| Most overrated bands +1 Slaw.....The context of time, and the, then current events, and the mood of the people collectively, or individually can't be arbitrarily removed to suit ones current bias's on past and/or, the present. If you dwell in the past while shading ... | |
| Why do turntables sound different? @terry9 and the Micro Seiki RX 5000 I bought new, then sold about 15 years ago and recently bought back two months ago , with its bearing in its original lube untouched or opened still moving a 36 pound platter effortlessly and quietly as the da... | |
| Why do turntables sound different? @terry9 No , I have not made categorical statements about how "all" bearings work.I have specifically spoke and used turntable applications with a completely different complexity for use and will not be found in your internet search’s in the gener... | |
| Why do turntables sound different? @terry9 I couldn’t disagree more. Your advocating in a turntable of all things that a higher level of friction in its bearing will not create more noise and vibration and the two are not related ? Sorry that’s ridiculous in my view. The whole idea... | |
| Why do turntables sound different? I think your looking at it the wrong way. The quality of the bearing and its ability to carry weight and force quietly and effortlessly, and the drive system to move it will determine platter weight limits. Mass isn't really thought of just in the... | |
| Why do turntables sound different? I would suggest that quiet bearings would HAVE to be low in friction, period. The greater the friction the higher the noise. Greater tolerances also lead to higher noise levels. The lubricant will aid in reducing friction between two surfaces, but... | |
| Why do turntables sound different? The bearing design comes into play , after the design of the table and materials and lower or higher mass are given. Then the appropriate bearing is designed for those criteria and used to suit specific scenario. Look at the mass and close toleran... | |
| Why do turntables sound different? They sound different for two reasons.1/ The design choices of suspended, lightweight or mass and implementation of materials choice and the drive method used. ... | |
| "Straight" talk @stringreen .... how do you tell your Foz , is actually "correct"? I'm guessing like those you shade, your final acceptance is with your ears. If it was off , your stance is no, its correct even if your ears tell you different ? Likely not , so th... | |
| "Straight" talk I believe all parameters should be given time and effort. Azimuth , I have an AZ-1 I purchased with a Graham 1.5tc arm years back. I use it with a mono lp and by ear as intended. Tried a Foz, sold it, and kept using the AZ-1 and my ears with be... | |
| What direction is VPI headed? Consumers are a fickle bunch that can quickly turn , made in the USA or not. Creating exclusivity such as is alluded to above in a shrinking market , and the constant reworking and naming of virtually the same product, in an already tighter consum... | |
| Vibration Issues / Turntable Decisions Fixing the deflection in the floor from underneath is not that difficult, its the choice that requires a bit more effort in a shorter time span physically ,but it is THE only choice that removes the problem.All others are band aids that somewhat ... | |

Its quite handy for seeing the effects of environment and handling has on the speed. I never liked swapping a belt f... | |
| Vibration Issues / Turntable Decisions I agree with Willy, support the floor from underneath first . That is your problem. Stop the amount of deflection there . Except I would support it across the width just in front of where the equipment is and support that on either end right to gr... |
