Anyone used a USB microscope to align cartridge? I am using dynalite USB scope for this purpose now. I initially got it to measure SRA. It is very precise and better than 10 times lupe. This is a big plus if your carts have large body obscuring the stylus like the Coralstone. I have multiple arm... | |
Technics: PLINTHS: Dobbins, Porter, or Thompson? Do you mean Chris Thornton? Thornton's tables are very high quality with excellent workmanship, looks and sound. I am very happy with mine. I am sure Porter and Dobbins are very good as well. I have listened to Dobbins at RMAF and have not had the... | |
In Room Frequency Response Measurements Yes, I was down that road before. Without proper room acoustics, collecting gear is still fun as I can get different version of suck. If anything, I have become a better seller and buyer.When I saw how moderately priced gear can make such great so... | |
In Room Frequency Response Measurements freq response is only one parameter, big difference how you look at the data ( different smoothing alogorithm, narrow band vs wide band problems ) and interpret them. IMHO, a even decay across the entire freq spectrum is more important. Not only b... | |
Dynaudio c2 or c4 - need some help Going back to original questions, the C2/C4 vs C1 would really depend on whether you like the stacked design or not. The extra woofer towards the top is another bass source. When combined with bottom woofer, theoretically yield a more even in room... | |
Dynaudio c2 or c4 - need some help Not just the room size but the ratio of the dimensions.Dan, is it going to be HT room too? | |
Dynaudio c2 or c4 - need some help That's a very reasonable plan. Two subs would be better than one and I think both F110 or F112 would do great. Double dry wall green glue recipe is great to sound proof the room but does not always produce the bass quality that you like. It will r... | |
Dynaudio c2 or c4 - need some help This is going to be a very problematic room. 16' and 18' are very close together and 16 is almost the double of 7'8". All the modes are going to be similar and the summation of modes means many very large peaks. Given your choices, definitely C2 w... | |
12 inch Graham Phantom Syntax,I am not sure if I can trust you on the length difference. Maybe you doped the pictures. I will have to verify this one myself soon. | |
To clean zerodust Thanks for the tips Guys. Save me $40.Frank, you can find out first hand. How is the new room? | |
12 inch Graham Phantom LOL. Try and keep this under control. This thread is well on its way to be deleted. I think Peter at North Audio also carry some long ones.I have also seen some >18" ones made with exotic african wood material. | |
12 inch Graham Phantom Is longer better? | |
Adjusting SRA using macro lens vs microscope Thanks guys. I think I am getting the SRA, I can't make too much out of the strings but I think I can hear the harmonic integration varying with SRA with the piano. I adjusted VTF to be consistent but did not realign the cart.. The microscope doe... | |
Adjusting SRA using macro lens vs microscope I have the Dino am413T with flex stand. It is one model up from the 313 used in Fremer's article. The magnification is the same but the camera has more pixels. The web site said measurements would be more precise because of this. It is only$40 -50... | |
Adjusting SRA using macro lens vs microscope Thanks for taking the time to post and detailing what to listen for. I certainly have some work ahead. I did receive the scope today and it took only 15min including installation, taking a pic and measuring an angle. It yielded an SRA of 89.3 degr... |
