Glanz moving magnet cartridges Dear Nikola,To put into perspective the variations and possible combinations that can affect the sound of the analogue performance in my particular case.......with every cartridge there are 9 possible adjustments:-1. Turntable x22. Arm x43.VTF x54... | |
Glanz moving magnet cartridges Dear Nikola,I agree with you about the FR-64s.....but I also think the FR-66s is even more beautiful?And such authority it has.In fact.....I have been contemplating selling my DaVinci arm and replacing it with an arm that accepts interchangeable h... | |
Nude Turntable Project Thanks Ecir38,It's not your fault.....it's my stupidity.I suspect that Stanwal and others are correct in the placement theory of my Victor in relation to the speaker/subwoofer/corner but I need my preamp back to test it out?A spare phono wouldn't ... | |
Nude Turntable Project Hi Brian,Congratulations on your TT-101.The drawings have been sent.Good luck.Henry | |
Glanz moving magnet cartridges Halcro, why in the hell today you own several tonearms and dozens of HEADSHELLS? why? please let me know.I own the tonearms because I am 'sick'.....just like Nikola :~}And I own the dozens of headshells so I can have the dozens of cartridges I ow... | |
Glanz moving magnet cartridges Dear Nikola,I really don't know if 230mm for the FR-64s gives Stevenson or Baerwald as I only have Dertonarm's template to align them and it doesn't say what geometry is used?The strange thing is......that Daniel recommends that 231.5mm be used fo... | |
Glanz moving magnet cartridges Dear Raul,I always respect your opinions but.......in the case of the FR-7 series cartridges in their fixed headshells.....I beg to differ?If one uses these cartridges in the FR series tonearms (for which they were certainly designed) and set the ... | |
Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners BTW - If you want to know if your wire loom/TT/Preamp is up to par mount that 420str on a direct drive or idler where the motor is inches away from that cartridge. It will tell you right away if your setup is ok or has issues. Wires, TT motor rel... | |
Feedback blew my phono stage? Another clue........With the stylus not in contact with the vinyl........there is no feedback, which indicates to me that:-1. It is not an air-borne problem2. It is not EMI or RFI3. It is not motor induced4. It is not coming through the armpods5. ... | |
Nude Turntable Project Hi Banquo,Thanks for your concerns.You're right about there being space to fit Chris' long spikes under the Victor.I feel like an idiot for not seeing that before?!It is now possible for me to design a circular aluminium frame cut and welded out o... | |
Feedback blew my phono stage? Thanks all for your concern and contributions.....particularly Al and the Professor (Timeltel).I was hoping Al would have some theory behind this and the Professor's thoughts are most interesting.I had my own theory here:-The problem is structure-... | |
Feedback blew my phono stage? Please re-read the symptoms.1. There is no music playing. The turntable is not even switched on.2. It doesn't happen with most MM cartridges.3. It doesn't happen at all with the the Raven turntable. | |
Nude Turntable Project I remembered that the TT-101 motor runs hot and needs to vent.Hey Gary,I hope you didn't cover the bottom vents of the steel 'cage'....as that is where the cooling air is dragged through to pass over the motor and vent through the side?A hot Vict... | |
TW Raven Owners: Set Up Questions Most turntables (and also audio equipment) are usually supported on either three or four legs so the weight is not evenly distributed over the top of the Minus K stand. It is distributed over three or four POINT loads.Minus K simply advises that t... | |
Nude Turntable Project What on earth could it be?What on earth indeed Banquo??!I'm beginning to think there is perhaps more here than complex feedback?I've raise a new topic to see if any Gurus on A'Gon might have some ideas?Have you any thoughts?CheersHenry |
