| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Great information as usual Hiho...πThe Victor world is indeed convoluted and full of gems..What Signet cartridge are you using?...just out of curiosity...Regards | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Aigenga,Halcro, get yourself either a single purpose turntable wall shelf (like the Solid Steel that I use) and spike the turntable to it, or a good stand and an isolation pad like an SRA or Symposium. I would put my naked TT-101 against any plint... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? But the gems, as far as pure turntables are concerned, are actually in the integrated turntables such as QL-Y7, QL-Y66F, QL-70A, etc., all have coreless motor and smooth sonic. Hiho, I'm not sure what you mean by "integrated turntables"?The QL-A7 ... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Oh yes Professor....I have already settled on the thin Jico suede mat as a 'delicious' match.However my son will have to do with the thicker Jico mat...πI know you prefer an alternate mat with your TT-71....Shane...that Victor is twice the price I... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Downunder,I'm confident that your P3 will keep going...and if it doesn't, it will be easily rectified by Chris Kimil.Despite the fact that I have to agree with Tommy about the 'risks' involved with TT-101 ownership....it is NOT because of the scar... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Sadly.....I think I have to admit that Tommy of TopClass is correct in his assessment which inspired this Thread.But perhaps mainly in relation to the Victor TT-101...π±My TT-101 has been with my Tech for over two months because it suddenly develop... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? I thought the 64Fx was aluminium whilst the 64S is stainless steel.... | |
| tonearms with VTA-towers for true "VTAF" I certainly hope that vinyl reproduction is more "robust" than what perfectionist insist on for alignment accuracy and optimization for all other parameters. It would be nice to own something like the SMARTractor and an oscilloscope for setting az... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? the fault is now constant, not intermittentThis is good news Lewm. At least a Tech can now 'trouble-shoot' it for you.Can you describe the exact symptoms....? | |
| tonearms with VTA-towers for true "VTAF" Larry's point is valid....but instead of talking theory, let's talk real numbers.On even the shortest 9" tonearm, if one raises the VTA by 2mm it changes the overhang by 0.008mm.If one raises the VTA by 5mm it changes the overhang by 0.05mm.Does a... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? The Glanz top and very rare models: MF61 and MF71LIf the 31L is so good i can expect 61 and 71 must be simply amazing. Not necessarily.....I had the 31L, 51L, 71L and M5 (integrated headshell) in my system all at the same time....HERENot only was ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Welcome to the Victor 'cheer squad' Jbethree and Fleib.With the Professor, Griffithds and 'your truly' also belonging, it is not such an exclusive club anymore....and indeed, it needn't be as there seems to be hundreds of Z1 and X1 bodies in Japan... | |

| Experiences buying used cartridges I've bought over 40 used or NOS cartridges and styli with only a handful of disappointments.Of course some of those cartridges did not impress or appeal to me and I on-sold them at virtually no loss.I find that many classic MMs of the '70s and 80s... | |
