| Why is the price of new tonearms so high Dear Raul, sure - I have 2001 NOS samples of FR-66s on stock and am just waiting for the day their used-market price meets the US$10.000.- mark.In the meantime I restrict myself to sell off only 4-5 units each month through Audiogon.How did you kn... | |
| Establishing a common analog listening bias Dear Axel,ambient and individual details in a fairly quite audience are about the utmost low level information engraved in a record. All the other sonic details with higher level can and will long be present. The most tiny details do only come up ... | |
| Establishing a common analog listening bias Dear Raul, absolutely no problem.If you are used to and fine and fully satisfied driving every day with an old VW Beetle for pure enjoyment that is totally o.k.No need to give comments on the technical aspects and behaviour in extreme driving situ... | |
| Why is the price of new tonearms so high Dear Raul, sorry - my mistake - so far I mistook the situation. I always thought the ideas behind the tonearm project were yours, now I realize, that you are the one of your team responsible for public relations.Now that makes sense.I do no longer... | |
| Establishing a common analog listening bias Hi Axel, do lower the SME V (I know - not that easy...) until your VTA is complaint to the groove-angle - no matter what pressing of the Belafonte set. Once achieved the soundstage will open up and all a sudden the audience with lots of indiviadua... | |
| Establishing a common analog listening bias Dear Henry,I am rather MUCH more into recordings then into tonearms.The records were and always will be my center of apssion as far as audio goes.Thats why I am so fanatica about groove-cut-angle compliant VTA.And yse, - I beleive taht this is one... | |
| Establishing a common analog listening bias Hi, in general the DECCA-engineers had a more lucky hand regarding absolute phase in the recording equipment than their collegues at RCA and EMI.Thats why on the best DECCA SXLs you will have - once your VTA is 100% (...99%) groove-compliant - a e... | |
| Why is the price of new tonearms so high Dear Perrew, really look forward to.I am sure we'll have a real great audio and cultured day!Cheers,D. | |
| Why is the price of new tonearms so high A. - no, I meant geometry as a way to describe 2 and 3-dimensional matters.To what particular name you want to associate it is up to you and the history books.Geometry is a principle of nature.NOT a principle of man.Man just try to file it, name i... | |
| Why is the price of new tonearms so high Dear Perrew, the very best women are self-financing......Anyway - no, there is no tonearm on the market now or on the market in the future which would justify other than under marketing aspects a retail price of 20k.The best can be made for far le... | |
| Why is the price of new tonearms so high Dear Henry, no cryptic, full information ego but not dogmatic......You may ask too much - you see, we can't have everything.Cheers,D. | |
| Why is the price of new tonearms so high Dear Perrew, if you browse through Syntax's system it should be quite obvious what he is refering to.Nice picture of the new raptor in tonearm territory....... black, lean, fast and beautiful.Mr. Robert Graham - my respect!And that is something no... | |
| Why is the price of new tonearms so high Dear Axel, there is no such thing ever as a "new geometry". I believe at least this should be clear to each and everybody.Lurne's concept idea brings a very special aspect of sttice balance into focus.His claim that this is the one very important ... | |
| Why is the price of new tonearms so high Dear Perrew,I am regulary in Koblenz too - family affairs.... but there's no sound there.Anyway - you are one of the few who will be welcome.Still vividly remembering my visit to Stockholm in early September 1986.10 of the 20 most beautiful women ... | |
| Why is the price of new tonearms so high Dear Axel, well - why no let Raul comment on the Lurne hypothesis?As you know - I do not share Lurne's point of view.Maybe Raul does.Cheers,D. |
