| Spindle oil El, I'm not familiar with your table but once had a Technics linear table with direct drive and a motor driven linear arm. They were all the rage back in the early eighties but fell out of favor with the high end crowd after proponents of belt dri... | |
| balanced is inherently flawed OK, I'll come clean. I knew going in that my position was indefensible. After being involved with electronics on a daily basis for the past 25 years, including 10 years teaching circuit theory, I knew that if one took the position that balanced is... | |
| Spindle oil Sean, your seeming inability to even hint at the possibility that you might be wrong makes it impossible to discuss this in a logical manner. I'm leaving the topic after this.First you claimed that the stylus was "slicing" through the vinyl like a... | |
| balanced is inherently flawed 9rW, you simply reworded your previous post and made the same challenges. Please see my previous response. | |
| balanced is inherently flawed Rats, even though I agree that some of the issues raised by the "balanced is better" crowd are nonsense, I still found it to be entertaining. | |
| balanced is inherently flawed Do I detect a note of sarcasm?First, I have credentials but that has nothing to do with it. All the education, qualifications, references, and published papers in the world won't change the fact that either I'm right or I'm wrong. Even an uneducat... | |
| Spindle oil Sean, while I respect your opinion on most matters, after looking into this a little more deeply, just about everything you said turns out to be wrong.Your diamond cutting glass analogy makes no sense. The stylus isn't "slicing" through the vinyl,... | |
| Spindle oil Sean, I'm suprised to see this side of you. Now that you have been proven wrong, you've decided to go on the attack labeling designs that deviate from what you consider to be proper as "piss-poor?" If the platter rotates at a constant speed and co... | |
| Spindle oil Sean, I believe it is a bit more complex than just choosing a lubricant based on how slippery it is.From the Teres website: "The bearing is designed with large amount of surface area to maximize viscous damping. The oil in the bearing exerts a smo... | |
| Spindle oil Those of you who recommend a particular lubricant as ideal for all spindles are simply wrong. Look at your car. Why do we use one thing in the motor, something different in the transmission, something different on the wheel bearings, and so forth.... | |
| Which Room has More Potential? Now that your wife is gone you can close those 3 doorways with anything you want! | |
| Spindle oil The type of lubricant depends on the type of bearing. I would stick with what the manufacturer uses. | |
| Avantgarde UNO's 2.2 advice needed Your room is plenty big but you will have to be flexible on it's arrangement to get the Unos to do what they are capable of. Ejlif is right, if you plop them down where your old speakers were and sit in the same spot you will likely be dissapointe... | |
| Best way to store LPs? If you store them flat they will warp. | |
| What other speakers would you consider for this .. Do you have a budget or is money no object? |
