Tonearm recommendation Thanks Crazy Bill, Eel Killer.nice story | |
Tonearm recommendation Pryso, Dennesen sold a separate device for dealers. I couldn't remember the name. I searched for a photo, but couldn't find one. It was called the Pivotram and used for locating arm mount holes. I do the same thing as you - reverse the SoundTract... | |
Tonearm recommendation The Mint is an arc, custom made for each arm? If you want an arc check this out:http://conradhoffman.com/chsw.htmI can only reiterate my caveat about arcs. If you're swapping arms and using an arc your alignment is most likely off. It should be... | |
Tonearm recommendation Pryso, Dennesen made another device to accurately locate the arm mounting hole. It was like a 2 sided ruler with a long slot in the middle. One end tightened over the spindle while staying at zero. The other end had a clamp where you could insert ... | |
Clearaudio Virtuoso Ebony Wood or Ortofon 2M Black Cartridge? The enclosure of the 95 is mostly aluminum. The top is plastic. Some people disagree with your body material assessment, thinking the 150 deluxe body is unnecessarily heavy and the plastic is better damped. Some others say the CA V2 has too much w... | |
Tonearm recommendation Now that I think about it, I asked a dumb question. Of course a single set up protractor can have any 2 nulls drawn or etched on it. I was thinking from the standpoint of protractor with a single standard alignment, hence the question. Is that Au... | |
Tonearm recommendation Lewm, **I use the UNI for the DV505. Dertonearm's design is complex and a bit cumbersome to use, but it is also ingenious and permits very accurate alignment because of the ancillary tools he provides. However, I cannot quote distances in fracti... | |
Clearaudio Virtuoso Ebony Wood or Ortofon 2M Black Cartridge? Johnnyb, Clearaudio is creative with specs without necessarily lying. When V2 series was released, output was bumped up on top models due to stronger magnets. Last I looked this was scaled back to be the same as all the others. Maybe they didn't l... | |
Tonearm recommendation Only the inner null is close to Stevenson. The outer null is exactly Loefgren B. | |
Clearaudio Virtuoso Ebony Wood or Ortofon 2M Black Cartridge? Shayatin, I was thinking about what you might be able to get in that price range and if it was a little more, you'd be able to pay the difference. This could be a little complicated in your situation I guess.I don't have experience with an Elite A... | |
Tonearm recommendation Dover,**Result is effective length of 254.97 and overhang of 16.158.This is impossible with the Dynavector unless you extend the length of the arm or headshell.**The arm has 2 non-coincidental pivots, an ingenious design.Regards, | |
Clearaudio Virtuoso Ebony Wood or Ortofon 2M Black Cartridge? Shayatin, You might want to rethink this. If you have a $900 budget there might be a better choice. What kind of phono stage do you have? Regards, | |
Tonearm recommendation Dear Raul, You wound me deeply. I was the greatest tutor in all of the Americas, and look what I have become. I have failed you. Now I am just a hollow shell of a tutor, like an empty tortoise shell in the sand, I'm a dead tortoise tutor, not to s... | |
Tonearm recommendation Raul, My job is being a consultant to you? This is news to me, am I on the payroll? Maybe a flat fee for consultation, or maybe I misunderstand. I thought this thread is about high quality arms around $6K or less. It looks like all the DV arms hav... | |
Tonearm recommendation Dover, Interesting comment. The straight zero offset arms available today address lateral torsional forces. The ViV Rigid Float requires little or no antiskate as a result of this. Skating force is increased by cart offset, that is lateral cantil... |
