| The Palladian-A step beyond (To be honest, Henry’s "lack of" response to my offer to buy his Decca earlier, makes me think it is the later....... )Haha.....You may be right Chris...😝But why do you want the London Decca Reference?Have you heard one...?And what arm would you p... | |
| The Palladian-A step beyond To keep this on track, Halcro, did you use a torque wrench on your cartridge screws? The tension on cartridge screws can certainly affect sonics, for all the reasons you and others reiterate. If one were to draw conclusions regarding the efficac... | |

Your experiences should be a salutary lesson to some, about the dangers of 'over-damping'.Here is a quote from a learned dissertation on vibrations:-Damping is always present to some degree in any real system. Without it, there would be no way to ... | |

| The Palladian-A step beyond Yes I like that example of the "Spanish Infantor’s" blue eyes bluewolf......😎The saddest revelation in Fleib’s blinding adoration of the Mexican failure, is his ignorance of the terms ’First Hand’, ’Second Hand’, Third Hand’ etc.First Hand is wher... | |
| The Palladian-A step beyond Raul's last post was first hand confirmation of ethical concerns. Do you think he's lying?You should be ashamed of yourself Fleib.How does "first-hand confirmation" equate to repeating one person's grievances from years ago, without knowledge of ... | |

| Pani ... New ART-9 up and running ... I am very curious about this cart. I have heard the AT150ANV and I actually prefer my Ortofon 2M Black. The AT150ANV is now selling for ~ $1500. How is the ~ $1K ART 9 going to sound better? I sure hope it sounds better......I have a dozen vint... | |
