| Does Everyone Use 2 Phono Cables with SUT @labpro Ok, now I’m really curious. I’m going to borrow my friends Auditorium 23 “T2” Thats a great idea. It will give you an indication of whether the mismatch is having a significant affect or not. By the way, I have the DIN phono cable A... | |
| Does Everyone Use 2 Phono Cables with SUT @mulveling If you look at the cost of the components to have such a mismatch is sad. If you put 91 in your Ferrari, it will run, but it won't perform. | |
| Does Everyone Use 2 Phono Cables with SUT @elliottbnewcombjr The 2.5ohm T1 supposedly has a turns ration of at least 30. He's running the 16ohm Madake into 52ohms. His output voltage would be 7volts into the phono. It's a mess - total mismatch - probably the result of reading too many ... | |
| Tonearm/Cartridge pairing. @martinguitars Antiskate too high - should be in the range 0.7-1.0. What about VTA ? Good stylus clean. | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners @lewm I am wondering why mounting a large weight close to the pivot point makes any difference as far as overcoming the air pressure and collapsing the air suspension , Because the air bearing carries the mass of the arm/cartridge/counterwe... | |
| Parts for Dynavector 501 Tonearm @islandmandan I don't know who came up with the idea of using the parts from the 507, but I thank them for thinking of it for me. You are welcome. While you are at it the 507 Base with the VTA adjuster also fits the 501 if your 501 doesn't ... | |
| Does the Eminent Technology 2.5 arm work well with the Transcriptors Reference turntable? @rooze Your suspension is very stable - you can run ET2's on hung suspensions - Examples are Sota, VPI, Basis, SME30. The problem pertains to subclasses sitting on top of springs like the Oracle, Linn. I have seen a couple of ET's running great... | |
| Parts for Dynavector 501 Tonearm @islandmandan Some of the parts for the 507, which is still current, are the same as the 501 and can be interchanged. I would be surprised if the arm lift mechanism is not interchangeable. | |
| Parts for Dynavector 501 Tonearm You should be able to get the parts from Dynavector. | |
| Does the Eminent Technology 2.5 arm work well with the Transcriptors Reference turntable? @ketchup How is it that the consensus is that an ET2 won't work on a table with springy suspension but it works well on an Oracle? Is the Oracle's suspension not considered springy? I have an ET2 on an Oracle and it seems to work well. I ... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners @ct0517 And one of the best arms ever made regardless of price and most unfairly maligned. It beggars belief that on audiogon there is so much misinformation on the ET2, when discussing tonearms in general, when the Eminent Technology website c... | |
| What is the “World’s Best Cartridge”? @pindac Many years ago I bought a Leak Stereo 20 off a guy and he gave me all his classical 33rpm records, including many superb recordings from the 50's/60's, for free when I picked the amp up. I asked him why - he said he preferred 78's and w... | |
| Turntables @ghdprentice On VPI unipivot arms. I think they sound great. I think what @dover was saying is that he prefers using a different kind of arm Yes and no - they have their place, but I think the VPi is not a great one - I have a Naim Aro in my... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners @nandric I like disputes. Here is my ''first.''. This thread looks like Wittgenstein's ''phylosophical remarks'' He made about 10000 while an ''normal human'' can remember about 10. Keep inventing new upgrades... If you want to do a case stu... | |
| Analog Upgrade itch @eddiechanghk Pardon for my ignorance , does a SUT+ MM phono plays better than direct to a MC phono and what is the sonic improvement, generally can provide from a SUT ? Really depends on the quality of the particular units - you cant general... |
