Anyone using a USB DSD DAC? I came across thread by chance looking for information on the Tascam DV-RA1000-HD Mastering Recorder w/60GB Hard Drive. I assume that this unit records in the 64fs/2.82mhz, not 128fs/5.6mhz - yes?I have been waiting for a decent digital format to ... | |
Ortofon RS-309D opinions I was wondering if anyone had compared the SME V12 or SME 312s 12" arms to the RS-309D?The effective mass of the Ortofon RS-309D bothers me. Compared to the SME, wouldn't it's heavy mass make it like driving a nail into your records with a brick? ... | |
Stand out phono stages For the 'budget' list- has anyone had experience with the Luxman E-1 (now discontinued) and E-200 phono stages? Luxman use (I believe) an inbuilt transformer to amplify the MC signal to approximately MM level and then an inbuilt 'normal' amp to br... | |
Lehmann Decade Vs ARC PH5 Phonostages I should add that the WHEST PS 30R might also be suitable. Mixed reviews/feedback on that one. Any thoughts on the PS.30R compared to the afore mentioned phone-stages? | |
Move to MC Cartridge- Shelter, Ortofon? Raul- thanks for your input. However, I trying to determine the sonic differences between the two Ortofon MCs (see above) and also the Shelter 501. | |
The SME 3012, 3012s, Series V12 : Fun by the foot? Syntax- thanks, I'll check it out.Has anyone tried Tara Labs or Furotech tonearm cables? | |
The SME 3012, 3012s, Series V12 : Fun by the foot? A SME 12" arm owner suggested that the DIN cable would be the first thing to replace. I see there are some rather expensive DIN terminated cables out there, Can anyone suggest a good, moderately priced tonearm cable for the SME? | |
Technics SP-10 Tonearm Pod instead of Plinth/Base Downunder: That's just the sort of comments I'm looking for! Put it up there. There many jazz, Weavers and 'Famous Blue Raincoat' lovers out there and I read their comments all the time. However, what about the music lovers who dig a massive bass-... | |
Technics SP-10 Tonearm Pod instead of Plinth/Base Downunder: Yes, I agree. However, now I'm talking about a small operator who buys 2nd hand (or new) SL1200s, pulls them apart and re-births them as a top flight deck with a different arm, plinth, power supply etc. Hello Sound HiFi UK! Are you list... | |
Technics SP-10 Tonearm Pod instead of Plinth/Base The age comment was a dig at myself BTW just in case I invoke the ire of a million baby boomer audiophiles... | |
Technics SP-10 Tonearm Pod instead of Plinth/Base Macrojack- I still say that the resurgence of interest in direct drive TT, in spite of the belt-drive flat Earthers, may deliver a spark in the mind of a smart hi-fi business person.I'm sure that somewhere in the UK/USA/Oz or elsewhere there is a ... | |
Technics SP-10 Tonearm Pod instead of Plinth/Base Good points, Macrojack. Then, rather than re-inventing the wheel, follow the example done many including Origin Live. Buy the parts from the manufacturer and 'build' a 'new' DD turntable. Geez, they put Ford engines into exotic cars (Aston Martin-... | |
Technics SP-10 Tonearm Pod instead of Plinth/Base Hey everyone. Read this blog (which what I should have done earlier)'SP10 Mk II vs Mk III'BTW Has anyone tried the afore mention cement or plaster plinth?I hope someone at Panasonic is reading this blog. They might get the idea to reissue the SP-1... | |
Technics SP-10 Tonearm Pod instead of Plinth/Base LEWM: thanks for the tip on the cutout. Thanks also for the explanation of the arm length issue. Weisselk has also suggested that removing the base of the SP-10 could be a good idea, especially sonically.Raul and others seem to have had success wi... | |
Technics SP-10 Tonearm Pod instead of Plinth/Base Hi Weisselk,Well, your comments are borne from experience that I do not have- they are very welcomed- thanks. Did you ever try cement or a conglomerate for a plinth? It's heavy. It's cheap. But, would it be any good?Lewm- I had good laugh at the "... |
