| SOTA Millennia - Comments? Don't want to add too much noise to the thread .Sirspeedy,I just bought the said German turntable recently and it's a major purchase for me, biggest in fact so there was some emotion invested in the decision. I obviously took your earlier brackete... | |
| SOTA Millennia - Comments? With apology to the OP as i've no prior experience with SOTA and there's no local importer here until a few weeks ago.To Sirspeedy,I have no problem with Cosmos being a better deck to your ears but i take offence with your commment which implies t... | |
| SOTA Millennia - Comments? I'm intrigued too. Please do tell about this 'emperor's new cloth' German made turntable. | |
| Raven One Owners - Last Table? Compared to a few months ago, i think Euro has weakeaned quite a lot against the Greenback so I don't think it's currency exchange issue. I think the local retail price in Germany has gone up by a fair bit too.http://www.metaquotes.net/forex/eurusd/ | |
| Raven One Owners - Last Table? I want to chime in with the others and compliment you on your choice. Hopefully the wait is not too long for you as I waited 4 months for mine. Otono-Edison cart is quite a left field choice and i've never heard of it.Looking forward to your revie... | |
| Raven One Owners - Last Table? Another happy Raven One owner for 2.5 month now and i'm using a 10.5 inch Jelco S shaped arm which supposedly has better spec than the shorter Vivid 2(Jelco) arm. But the Jelco is an interim arm until my Phantom II arrives. i think you should keep... | |
| Best Phono Stage within 2000 $ Essential Audio wrote :Regular Jelco tonearms make use of a tip bearing in the vertical axis, whereas the Feickert runs on a special type of ball bearing. This improves bass control and gives more punch. Additionally, it has an oil damper that the... | |
| TW-Acustic Raven I looked at both table lines and my next table is going to be the Fickert, do the research and you will find that out. I am not saying the Raven isn't a great table, however, the Fickert is also a remarkable table and the price differential is qui... | |
| Best Phono Stage within 2000 $ Actually you can also get the Jelco 10.5S in all black like mine here. http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a52/jasnev/Hi%20Fi%20and%20Horology/OrtofonKB.jpgBut you don't get a phono cable for that price. The pinkish Jelco cable can be had separately ... | |
| Best Phono Stage within 2000 $ Actually I should qualify my earlier statement as they look identical rather than are confirmed identical. | |
| Best Phono Stage within 2000 $ Why pay US$1000 for a "Feickert" 10.5 S Jelco arm when you get the same thing for much less without the "Feickert" at the front from the link provided by Hdm above.Here is mine (10.5 S)on my Raven One which is identical.http://www.feickert.de/engl... | |
| TW Acustic Raven One owners Hi Mark/Stiltskin,Really looking forward to pairing the Phantom and the Raven 1 this year and I will definitely get a MintLp. Judging the feedbacks from you and Gabriele, it's well worth the trouble for very minimal outlay.Both Ortofon 309D and 30... | |
| TW Acustic Raven One owners Hi Gabriele,First of all Happy New Year to you, Mark and Dave as it's altready 2009 here in Australia. ;)Thanks for the tip about loosening the Stillpoint feet BTW.I got my Raven One just before you after a 4 months wait. Worth the long wait and s... | |
| Cardas Din plug compatible with Graham Phantom II? Thanks for pointing out the obvious to me.I think i read it somewhere here that the SME din pin configuration is reverse but not the custom Graham. | |
| New Bel Canto Gear at RMAF Simon, Can you elaborate more on your ringing endorsement of mk2 over mk1? Did you have Ref 1000 mk1 before?Thanks,jasper |
