| Moving from MM to MC You will notice a decrease in sound quality. | |
| Why are my woofers pumping? OP. This is all bunk. Just enjoy the music. | |

| Why are my woofers pumping? Your problem is most likely a combination of ununiform belt thickness, not precise pulleys, motor rumble, not precise bearing. They all combine and create a mechanical shimmer in the turntable's suspension. While playing the runout groove and watc... | |

| Why are my woofers pumping? @atmasphere Huh? | |
| Why are my woofers pumping? These mismatches exist and you’ll never figure out why, nor will you ever fix it. Just enjoy the music. SME V is arguably the best tonearm in the world ever made. And Lyra makes superb high end MC cartridges, even if I’m not the biggest fan. Rumbl... | |
| Why are my woofers pumping? There’s nothing you can do. It's normal. SME V has already a very low effective mass of 9.5g. Lyra is a very heavy cartridge at almost 12 grams. It’s compliance is 12 at 100Hz, so probably 21-23 at 10Hz.Just live with it and when the stylus wears ... | |

| Fidelity Research FR-64x @chakster When it comes to passive preamps, there is an absolute, they’re laughably bad! Think it through, it’s a simple Ohm’s law. You want low source output impedance (<200R) and high amp input impedance (>10K). So what happens when you pu... | |
| Fidelity Research FR-64x @chakster Nelson doesn't sell passive preamps nor makes them. He only sells active preamps. B1 buffer was meant for DIY amateurs.People who actually design circuits laugh at passive preamps. If this is something you want to use, go ahead. But you ... | |
| Fidelity Research FR-64x @chakster You go ahead and enjoy it! I'll just sit back and lol. | |
| Fidelity Research FR-64x Voltage amp current amp who cares? And none of this has anything to do with gain. I don't need answers from the manufacturer or that thread, I haven't lost my mind yet.Feeding a signal from source to amp through a volume control pot will massively... | |
| Fidelity Research FR-64x Nelson knows his stuff, I'm not questioning the legitimacy of a buffer. But no way is a buffer better than an active linestage. And believe me, he knows this very well. Buffers are good for amateurs as they are simple to make and don't mess things... | |
| Fidelity Research FR-64x It’s not a passive preamp. It’s a buffer. Passive preamps are horrendous. They have massive distortion and completely bastardize the original signal. They are complete and utter nonsense. Connecting source directly to amp will sound horrendous. In... |
