Compressed bamboo ply is harder than Maple, and heavier, more dense than regular bamboo ply.For glue I used Titebond II Premium - this is a wood glue that cleans up wi... | |

| Help me with a Fidelity Research FR64 part @nandric No, you miss the point - English is not the primary language in Japan, and that is the mistake you make. Perhaps you could write to the advertiser in Japan and explain why they are wrong when they call a nut a stabilizer, as they have don... | |
| Help me with a Fidelity Research FR64 part @lewm Dover, I certainly could be wrong, but I think the OP is looking for the large nut that goes under the tonearm mounting board and mates to the thread at the end of the vertical shaft of the FR 64. Yes, and if you google "yahoo japan" and "FR... | |
| Help me with a Fidelity Research FR64 part You can buy them on yahoo Japan - "FR64S stabilizer" - original size or super heavy stabilizer | |
| help........ @almarg Al - the max volume function limits the output volume - which means the preamp has to be turn up to achieve the same volume at the speakers.You can also use the variable volume on the 203 to overcome the problem - the advantage of using th... | |
| help........ @mcreyn If the problem exists with his Oppo 203 then the solution is to go into the set up option on the Oppo and set a max volume. This will enable him to run his CJ at a higher volume. | |

| Vinyl/TT Gurus Chime in! Cartridge Decision: Rework My old Sumiko or get a new cartridge? I use to be a dealer for both Zeta & Sumiko and know those products well.The first thing you should check is the arm. Some Zeta's had or developed sticky bearings - try a cheap new cartridge and verify that the the cartridge is the problem.Sec... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 All of the above cartridges, except for the Type III models, have Shure’s Dynamic Stabiliser brush, which damps tonearm/cartridge resonance, short circuits record static electricity to ground, and removes dust from ahead of the stylus. I preferred... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 My Glanz MFG61 has the same cantilever as in Chaksters picture in the Glanz thread. Cant tell whether it is hollow or not. Compliance of MFG61 is 25x10(-6) @10hz,.  610LX is 10x10(-6)@100hz. You cant accurately compare these, but the likely compli... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 @harold-not-the-barrel The discussion on Glanz has inspired me to pop my Glanz MFG61 back in the system. I have completed some subtle upgrades to my system in the past year. A couple of months ago I managed to wipe out my Koetsu Black Goldline whi... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? @frogman I continue to read some threads to gain knowledge, and enjoy others experiences, but seldom contribute now. The simplest way to navigate Rauls insults is skip his posts. Haven't read any of his posts for a couple of years now, I simply ig... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 @frogman Interesting - we agree on track 1. However on the Nina Simone I can hear the better resolution on the Palladian, but I’m getting more grunt from her lower registers coming from the abdomen - example .51 to 1.06 where she draws the note ou... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Hi @halcro Yes, differences are audible. At first I used Mac Air no headphones, but changing to iphone earbuds was more illuminating and in some instances changed preferences. I dont like headphones on my head, hence the earbuds, but I have starte... |
