SUT shootout Sibelius: I am aware that this shoot-out's only purpose was to find out what actually would suit you best in your system. Which is perfectly fine. However - on some of the SUTs you've tested (Hashimoto, Lundahl, Swother), you can actually alter th... | |
SUT shootout A shoot-out with 8 SUTs and two cartridges without any mention of the source impedance nor the primary of the SUTs ........ sorry folks, but a SUT and a given cartridge do have some technical interactions between (not only... ) the cartridges outp... | |
tw acustic ac + kuzma airline Good idea, ask Thomas of TW - he will give you a totally objective recommendation. That recommendation will be based on technical aspects and prospective synergy-effects only. | |
What is the best knot for a thread drive belt ? Dear Hiho, you are right.Cheers, D. | |
Why do old tubes sound better than current tubes? There is much more to say about tubes than would fit into a thread. As was mentioned before, some tubes of days long gone by do have a unique mixture of materials in a pureness you won't find anymore today. But in Audio it all comes down to the in... | |
Why three motors? Hey Downunder, it is very simple: I have finally realized how great all TW-products (past, present and future) are.Given the fact (which many fellow A'goners here discovered before...) that I am slow and rather simple-minded, that came somewhat la... | |
Why three motors? Hi Hiho, well - thanks for posting those three 3-motor-drive contenders. They all share the very same set-up - as far as geometry goes. All using a 3-side-symmetrical approach. Somehow logic and going along with the common sense of mechanics in pr... | |
Why three motors? Hello Jea48, these motors in the TW Raven are so good, that they won't have any problem with one dead fellow (which in turn would have no friction if he should ever fail - which I can't believe would happen anyway). If one dies indeed, I am sure t... | |
Why three motors? This is typical german engineering. If one motor fails you still have instant replacement on hand..... | |
TW-Acustic Arm Mcds, let me quote myself as of January 25th in this thread:**** My new turntable? - I have sold 12 units of its forerunner (which wasn't much cheaper...) and have 3 blind orders already. So - no worries......You will have a chance to hear it at t... | |
Anyone using a Lyra Delos yet? Let me just briefly add, that - if one is really serious about VTA/SRA (whatever one likes best...), it is all about that the contact area of the stylus is "in line" with the cutting angle of the record on your TT right now.Thats why a VTA is "gro... | |
TW-Acustic Arm Hiho, no need to leave - we never actually had a discussion about the Raven TW tonearm here. Your questions and remarks regarding the M. Huber tonearms were about the only ones about tonearm design in this thread. The Thales/Simplicity tonearms de... | |
TW-Acustic Arm Hi Jaspert, I have had the chance to listen to the TW 10.5 on two occasions. Both in private set-ups ( one on a Raven AC ) and with familiar cartridges (Titan i and UNIverse).However - I do not think that anyone here would really appreciate my com... | |
TW-Acustic Arm Hi Hiho, we have similar approaches to tonearm design. The Garrard Zero 100 could have been built in all details the way Micha Huber did it now. The materials, fine tooling - everything was there 30 years back. I guess it was more likely the overa... | |
TW-Acustic Arm Hiho, the Thales Simplicity looks surely exciting, but he is not new at all.Look in the Garrard archives and you'll know why I didn't labeled the Sinplicity "new". Garrard had a similar looking tonearm - and quite similar too in technical design -... |
