| Ortofon A90 or Air Tight PC-1 Ldorio. You have given us no help here. Since when did Michael Fremer work for Ortofon? I am asking you as a representative from Ortofon. Shouldn't you know. If you don't, ask Ortofon head office. You indicate TAS screwed up the setup of the A90. ... | |
| Ortofon A90 or Air Tight PC-1 Ldorio Since you represent Ortofon, can you please advise what are the recommended operating parameters to ensure you get the best out of the A90. The manual say absolutely nothing about whether the tonearm needs to be level, raised, what the SRA... | |
| Nude Turntable Project Halcro. and? You don't get away with not commenting if it sounds like pleasure or pain | |
| Nude Turntable Project That a bummer Halcro. Buy a 12 inch arm wand from Bob - or use one of your other arms :-) | |
| Nude Turntable Project Hi Henry sounds like some fun. first up I believe can's of mango sound better as they have a thicker syrup adding to isolation properties :-) seriously, you need you get a correct 240 to 100vlt transformer. a friend of mine bought a micro seiki v... | |

| Changing from an XV1-S Hi Raul I bought an XV-1s a few years back and owned it for 6 months and preferred the sound of the XV-1, so I sold the XV-1s to a fiend of mine and bought another XV-1. I have not indicated the XV-1 having any bass problems, in fact the just oppo... | |
| Changing from an XV1-S Bill, better is of course subjective. better in my system certainly. better in every system, probably not. | |
| Changing from an XV1-S I have spent 9 nmonths listening to the A90 and 9 years listening to the XV-1. The A90 is the better cartridge overall. It is more pure, less sound of its own and sounds musically more coherent top to bottom. The XV-1 has a looser bigger bass and ... | |

| Albert Porters after market panzerholz plinths All I can say with all this talk about plinths etc, I sure am glad I bought a table from a company that actually spent time and $$ building an integrated table, plinth and tonearm that takes away all this stress and sounds absolutley world class t... | |
| Albert Porters after market panzerholz plinths Hi Halcro Our mutual friend Ian in Melb bought a GPM. He has now sold his Basis Debut/Vector as it was getting no use. He has not compared it to any other DD tables. cheers | |
| Albert Porters after market panzerholz plinths Hi Lew I think you may agree that once you have reached a certain level of quality, all relative merits are subjective and linked directly to one's room interaction, individual components, set up, tastes etc etc. I have not heard any of the tables... | |
| Albert Porters after market panzerholz plinths Interesting how certain products trounce in one system and are trounced in another. One audiophile I know (outside of USA) has quite a few turntables and an extremely good syhstem. Walker Proscenium Black Diamond II , MS SX 8000II, Kuzma XL 4, MS ... | |
| How's the Audio Research Ref Phono 2 Working Out? Nice review Tim. Sounds tempting. I am puzzled at you loading at 47k thou. I would have thought loading an ARC at 47k would have might it too airy and bright. How did it sound lower compared to the 47k? |
