| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Raul,I totally agree and, I suppose, have tried to suggest some of that in my comments. I suppose I did not really note the importance of differences between the individual listening room and concert hall on scale/volume and acoustic behaviour and... | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Atmasphere,Thanks for your thoughts on the matter and - I think - I agree. My early morning comments were confused at best. Acoustic space/venue; the method of delivery (location and quality of microphones, amps and/or speakers); proximity to perf... | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Raul,Thanks and I look forward to reading it. I have also posted a comment on my System page about which I have questions. It would be interesting to hear other views on my uncertainty. Anyway, a paraphrase of what I posted there is:"Following my ... | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Raul,I would dearly love to give it another whirl and so any feedback might enduce me to do so.Thanks | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Lewm,I have posted a couple of photo's of the arm tower arrangement under the headings 'Arm Tower AS' on my System page. | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Lewm,I will post photo's of the arm tower as soon as I can and let you know.If you look at the design of Halcro's armpod, you can see how an off-set mounting hole can allow great flexibility (even more than my current arrangement) for mounting and... | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Banquo363/Chris.Apologies for the mix up on the AT616 and arm tower issue: a mix of old age and inattentiveness I fear.Lewm,Both my arms are 9" or less and work perfectly on the Technics SP10 Mk2. Don't let concerns about size stop you trying this... | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Lewm,I do have a long carpenter's level that I use for making measurements of larger areas (of shelves, turntable etc). However, the small precision vial that I use can be used to ensure the level at a variety of (often small and intricate - arm t... | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Chris,Sorry but just a quick follow up. Did you try the arm tower on your fourth AT616 and, if so, what was the outcome?Thanks | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Ct0517,I'm not altogether certain. Moving the Technics onto the AT616s made an immediate difference to staging, pitch and tone. However, isolating and mass-loading the armboard definitely enhanced these gains and brought about the full potential t... | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Raul,Only the Moerch DP6 and Audiocraft AC3300 LB. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Raul, No problem and I look forward to reading your review of the MF100. Any findings regarding set up and optimising will be particularly welcomed. I've not tried mine in a long, long time and that might just be the spur I need to give it another... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Raul,While you're re-valuating your favourite cartridges, do you think you'll have a chance to review the Astatic MF100 soon?I'd like to see your retrospective here and any tips for getting the best out of it.Cheers | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Halcro,Sorry, I should have also said that I have also based my comments on the nude approach in the light of my experience with the various other TT's that I have owned, which I have referenced before. | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Halcro,Thanks for the kind words. Regarding the plinths tried, I tried a birch, aluminium and acrylic composite plinth. I also tried various directly coupled arm boards. These included ones made of birch/aluminium, ash and MDF. Of the armboards, t... |
