| DaVinci tonearm and azymuth Does anyone know of a source for washers/shims that will alter azimuth by 0.5 degrees?I'm interested in Dr Feickert's software and have two tonearms with no built-in provision for azimuth adjustment. I understand I will need to do 5 (or 9) measure... | |
| help me pick a MM/AP BN reissue - for comparison Wound up ordering 'The Big Beat', 'Speakin' My Piece', 'Undercurrent' and 'Soul Station'.I figured I'd be able to then do comparisons vs. originals, Toshibas, Kings, and Connossieurs and, perhaps, extrapolate the results to other issues.I have a c... | |
| Who is Michael Fremers' I generally don't read reviews to determine what to buy, but that's because I'm happy with my system and I find my priorities quite a bit different than many others. I do find the writings of people who are experienced with componentry (particular... | |

| How good can a mono cartridge be...? thank you, hevac1!if you had to live with the rb300 + shelter 501, would you still elect to play all your mono records with it (on the same TT) instead of using your graham/koetsu combo (again, on the same basis TT)?or would you use the koetsu for... | |
| How good can a mono cartridge be...? i really don't have the space for a 2nd table, but your suggestion is an interesting one as it certainly does minimize the potential loss and allow me to do a test in my own system.my current table is very high performance, so i could expect that ... | |
| How good can a mono cartridge be...? hi tomasheig:thanks -- i do believe that the modest mono cartridge will likely exceed the performance/satisfaction of the top stereo cartridge on a mono source ... but the problem is that the tonearm will also be lower quality and that could reall... | |
| How good can a mono cartridge be...? thanks for the responses so far. i am fully aware that there are many mono cartridges *AVAILABLE* (including $4K models), but i am wondering this specifically:will a modest tonearm (say a rega) + a modest mono cartridge (say in the $500-700 range)... | |
| Magic Diamond vs Airtight PC1? thank you so much for the clarification! i didn't mean to cause a stir -- just happened to notice the conflicting information in a sparsely-populated "sea" of information about the cartridge. | |
| Magic Diamond vs Airtight PC1? Does anyone know the output voltage of the Magic Diamond?I have heard 0.25mV, 0.3mV, 0.35mV, and slipknot1's system lists it at 0.6mV (http://cgim.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/vs.pl?vaslt&zz1069279142&viewitem&o2&1175587664#item).Thank you... | |
| Raven One Does anyone know the approximate dimensions (and ballpark pricing) of the Raven One and Raven AC (w/ & w/o 3-motors)? Thank you! I searched all over (including the twacustic.de site) to no avail.Are Schroeder tonearms *actually* available? (Sp... | |
| Review: ZYX UNIverse-X-SB Cartridge Hi!Thanks for writing the informative review. Has anyone here since compared the UNI to the Magic Diamond?Thank you in advance for any guidance. | |
| What to expect from MONO Nsgarch...Can you clarify how a stereo cartridge could be to blame for room response?Wouldn't the fact that he's using 2 speakers be more "to blame"? I mean, a mono cartridge playing a mono track through 2 speakers would output the same signal to ... | |
| DPS/Schroeder Ref. Turntable Thom:Your post is an interesting and informative one, but it also makes a few points that beg clarification.I know of at least one individual on the waiting list for, so far, more than 15 months -- and he's not heard a word that he's even near to ... | |
| DPS/Schroeder Ref. Turntable Thanks, Thom, for shedding some light on delivery of those tonearms.I'm glad to hear they're not out of production, although it does sound like in addition to a substantial waiting period, there aren't many arms coming out, period.I've heard stori... |
