| Linear tracking turntables, whatever happened? ^^^^ It´s actually child´s play after a while. Oh, I did forgot the air filter altogether, but it lasted for ten years LOLTerry, you are welcome.

| Linear tracking turntables, whatever happened? Oh dear ... your TT/TA combo must be absolutely fantastic, Terry. Air bearing platter and TA - Ö -Reminds me of the Dr. Forsell´s Air Reference way back in 1990 and sounded just great ... oh those were the days ... I use maglev bearing on the spin... | |
| Linear tracking turntables, whatever happened? Terry, maybe you should have taken over for new production ; ) Interesting tweaks you have made there. You mean beam is manifold ? Then, may I ask how you have managed install the support for the other end ? To back of the plinth ? Maybe you could... | |
| Cartridge Upgrade ...AT ART-9? Raul, your post was meant to be some other as I never have talked ´bout Technics cartridges. I agree that ART7 may very well be even better than ART9 because it´s very low output 0.12 mV. But it needs a very HQ preamp to get the best out it. For O... | |
| Cartridge Upgrade ...AT ART-9? ^^ Old hat wars again :_) | |
| Linear tracking turntables, whatever happened? Good morning Lew,Back to the business. Upsetting is your word not mine. Nothing upsets me after 40+ yrs in Hi-Fi, only prejudice and ignorance makes me laugh really. I never mentioned frictionless either on functionality of LT TAs. There´s a hell ... | |
| Linear tracking turntables, whatever happened? ^- :_)It never fails to amaze me when people post comments on Hi-Fi gadgets they have never seen live in action not to mention heard.FYI the best air bearing TAs do not need fancy devices such as servos to show the way, the groove takes over. So a... | |

| Cartridge Upgrade ...AT ART-9? Orto tends to get sibilant in certain arms/set-ups as can be read online in other forums. Buy a (vintage) Moving Flux instead, like GLANZ MFG-51L. ART9 is a magnificent performer but needs 200 hours to really sing IME and THEN it´s very hard to "b... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Frogman, many years ago I had the AT-ANV150 and it truly was excellent, very very balanced sound, the high register in particular, one of the very finest I have experienced. But it lacked something in the mid range, detail and nuances. I never wen... |
