| Room Ceiling Height for 2 channel listening - is taller always better? I have a room that is 10' X11'..saving grace is that it has a vault ceiling to 13'. With room acoustic treatments, it is quite good. | |
| FINALLY-a cheapskates US cleaner? @tablejockey It's early days yet, but yes, I do think it works as well as the Kirmuss. Better in that it cannot damage your record. However, I did hear some of the pops and clicks that have been mentioned on other forums after i cleaned one LP th... | |
| FINALLY-a cheapskates US cleaner? I just acquired a Humminguru. This after having demo'ed a Kirmuss. The Kirmuss is not a bad machine, but its slot loading mechanism can lead to record damage! This is not the case with the new Humminguru, which i think seems to work as well as the... | |
| What Record Clamp for LP12? I think record clamps are a 'no no' with the LP12, for all of the reasons mentioned so far. IMO, if you need a record clamp, there is a big possibility that your record is warped, if that is the case, you are simply adding a band-aid to the proble... | |
| Interesting information from Analog Planet on Stylus Cleaner Onzow Zero Dust. My biggest questions to MF, which have NOT been answered, is regardless of whether the Onzow leaves a deposit on the stylus ( which IMO has NOT been absolutely proven yet) is a) is the stylus deposit in any way detrimental to the stylus life, and ... | |
| Turntable upgrade recommendations: SME vs AMG vs Technics vs other There are a lot of really good TT's available at your budget. Basis makes some superb models, as an example. TW Acoustic another. The top of the line Linn LP12 Klimax should also be in contention if you want a superb suspended table. Unfortunate... | |
| Onzow ZeroDust reportedly leaves a residue I have a US cleaner, used it for years before one of the analog gurus decided it was no good due to the possibility of it destroying a coil...guess what, i still use it! Only problem is it has never really been able to get off all of the 'baked' o... | |
| Onzow ZeroDust reportedly leaves a residue Coincidentally, the issue was brought to light just in time for Wally tools to alert us that they are going to be bringing out a stylus microscope…specifically to check for exactly these type of issues……….. | |
| Interesting information from Analog Planet on Stylus Cleaner Onzow Zero Dust. @jerryg123 it it is very strange…. a strange coincidence….with regards to Wally tools. You aren’t connected to them…or are you? | |
| Interesting information from Analog Planet on Stylus Cleaner Onzow Zero Dust. @terry9 or perhaps none of the above, and none of them heard any degradation at all. ..:0) | |
| Interesting information from Analog Planet on Stylus Cleaner Onzow Zero Dust. @terry9 There are many folk here who have used Zerodust for years, do you seriously think that none of them would have noticed major build up of goop by now that someone would have heard a difference in SQ??? | |
| Interesting information from Analog Planet on Stylus Cleaner Onzow Zero Dust. "I am sure that is what started the investigation...." How would you know this??? | |
| Interesting information from Analog Planet on Stylus Cleaner Onzow Zero Dust. Over the years we have heard from numerous ’experts’ in the analog field that there are all kinds of ’no no’s’ when it comes to stylus cleaning. I clearly remember those very same people telling everyone that the Last Stylus cleaner can migrate up... | |
| Moving away from inefficient/low impedance speaker in order to move to a Tube Amp Folks seem to forget one very important factor when choosing an amp, tube or ss, and that is the quality and ability of the transformer. This, IMO, has more to do with the drive capability than just about anything else. The amount of watts/ch is s... | |
| Looking for thoughts on Sonus Faber speakers IMO, there are basically two different sounds to the SF camp. The original speakers designed by Franco Serblin are to my ears more accurate to the sound of live voice and strings. The newer sound, after Franco, are more forgiving of upstream error... |
