| Richard Strauss Recordings Thanks for the link, I will have a look. The Adorno 'school' of dialectic thinking is as much a relic of the past as the compositional 'school' of serialism. And to be clear about my own position in this 'debate': I can 'appreciate' Schoenberg for... | |
| Richard Strauss Recordings Going in the desert and return with some new truth sounds very biblical, doesn’t it? Likewise in music such new ’truth’ can easily turn into new dogma and serialism certainly was a very strict and even dogmatic system. It became a sort of smokescr... | |
| Richard Strauss Recordings I was too late to make corrections, but of course the famous tone poems were written before the ground breaking operas. This doesn’t take away the feeling that these pieces have a tendency towards sensationalism. It’s very effective for what it do... | |
| Richard Strauss Recordings Lack of appreciaton is not what I get from reading these responses. However most of the reservations folks seem to have prevent them from truly loving his music. Strauss’ musicianship is always recognized and his manner of ’decorating’ time is one... | |
| Curious to know what you guys think/like about Pink Floyd's early work There probably would have been more interest or excitement in the music forum. Anyway, to me The Pink Floyd ('the' was dropped after Syd left) is a totally different band than Pink Floyd without Sid. The Piper album was all Barrett's song writing ... | |
| ZYX "House" Sound Dover’s advise is usually spot on, but in this case I believe he’s a little too stern. Many folks here seem to believe that the new stuff is always better. Obviously technological progress does exist, but in the case of turntables, tonearms and ca... | |

| The damper, the tension wire and cantilever position Well, I never owned Blue nor Purpleheart, so apparently I didn't know what I didn't own. How does that qualify me? Probably as an ignorant poor man.....🤣 | |
| The damper, the tension wire and cantilever position Dear nandric, I was indeed wrong about the Blue and Purpleheart, which were also low impedance designs. But in the case of the 'beauty' (Agate) my memory seems to be correct as several sources on the net confirm this was a 42 ohm impedance system.... | |
| The damper, the tension wire and cantilever position Dear Nandric, I know about those stories but as long as Van den Dungen remains silent we will never know the truth. It's not in my nature to serve both sides of an argument, but this might be an exception. Why? Well, most Kiseki's (Blue, Purplehe... | |
| The damper, the tension wire and cantilever position Dear nandric, I recently had contact with Alessandro about another cartridge. He's a nice gentleman and certainly must be one of the biggest collectors out there. To return to topic, most cartridges with skewed cantilever I've seen are bent to th... | |
| The damper, the tension wire and cantilever position I guess this is not the place to 'delve into' the reasons for the terrible mess sapiens has got itself into, so I won't. Your offer to hand over 30 of your cartridges for my LL is very tempting, but having over 30 is already exceeding the bounde... | |
| The damper, the tension wire and cantilever position Haha, I have over 30 of them, so I’ll be on the watch for their revenge. Thanks for the warning! I owned the Agate and still own a Lapis Lazuli (albeit refurbished by vdHul with boron cantilever). Both Kiseki carts have fairly long cantilevers and... |
