| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Folkfreak,The Palladian is still performing exceptionally, I used to have issues with stylus muck build up but since getting an ultrasonic cleaner this is a problem I no longer have. I’m still waiting on a new arm board from EAR so I can drop the ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Great Post Jessica,It's refreshing hearing these descriptions from a musician rather than an 'audiophile' (I assume you're a musician...?)....but with something completely new (new piece, new recording) all those previous expectations of what to e... | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System As far as I know JCarr was using a Marantz TT1000 DD as a daily runner.You're right Dover...My TT-1000 by itself has a little less mass in the platter system than stock (I needed to shave down the top of the platter to get a flat surface for the g... | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Hi Folkfreak,We must be related.....Palladian cartridge, Herzan.....😁I trust you're still enjoying the Palladian..?Your supporting shelf for the turntable is most unusual....I can understand the reasoning behind it (assuming you have springy floor... | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Hi Ralph,I've noticed that both you and J.Carr have recently 'transferred' over to 'The Dark Side' by adopting the new Technics SL1200 DD turntable over your previously loved belt-drives.The Empire in your case and the Final Labs and big Micro Sei... | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Thanks Shane.....Not only 'cool'....the Herzan is a real listening experience for vinyl lovers.I dealt with Reid Whitney directly at Herzan in the States.He really knows his stuff.Tim Rather then handles the production and delivery.I paid what I h... | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Interesting thoughts Dover....Watch this VIDEO on the Doehmann Helix 1 turntable when Mark Doehmann (who was head designer at Continuum for the Caliburn and Criterion turntables and also the Cobra and Copperhead tonearms) comes in to explain it (p... | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System This would appear to show that the Herzan is effectively modifying the music signal playback due to the vibrations of the stylus by imparting a corrective response that has taken into account stylus vibration generated into the platter/TT.Not so..... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Thanks Peter,Finally someone with the 'guts' to post a Timeline video rather than just 'talk' about it 👅I applaud you...and good luck with your quest in reviving these vintage Japanese DD turntables.I have still seen no evidence that any of the mo... | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System It's seven years since I began the Nude Turntable Project and thus also formulated "The Copernican View of the Turntable System". In that time I have learned a great deal through practical experimentation and listening. The lessons are many but th... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? For those interested,,,,,HERE is a video of the TT-101 with the Timeline and three tonearms to compare against the previous video with the TT-81.And HERE is the Sutherland Engineering video demonstrating the Timeline on a belt-drive turntable with... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Richardkrebs,We've had that discussion as nauseum in the past.To me it seems more a case of 'shoot the messenger'...particularly when it comes from those who disparage it.Show the results....THEN disparage away 🙃 | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Lew,Mikey has used the Feickert Platter Speed App to test his turntables for years.Just buy the test disc directly from Feickerthttp://www.feickert.org/index.php?id=16&L=1And download the free App to your phone or iPad.The only problems I have... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Richardkrebs,Actually I would be surprised if any of the flag ship DD TTs from that era failed this test.I too would be surprised....but I still have not seen any videos subjecting any other turntables to the Timeline test with two or more tonear... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Jessica,I think the Professor was advising that the ATN155Lc stylus fits exactly into the Signet TK-7LCa (or any TK-Ea series cartridge) and was near enough to the original Line Contact on Beryllium supplied with the 7LCa.I myself stockpiled six o... |
