Removable headshells 101 Dear Henry, it's not just the headshells ..... the headshell wires and tag clips are - due to extreme variations in contact pressure and material - contributing or distracting a lot to/from the sonic performance.Here the signal is the most tiny on... | |
Schröder Tonearm Which calls for Johann Wolfgang Goethe's immortal spark of genius manifested among others in "Du gleichst dem Geist den du begreifst, nicht mir" - there is of course an english translation, but it can not really grasp the true spirt. However - her... | |
Removable headshells 101 Dear Henry,sure - the fixed mounting holes of the AT-LH18 aren't the smartest of ideas.The firm circular grip of the actual headshell around the throat tube is however very good and extremely solid. And gives extremely versatile adaption to overha... | |
Removable headshells 101 Dear Raul, you know very well that there is no way on this earth that I could proof something so that you would agree wholeheartedly. It is just plain not possible. Just as I am unable to proof anything to you, - so are you vice versa. So where is... | |
Removable headshells 101 Dear Henry, a few really good headshell ? O.k. let me suggest a few:- if weight really matters and has to be really low: Orsonic AV-1.- if weight should be low, but not that low: Orsonic AV-101 or Stability Titan- if weight not that much issue: AT... | |
Schröder Tonearm The quality of sonic performance, as well as beauty, is always and only in the ear and eye of the individual subjective beholder. This is both - the blessing and curse - of audio components and their status. | |
Uni-Protractor Set tonearm alignment Dear Mesael, thank you - especially for your good minded advise ..;-) ... I really appreciate.Cheers,D. | |
Uni-Protractor Set tonearm alignment Dear Geoch, tonearm geometry and thus optimized alignment is indeed predictable. The mere geometrical parameters of a given tonearm do show which calculation curve is suited best to its inherent design.However - I do not want to stress that point,... | |
Uni-Protractor Set tonearm alignment Dear Geoch, sorry - but but I was hopping for a clarification about those guru settings & uknown methods of unique geometry alignments...(?) is certainly not the way I want to attend things and I do not want to be addressed.This is about atten... | |
Uni-Protractor Set tonearm alignment Dear Geoch, Raul and I agree here to a large extend. I have not "discovered" any "paradox" here. I just questioned the universal used baerwald IEC as I know from personal experience with many tonearms and from a large record collection with many s... | |
Uni-Protractor Set tonearm alignment Hi Blammy, no customer request so far for a special Raven template. And yes, the Löfgren B is readily availalble for both DIN and IEC ...;-) ...Thank you, D. | |
Uni-Protractor Set tonearm alignment Dear Geoch, hardly any of the japanese tonearm designs of the 1970ies or 1980ies had Baerwald IEC calculation curve in mind. People look up Baerwald IEC distortion curve readings on VE and since they deliver the lowest reading at the 3 distortion ... | |
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Lewm, indeed. It's not tube vs transitors. Both can deliver top results. One can design a solid state preamp to sound romantic and "tubey" (ever heard an original Kaneda ss ? More romantic sound than you will ever hear from any tube based des... | |
Uni-Protractor Set tonearm alignment Dear Downunder, you are right. Baerwald IEC isn't always and a priori the best calculation curve for every tonearm. It is good for a 9" tonearm designed according to Baerwald IEC ( that is it's off-set angle ) and tracking mostly records cut follo... | |
Uni-Protractor Set tonearm alignment Dear Curio, the UNI-Protector positioning arm has a round reticle locator - that way you can locate the exact pivot center of the tonearm by optical "locking in" the outer boundaries of the round bearing house. That is done without touching the Gr... |
