| 10 Inch Tonearms lewm, if you're going to add a tonearm to a modified Thorens TD160 for a Hana MC Mono, what arms would you consider? | |
| 10 Inch Tonearms lewm, my thought was that the tonearm length is important depending on the cartridge build, including a mono cartridge (i.e. SPU) but I may have been confusing information. Most likely confusing length for weight. I was also thinking that a more e... | |
| 10 Inch Tonearms billwojo, that's a nice looking arm. Are you going to replace the cable? I wish I had the knowledge to pair up vintage components. | |
| Heat ebm, except in the winter. | |
| 10 Inch Tonearms boxer12, do you think adjusting the stylus just in front of the alignment point versus towards the back of the alignment point would offer any noticeable difference? | |
| 10 Inch Tonearms noromance, your findings are helpful. I’m assuming that you’re using a stereo cartridge on both the 9 inch and 12 inch tonearms. I’m thinking of a Hana MC Mono. The idea of hearing a wide soundstage from a mono cartridge seems a bit heretical but ... | |
| 10 Inch Tonearms Sorry R, you just have an axe to grind and I’m disinterested in going around in a cyclical argument about nothing. | |
| 10 Inch Tonearms rauliruegas, so what is your point, I have a personal understanding as to whether or not different types of tone arms have characteristics? I never stated those things to be absolutes. Maybe I’m wrong. If you disagree then why don’t you state why? | |
| 10 Inch Tonearms Seriously, Millercarbon, there’s no obligation for you to participate in this discussion. Which is all that it is, a discussion. I never said anything that could have been interpreted as being judgmental or ill meaning. If you want to contribute, ... | |
| 10 Inch Tonearms millercarbon, so then why not a 16 inch tonearm; which after all, is the original transcription tonearm. Of course, the build and sonic signature have to be solid as well. But a 9 inch arm compared to a 10 inch arm? If the differences are justifie... | |
| 10 Inch Tonearms bukanona, a salient point, thanks! Lookin around, many 12 inch arms state their strengths when using an Ortofon SPU. More choices just seems like more possibilities. And while I use a silk cloth rather than an acrylic dust cover, a 12 inch arm wou... | |
| 10 Inch Tonearms My questioning stems from choosing to use or not to use anti-skate. It seems that setting up a cartridge is as much an art as it is a science. An inch seems like a small adjustment where it pertains to making a mounting plate and installing a tone... | |
| 10 Inch Tonearms It’s even possible to use a 12 inch tone arm on a Thorens TD 160 or a Linn LP 12. So would that be a reason to mount a 12 inch tonearm on these tables, because you can? I’m inclined to believe there would be a difference in sound between a 9 inch ... | |
| 10 Inch Tonearms tablejockey, the term ‘concern’ is a bit of an exaggeration. I’m mainly interested in knowing whether a 10 inch arm would be a possible option given that I’ve seen a number of 10 inch tone arms on the used market. As far as fitting a ten inch arm ... | |
| The FM Multiplex Stereo Generator noromance. I sense you're suggesting to send it out to have it aligned. No worries about not getting responses, that happens to me a lot so I'm used to it. |
