| Why will no other turntable beat the EMT 927? For readers who are unfamiliar with the build of the EMT 927, this article is a great read. There are very few turntables that approach the engineering & build quality of this deck, it makes many modern "superdecks" look like toys.. http://www... | |
| Brinkmann vs TW Acustic I had an interesting experience years ago - when calibrating a Townsend power supply ( checking internal voltages, bias etc ) the sound opened up considerably. Smoother, more natural, much larger sound stage. There was no measurable change in spee... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Raul - whilst I regard your cartridge comparisons as invaluable, I do wonder how well your analogue is running. I have a friend with a Technics SP10 will all the mods being touted around this forum, $15k arm/cartridge, and another with bog standar... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? the difference between RBCD via the Oppo and a top quality LP via a great cartridge, tonearm, and turntable, is not in bandwidth, distortion, noise floor. Obviously, digital kills vinyl on all of those measurable criteria.That statement is not cor... | |
| Bass leaves after amp warms up? Fishing716 -A couple of suggestions. What I have found with some mosfet amps is they go through cycles. On turn on, very transparent, then after a while they go gluggy. However if you wait another hour then the transparency returns.The other sugge... | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System The Mitch Cotter that I'm familiar with had a sprung suspension just like a Linn, only more springs and controlled better with foam inserts, no pneumatics involved. The main thrust of his design was to remove all the extraneous crap from the direc... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Chris, 04-16-13: Richardkrebs... Later on in the thread, 03/14/13, Chris published the actual weight of the ET2.5 being only 8gms heavier than the ET2. This means that ET did not use the same cart parameters when giving Chris the original info..Br... | |
| Brinkmann vs TW Acustic Halcro - Yes I do agree with you. I have seen some audiophiles go complete circles in TT's, finally ending up where they started. Unfortunately analogue is a "sum of the parts" scenario, and I have seen too many mismatched TT's/arms/cartridges, no... | |
| Brinkmann vs TW Acustic Peterayer, The whole post is Brinkmanship, you just have to look at it with a sense of humour. I suspect the Brinkmann owners are busy listening to music.The funny thing is nobody seems to get the point that Dev had a Raven or 3, went to an old Mi... | |
| Everything about this is wrong... The worst case scenario would be eccentric records - I cant see that the feedback loop would be quick enough to prevent the cantilever from being continually loaded up adversely. The other question is what condition would your records be in after ... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Richardkrebs.If you prefer the sound of your ET2 loaded with lead and decoupled counterweight removed thats fine.A couple of technical points though.Paragraphs 1-3 : You miss the point here. Your quasi-mathematical arguments on resonant frequency ... | |
| Parallel? How do you set the VTA? I have a screw gauge that slips under the arm lift. 1/4 turn of the screw equates to 1/1000 of an inch.I can hear 1/1000 of an inch like night and day.In reality you are only getting near the zone with bubble levels.But then what about the cutterh... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Yes, John47, diatribe does indeed describe your contributions to this thread. However, please continue to waste more of our time posting your vitriol as this appears to be your preoccupation. | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners John47The thread is about the ET2. Your facetious comments demonstrate that you have no respect for the designer of the tonearm and clearly do not understand and are not interested in how it works. Not for one second could anyone consider you to b... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners 04-07-13: RichardkrebsDouble posts and thread ghosts of the past. How does that happen? Richardkrebs – Audiogon has advised that it looks like it was double posted by the original author – that’s you Richardkrebs. No ghosts involved. Is it possib... |
