| Think I ruined stylus Don't leave stray hairs on your needle. | |
| I made a rookie mistake, don't do this @elliottbnewcombjr A dust cover might be adequate (or not) keeping dust off the platter and plinth. It serves little useful purpose otherwise. It does nothing to help the life of a cartridge. The latter part falls under keeping your records and ... | |
| Thank You Fumihiko Sugano and Koetsu @pindac You know something about this, or are you just speculating? What makes you think there's a "strong possibility"? | |
| Thank You Fumihiko Sugano and Koetsu Reports are circulating out of the Koetsu Users Facebook group that Koetsu is no more. The family has decided not to sell to a third party to continue the brand. I don't have a Koetsu, although I have considered one before. I have two Lyra Atlas ... | |
| Stylus stuck in groove. I once bought a used record that had something so gooey and gluey that nothing would remove it, and trying just made it worse. As a last resort I used Goo Gone with a microfiber towel on just the contaminated grooves and it worked brilliantly. I ... | |
| Where to go next with the turntable I'm pretty sure that was Linn that said not to clean records @traudio It was Roy Gandy of Rega who said that. It was even printed in the Rega TT manual (don't know if it still is). | |
| What happens when the stylus tip wears out on a $12,000 cartridge? A potential problem with forgoing an official rebuild from the manufacturer and going with a third party retip service instead is that if/when you really do need a rebuild (for the other internals, etc) the OEM might not want to touch it if a thir... | |
| MoFi lawsuit @kennyc I questioned your premise, which you refuse to support in any way, except to say you’re too lazy. I produced some evidence to the contrary. You responded with a strawman argument. One of two here has difficulties with logic. It isn’t me.... | |
| MoFi lawsuit @kennyc So you have nothing to back up your erroneous claim. Thanks for confirming it. The MoFi aspect of your response is just a strawman. | |
| MoFi lawsuit @kennyc Besides, iirc vinyl cannot be strictly processed to be 100% analog using the current recording tools Says who? It's expensive to record to analog tape, but it is still done. And much of what MoFi remastered and was deceptive about wa... | |
| Turntable Isolation Journey Yes, into a Naim Superline/SupercapDR + 252/300DR into Dynaudio Confidence C2 Platinum and a pair of REL S/510. The sound is sublime. The Lyra Atlas Lambda (SL/Mono) are a real game changer. | |
| Turntable Isolation Journey @mulveling thanks for all your prior help answering questions. I ended up getting the Innovation as I hoped to. I bought the Piano Black version, with the 12" Universal arm. I kept the 9" Universal from my Ovation and bought a Lyra Atlas Mono for... | |
| How are we wiring our Mono systems? I am using a mono cartridge (Lyra Atlas Lambda) in my stereo system. My mono albums sound fantastic that way, and I really don’t understand the point to building a dedicated mono system. What does that accomplish that I can’t get with what I have?... | |
| What was your first record? My first album was actually three all at once. Got them as a 12th birthday present (August, 1970): 1. Grateful Dead, Workingman's Dead 2. Soundtrack from Woodstock 3. Jimi Hendrix, Band of Gypsies | |
| MoFi lawsuit @bigtwin whether or not I'm happy with my MoFi titles is irrelevant. MoFi was blatantly dishonest and misrepresented the product. I agree they should be punished. Maybe that will change the industry for the better, such that other labels who won'... |
