is better than any connector. We use connectors because they make life easier, not because they improve the sound. | |
| Lyra Dorian vs unipivot tonearm Ah, I think that is only differentiating tonearms that pivot in some fashion vs. linear trackers. The "rigid bearings" part is the key. | |
| How important is the tonearm? Paperw8, most any tonearm is a complex system in itself. Sorry, no easy answers.Tapping. Here we go again. | |
| How important is the tonearm? You aren't a real Audiophile.And proud of it! :-) | |
| Hi efficient speaker, bass problems My question for you guys is what is having the most affect on our perception? More even pressure front? Or simply better stereo effect?I have experienced the localization Wes is talking about and at frequencies below 80 Hz, which is where some cla... | |
| Benfits of upgraded connectors Well, I admit I don't know exactly why they sound different. But I do know that I can easily hear the removal of a 4 ohm resister from my crossovers, and removing connectors is an even greater change in clarity and depth although they measure much... | |
| How important is the tonearm? Yes, it is all important. The table, the arm, the cart, the wiring, etc. However, the OPs question was not "what is more important". He simply asked "how important is the tonearm". If they asked "How important is the table?" My answer would be the... | |
| How important is the tonearm? Ah, I see. We're not thinking apples and apples. Have you heard a modern, mass loaded, non-suspended table? I'm not talking about Rega, Denon, etc. | |
| Benfits of upgraded connectors You guys must practice this. ;-) I don't disagree that I can not hear any difference between chassis mounted connectors, and no doubt there is a lot of bullshit, over priced accessory items. There is benefit to buying the $5 set, rather than the $... | |
| Benfits of upgraded connectors Can you hear the difference between silver and copper? |
