| Schroder sq and the new talea We certainly will find enough phrases and epigraphs in the long heritage of literature to fortify todays audio design's fruits and let them enter the scene surrounded by golden shims of light.Honestly, as mentioned by me and a few others before in... | |
| Schroder sq and the new talea Dave, I think Atmasphere was not referring to "wear" when he noted the superior rigidity of the Triplanar vis a vis the Schroeder or Talea. This is about the ability of a given tonearm to transfer energy ( mechanically .... but it has huge sonic i... | |
| Schroder sq and the new talea I too would like to add, that between the Schroeder and the Talea it is not a choice between two but three contenders.Atmasphere is right - if one really knows how to get the best out of the Triplanar (I in fact always liked the name "The Wheaton"... | |
| Schroder sq and the new talea Lewm, sure - there are always the usual ( suspects...;-) ...) by-effects ( audio buddies, individual matrix, taste, mood, financial situation, latest internet-hype etc. ) but we can still try to eliminate as many variables as possible to enable an... | |
| Schroder sq and the new talea Dan_ed, I agree with you. An improvement ( an improvement in the mere sense of the word ... sonically spoken..) is indeed (or should be...) apparent and clearly noticeable within a mere few minutes.With tonearms anyway (even if there are souls out... | |
| Schroder sq and the new talea Jtinn, from what I have heard so far about this much talked about (before and afterwards ) "shoot-out" it displayed indeed once again that real-world fair comparison with only one variable parameter ( ... which should not be the volume...) is hard... | |
| Schroder sq and the new talea Mosin, the most important (and true genius ) thing about "thinking outside the box" (in audio) is the ability to sell it (the mere thinking and its results...) to those inside the box.......Its not the devil who is in the details but - according t... | |
| Schroder sq and the new talea Dear Mosin, we always like to think of audio components as pieces of art or the strive for excellence. In fact they are mechanical (tonearms) , electrical or mechanic-electrical devices. No art, - but either applied physics consequently executed (... | |
| The Soundsmith CARTRIGHT Interesting device - does the Cartright do measure and take into account any differences in output of the two coils of the cartridge under test ? | |
| When does analog compete with digital? Analog and digital never actually were into any competition - at least not in terms of sonic performance. If one looks on the 3 decades of digital audio in evolution and its predictable future as flash memory and download as source, it is and alwa... | |
| 12 inch Graham Phantom Syntax - did you recall why CD was such an instant success back in teh early 1980ies?2 strong points going with it which told/tell a lot about the vast majority: - remote control AND plug'n'play (NO adjustments.... CD-tweaks came later...).I guess... | |
| 12 inch Graham Phantom Aside from the - no doubt and undisputed - increase in inertia (only an important point if serious off-center pressings are played) and effective moving mass (fairly insignificant with top-flight cartridges - again for obvious reasons), the "longe... | |
| 12 inch Graham Phantom Given the fact that Graham now offers a 12" tonearm may have several reasons: - he has given some of his above statements from the early 1990ies a second thought .....- the "today's needs" have changed.- market demand.The quote that "a longer tone... | |
| 12 inch Graham Phantom Dgad, "why not 14 inches tonarms"? Because of the lack of available space on most turntables AND because the decrease in tangential error relatively becomes less and less with increased effective length. 14" and 16" tonearms were invented for and ... | |
| 12 inch Graham Phantom Dear Asa, thanks for the further hint, but my problem is with the statement itself - not so much its "origin". It lacks even the most basic traces of logic and geometry. It is o.k. with me if an audio reviewer has problems in aligning a pivot tone... |
