| Is this the solution to LP static issues?? Seems to be! @audioguy85 While the felt mat probably does allow for more static build up, the issue was non-existent with the felt mat and the 317x treated RCA white dog. I happen to think that the original equipment felt mat is better sounding than any after... | |
| Is this the solution to LP static issues?? Seems to be! @1971gto455ho Uhmm..No! | |
| Honest Amp Reviews: Impossible? The real question when I read reviews is how discriminatory is the reviewer in question. Many times it would seem that the rave review, full of hyperbole,is given by the reviewer who perhaps doesn’t have a true standard that is high enough to guid... | |
| Is this the solution to LP static issues?? Seems to be! Bill, interesting question, what was in the JVC super vinyl? I was always intrigued by the fact that you could hold one up to a light source and see through the vinyl. This is apparently similar now to what is utilized in the newer MoFi one step v... | |
| Is this the solution to LP static issues?? Seems to be! @whart Thanks Bill. I think the amazing thing is that we all probably have quite a few RCA’s with this stuff added to the vinyl. I know I do.Reading your link, seems to imply that some kind of off-setting electrical charge was added in the formula... | |
| Replacing LP12 arm with Well Tempered Simplex Arm I run a custom WTA ‘Black’ arm on my LP12 Radikal D...sounds great! It is no easy task to set up, but once set up it stays that way. The benefit about the WTA is the very light weight which works well with the Linn suspension. Look at my profile t... | |
| Is this the solution to LP static issues?? Seems to be! @rauliruegas Thanks for that link, very informative. What is extremely interesting, is that whatever 317x is, it seems to have a life long effect on the LP, and IMO, one that is actually beneficial. I wonder how long Gruv Glide actually works for? | |
| Is this the solution to LP static issues?? Seems to be! I had not cleaned this particular album recently ( I had vacuum cleaned it before a few months back), and it went through the same playing ritual as all of the other albums on the table last night. I do think the formula that was described as ‘Mir... | |
| Jadis JA30 Mk2, how great??? @mozartfan Your journey does seem to be one of frustration. Just remember to tell the next owner of your Defy of all of the mods that you have done..they should be interested in that. ;0) | |
| Jadis JA30 Mk2, how great??? @samhvcc Once again, from your description of what you feel is still missing from your Jadis/Sony matchup, IMO you are still hearing a classic amp/speaker mismatch. The Jadis JA30Mk2 has plenty of slam and power with the right speaker. Will the J... | |
| Honest Amp Reviews: Impossible? I dont think a blanket statement like ALL Class D amps are junk really holds much water. BUT, having said that I do agree with the OP that there does seem to be a significant point that he has...and that is that there are reviewer's who seem to fa... | |
| Jadis JA30 Mk2, how great??? @samhvcc Color me confused. In one post you state that your JA30mk2 was not a good match to your Sony SS Ar1’s...which I can well believe as the Sony’s have a fairly nasty impedance dip at certain frequencies, now you state that the match was good... | |
| The Linn Karousel bearing. Like most great upgrades, the longer one listens, the more one hears. The Karousel bearing is no exception. Like zavato states above, if you can swing the cost, it should be on your very short list of things to do for your LP12. It is interesting ... | |
| Is this possible? @tablejockey Great assumption, as this is the preamp that he is using, and sure enough, he was unaware of the MM input! Runs the SUT into the MM input...:0) I was seriously thinking that I needed to go back to analog school...not yet, I guess. | |
| Is this possible? Ralph, that is what my impression was. So, I have asked my friend to clarify. He uses a Koetsu Blue Lace Platinum and If I remember a Air Tight SUT, which runs into his Air Tight line stage preamp...but I will confirm. |
