EMT 927 vs. Micro Seiki 5000 or 8000 - different?
Dear friends, To my 15 years involving experience with my (24kgr platter) Symphonic Line RG6, I can add that never I've had to re-align the speed also, but what happens to the MOMENT CHANGES in speed due to stylus friction, is another thing of a g... 
Interface: Cartridge-Preamp or Cart-Tonearm?
First of all, my compliments to the contributors of this thread for their respectful suggestions that I incorporate.Especially what Dover said and we tend to forget these days.I've also experienced the mistracking caused by phonostage that Dan ed ... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Thank you Raul for your explanation, now I understand that you have reach the acceptable level before 5 years, while I'm almost in the final meter of the race. Using an all tube set-up is confusing. The quality but also the personality of each tub... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Hi David, congratulations for your heroic experiments.I've found that this "unintended equalisation" extends to the time domain also, as well as in the freq response and this contributes to the final perceived tone of the mismatched components. So...

Dear Daniel, why don't you get a cup of hot milk and get a good sleep also?Ooops! I forget. I promised not to ask anything. 
Uni-Protractor Set tonearm alignment
Dear Daniel, I promise I'll stop to tease you with so much out of topic queries any more. I've just figured out that is worthless, as it seems you avoid to answer anyway. Not that you are obliged to do that of course.(ie): the "alternation of the ... 
Uni-Protractor Set tonearm alignment
"There are a very few pivot tonearms out there with apply practically zero skating force to the stylus."Why are you mention this? Are they having an advantage over the rest tonearms? I thought that as the friction increases towards the center of t... 
Uni-Protractor Set tonearm alignment
Dear Daniel, for second time in this thread you state :+++[ "Setting the "cartridge offset angle" other than the offset angle of the tonearm's headshell does produce an additional break-down torque in the tonearm's static model - i.e. an additiona... 
Uni-Protractor Set tonearm alignment
I'm not the one who is tolerant for this last o.1mm !I can not imagine someone to spend his money on great TT/arm/cart, when at the same time he is carelessly putting the needle just close to the protractor's hole. It is always about to make the b... 
Uni-Protractor Set tonearm alignment
Dear Thuckan, whats the use of the greatest protactor if one can not manage to take advantage of the offered precision?The improper alignments that you have seen and heard, were due to wrong calculations or average protractor's quality. But if the...

Dear Syntax,I really can't see even one reason for your post.Your first photo is a paradigm that can not happens. Never!Your third photo also shows a misalignment. Maybe a slight but true. Any difficulty that arises always, it has to do with the c... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Raul, Thank you once again for sharing your experience.It is one more thing that worries me : Once that I adjust the prefered geometry std. (ie Lofgren B IEC) do I have to concern about any consequences that may arise from the excessive diffe... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Raul,Thank you for this! I've won the auction but the main reason was the stated 12cu compliance for my SAEC WE-308SX assumed a better match than a AT 150MLX, MP500, D4000 II . Do you think a new headshell is a necessity over the 18gr ULS-3X?... 
A Copernican View of the Turntable System
Dear Chris, the only thing of great concern is how softy you can handle the arm lift. The JR responds quite sharp to an aggressive shock and your fingers must feel only an affectionate touch as like they slip over when queing or lift down the tone... 
A Copernican View of the Turntable System
Dear Lewm, sorry about my English it is obvious that I'm using the dictionary mercilessly. This is what I meant :The forces created by the cartridge and the tonearm during play, cannot cause any motion to the armpod, as they are received & col...
