| Turntable Isolation Journey @mulveling This is great information. I really appreciate it. I may come into a windfall and am considering an Innovation Wood Black/Piano Black with black 12" Universal. I already have a Lyra Atlas Lambda SL, so that should be a killer combo. I... | |
| Turntable Isolation Journey Also, I have a hard time telling from the picture, but is your Universal the 12" version? I have a 9" on my Ovation, but if I order a Wood I may get it with the 12" and decide whether or not to keep my 9" as a second arm. I have a second cartridge... | |
| Turntable Isolation Journey @mulveling Thanks so much for the quick response. I assume, there is more flexibility in the 20" dimension? I have a 16.25" x 19.5" platform now, and I could probably get a HRS E1X 19″ X 17″ on loan from my dealer to try. IOW: are the three feet... | |
| Turntable Isolation Journey Hi @mulveling Would you mind telling me what size your Seismic Isolation Platform is? I have an Ovation but am thinking about getting an Innovation Wood, but I don't know what the footprint of the Innovation spiked feet is. Clearaudio only says ... | |
| Using Maple Butcher Block Under a Turntable LOL. I'm not sure I would hear the difference between an air and kiln dried wood base, but I do know my system is resolving enough that I heard I heard a pretty big difference between a HRS ADH 850 gr record stainless clamp (which has a rubber com... | |
| Kirmuss Cleaning System Discuss? I have a Kirmuss. I also have an Audio Desk. The Kirmuss system is way too fussy, manually involved and time consuming. After some successes with it I ended up not using it for well over a year, mostly because I couldn't deal with the fuss and tim... | |
| Lyra Etna Lambda SL tracking force @jcarr I have a new Lyra Atlas Lambda SL I received in January. I am using it with a Clearaudio Ovation and Universal arm. When you say the suspension will settle somewhat over time, I am curious what you think that period is? At what point can I ... | |
| Lyra Atlas experiences @lewm yes, I am hearing differences. The 453Ω load doesn’t have the dynamics and treble extension of the 470Ω. I’ve actually abandoned the 453Ω load and am comparing 470Ω and 500Ω now. For sure, they are very close. For jazz and rock close enough ... | |
| Do You Play Or Save Your Best Cartridges I have two cartridges that are retired. One of them will get retiiped as a back up. I have a new cartridge (just 130 hrs on it as I type this), and it’s the best one I’ve ever had. That is all I will use until it wears out and needs to go back for... | |
| Why aren't all modern vinyl releases 45s? I prefer 33 RPM reissues because I think 45s are a PITA in terms of enjoying music. I’d rather sacrifice a little bit of extra quality (and I question that’s always true anyway) if I don’t have to get up every 5-8 mins. I have a ton of 45 RPM reis... | |
| Lyra Atlas experiences @mijostyn Thanks for the suggestions, but I’ll pass on trying a different clamp. I’ve used what I have for years and it suites me well enough. It doesn’t have to be 100% effective or the best solution. | |
| Lyra Atlas experiences @pindac Thank you. Trust me, the grin is very much ear to ear at the moment. I am closing in on 50 hrs. and I think it has already opened up and shown what it is capable of. That jives with what a friend who knows this cartridge (non-SL) and the m... | |
| Lyra Atlas experiences @mijostyn Thank you for your feedback, You might want to read up on my turntable a bit more before getting too critical of how I use it. I might look dumb but I do kind of know what I’m doing. LOL You are wrong about the risk of bearing wear re... | |
| Lyra Atlas experiences @mijostyn Thanks for the suggestions, but they have all been addressed. I have already adjusted azimuth, using an acrylic gauge and confirmed with my Fozgometer (which should always be run with a fresh battery for accurate results). Lyra suggests ... | |
| Lyra Atlas experiences I took delivery of a Lyra Atlas Lambda SL about a week ago. I have about 35 hrs on it now (I can’t be dragged away from it….LOL). I waited five months from the time I ordered. I am using this with a Clearaudio Ovation and Universal arm, with a Na... |
