| Turntable speed accuracy Sometimes threads do accidentally get 'wiped' by an administrator.It's happened to me twice and when I contacted A'Gon ........they retrieved them.Have you tried that? | |
| Turntable speed accuracy Tony,The TT-101 does in fact reach its correct speed within a revolution as seen on the Timeline.The actual specification states that 'starting time' is within 0.6sec.Starting torque: 1.2Kg/cmSpeed deviation: 0.002%Drift: 0.0004%There appears to b... | |
| Turntable speed accuracy Thanks Dover, Chris, Thuchan & Banquo,I appreciate your encouragement :^)...... John Gielgud (blush).Dover is from New Zealand.....so of course I sound like an orator to him:^)I was going to follow up with a video of the Raven AC-3 under test.... | |
| Turntable speed accuracy Your accent doesn't come through in the posts here. Accent??........I have an accent??! | |
| Turntable speed accuracy Tonywinsc,Your explanation makes a lot of sense to me....especially with my experiences with DD turntables compared to belt drive.I'll try your experiment with the one revolution......although I'm not quite sure what it proves? | |
| Turntable speed accuracy Chris,Your wish is my command :-)Please forgive the amateurish state of the movie but it was taken on my iphone4.....my first film..... and my first upload to utube!TT-101 | |
| Turntable speed accuracy My point is that inertia has to be addressed at the outset of a turntable's design, and that electronic speed control merely augments it.Mosin, as inertia is directly related to mass and friction.....are you saying that heavy platters have inhere... | |
| Turntable speed accuracy Dear Thuchan,The Victor TT-101 is quartz controlled direct drive and automatically runs at a true 33.3rpm or 45rpm.It has pitch adjustment in 6hz increments in both positive and negative direction.....but I never use this feature.The servo control... | |
| Turntable speed accuracy on all my TTs I experience a change in speed when the needle hits the record. Thuchan,On my TT-101 there is zero speed change when the cartridge hits the record. Even with the low compliance heavy tracking XV-1s and FR-7f. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Greetings Rnadell,I have 6 of the Yamamoto HS-1as which is simply my favourite headshell except with wood-bodied cartridges.Having the cartridge leads hard-wired to the shell removes another 'connection' point in the analogue chain and the wiring ... | |
| RFI from steel TV bracket? I still think there is a possibility that the interconnects that go from the preamp to the amp my not be shielded enough for the new environment. That was my initial thought which is why I wrapped them in aluminium foil which reduced the hum some... | |
| Turntable speed accuracy I didn't count the screws on the Timeline Thuchan because I thought.......although they supply a Hex bolt with it.........someone is really saying "don't open this!" :^)How does the Criterion stack up with the Timeline? That would be interesting t... | |
| RFI from steel TV bracket? When I unplug the output from the pre-amp......the hum is still coming from the speaker.But when I unplug the input to the amp (with the output still connected to the preamp)......the hum disappears :^)If you're right.......any solutions other tha... | |
| RFI from steel TV bracket? What *other* changes did you do?No other changes :^) | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Raul,Nothing ever goes wrong with the DM-58 monoblocks except for their stupid 'air-switch' to turn it on.Instead of a normal on/off switch that millions of electronic items have successfully used for decades, Halcro decided to develop a shma... |
