| Phono rig capacitance Jcarr, thank you very much for posting I appreciate it. I will read through the forum, gather my thoughts, and post in this thread again. I am also wondering, what do you find is the typical inductance of a moving coil cartridge (low output and al... | |
| Phono rig capacitance Oh yeah, one more note on that article. It appears that they have grossly inflated the inductance figure on MCs, as I pointed out, for a typical MC cartridge. Some googling around can confirm that most are really a couple of uH to max a couple hun... | |
| Phono rig capacitance Well, here is what I have done. The computation does become complex, for spread sheeting etc..once you have to start looking into the differential equations. Do-able but much more practical to handle it using a brute force method, enter the circui... | |
| Phono rig capacitance I dont have this cartridge or step up, but I think it will be most useful to use it as an example since many people do.Might as well post the specs.Denon 103R Specs Output 0.25 mVOutput impedance 14ohms(no inductance spec, impedance is total I tak... | |
| Phono rig capacitance I am lost here. Help! LOL.I looked up RLC circuits and found how to calculate Xc reactive capacitance and XL reactive inductance, and impedance Z. Xc= 1/(2*pi*F*C)Xl = 2*pi*F*L Z = R/sqrt(R^2 +X^2) where X is abs(Xc-XL)Now I want to figure out how... | |
| Sell quality turntable to buy top CD player? %@$# NO ! nothing else to be said about that issue! | |
| Led Zep Reissue on vinyl They are all digital transfers from what I read online, which to me is an automatic disqualification. Weird to hear someone bash the classic records version, I thought it is universally accepted that they are the best thing since sliced bread. By ... | |
| SL1200 upgrade tonearm or replace cartridge? Nick, I don't think your cart needs replacing it sounded GREAT the other day and tracked like a champ, I think that you just have some audio-nervosa on it. I like the job you did on the arm, the custom carbon fiber wand/headshell/direct wire are a... | |
| Charge for TT setup? Dont buy the $12k table, setup is $200 for that one. LOL, this is ridiculous. This does not sound like a good dealer, but you might be dealing with someone new or junior to the company who knows that the fee for "cartridge setup" is normally $100,... | |
| Help for a vinyl novice 1. Technics 1200, swap arm for rega arm. A friend of mine swapped out the arm wand for Carbon fibre rod, this may not be practical for everyone and it took a lot of work but I with his rewire and tone arm I can confidently say it is the best 1200 ... | |
| Cost no object tonearm for DL-103 Not to sound rude, I am generally interested in the answer. If cost is no object, why not swap to a different cartridge ? It is interesting to hear people mating the 103 with components that outclass them in terms of cost. Now I get that cost does... | |
| MC Step Up Math Swamp...LOL was waiting to see a post like that in this thread. | |
| MC Step Up Math Al you are right, it makes little difference for the 50K vs 47K it is not substantial, however there are still a lot of them quoted at 15K so I wanted to make sure I am doing the right thing, as it does make a difference in that scenario. Thanks f... | |
| MC Step Up Math Good call lewm, sure simplicity is good and when possible that is the best path. How about if it was made in 1930-1950 by a company that is long gone, or does not have the specs available any more? By applying the simple calculation, you know what... | |
| MC Step Up Math You can see in example 1. it did not make much difference 35Ohms vs 37.5 quoted.But in example 2 that 470 vs 150 quoted is a huge difference. If you were trying to match a 40 ohm cart 150 would be rejected since it is much lower than a 10 multiple... |
