| Tonearm mount on the plinth or on Pillar ? Haha...Yes Chris, I remember that from years ago.Everyone can try that test.Just place your mouth close to the cartridge while playing a record and yell at the cartridge/tonearm.If airborne sound waves are ever going to be heard it should be under... | |
| Tonearm mount on the plinth or on Pillar ? Under circumstances where we fire sound at a material.....Are you saying that the material will ONLY vibrate at its resonance frequency, assuming that this frequency is present in the sound?If any other sound frequency is used there will be NO vib... | |
| Tonearm mount on the plinth or on Pillar ? Now here is a serious new turntable...http://www.analogplanet.com/content/dietrich-brakemeirs-apolyt-turntable-aims-be-worlds-finest-and-m...Dietrich knows a thing or two about turntables, arms and cartridges.And gosh....what are those?They look l... | |
| Tonearm mount on the plinth or on Pillar ? Accoustical excitation at frequencies other than the materials resonant frequency will result in NO vibration in the material, regardless of the energy level of this excitation?"Acoustical excitation"....? I'm unfamiliar with that term in the scie... | |
| Tonearm mount on the plinth or on Pillar ? If you think air borne vibration is not a problem you are up against the issue of the real world. No matter how dead you think a thing might be, it will always have some motion, some vibration. This is an uneducated assumption.Most people follow t... | |
| Tonearm mount on the plinth or on Pillar ? The platter and arm must move in the same plane and frequency, should there be any movement at all. Likely this would be airborne induced. That is the most unlikely scenario. Airborne induced vibrations in the platter/tonearm/cartridge synergy are... | |
| Tonearm mount on the plinth or on Pillar ? I propose that Ralph be enrolled on the calendar of saints. His restraint is supernatural - a miracle thrice renewed!!Yes indeed...because Ralph can, with the same conviction that he demonstrates his turntable theories....can postulate that OTL va... | |
| Tonearm mount on the plinth or on Pillar ? We found that by installing a brace between the the mount for the platter bearings and the base of the arm that there was further benefit. Now this is illuminating and perhaps needs an explanation from you about what you believe could possibly be ... | |
| Tonearm mount on the plinth or on Pillar ? Since the cartridge is essentially the interface, its stylus must make up the difference between the motion of the pillar and that of the surface of the platter."The motion of the pillar"......There you go again. Nobody is claiming that a "moving ... | |
| Tonearm mount on the plinth or on Pillar ? Pani,Perhaps you should take note of an audio designer who actually designs and sells tonearms and turntables.....Someone like Frank Kuzma who makes the 4 Point and Airline tonearms and whose top-of-the-line turntable uses a separate armpod.I’d be... | |
| Tonearm mount on the plinth or on Pillar ? I've explained it twice in this thread already. What part of my prior explanations are unclear? The 'noise' is actually introduced when the arm and platter bearings are able to move in different planes and rates. This is what happens when a separa... | |
| Tonearm mount on the plinth or on Pillar ? Sorry Atmasphere,I missed the point about the Triplanar and the Technics 1200.I don't see how attaching the tonearm to the plinth can affect the 'noise'?Surely the 'noise' is a function of the isolation, the tonearm pod mass, fixity, density and m... | |
| Tonearm mount on the plinth or on Pillar ? I'm not sure that the cutting process tests can be transposed to the playback field.After all.....you use direct drive and linear-tracking arm in the cutting process but you prefer to use belt-drive and pivoted arm for your playback.Seems counter-... | |
| Tonearm mount on the plinth or on Pillar ? As Fleib writes.....which tables have you measured?This would seem like excellent scientific data and would resolve this argument once and for all.Could you please list all the tables, arms and cartridges and what they were sitting on Atmasphere? ... | |
| Tonearm mount on the plinth or on Pillar ? Interesting ToHo stuff.I was aware of their tonearm pods (as Thuchan has one)...but I never saw their turntable cast-iron supports before.Looks quite similar to my new support 👀http://i.imgur.com/ddKNHVx.jpgInteresting cutting lathe herehttp://i.i... |
