Who will survive? One last table til I die.
I'm with Rushton, too. Trouble is that someone like me who is not too well versed on some of the topics might read one of Raul's posts and come to some erroneous conclusions. If one is compelled, maybe some simple response such as "Raul's opinion ...

Good grief, Raul, get over yourself.

Raul- If you really wanted someone like me to learn, how 'bout trying to teach by example? As you say, this forum is about learning- help me learn by telling me of products that exemplify your points. Maybe even let me know what you have so that I...

Raul- Would love to test it for three months. Everyone else uses their system as their reference point- what is YOUR reference point for your own personal state-of-the-art, zero feedback, solid state amp/pre/phono?After all, I wouldn't want to sta... 
How to dismantle Well Tempered for shipping?
Rap- Yes, leave it in the cup. You'll need to stuff the cup with packing material to keep the disc in place. Pack the arm carfully so that it doesn't put any strain on the string.Also, the manual says rubbing alcohol to clean up the fluids. Good L... 
How to dismantle Well Tempered for shipping?
Rap- Yes, you're on the right track with pouring out as much as you can, then wiping out as much as possible with a paper towel, then clean up the residue with either rubbing alcohol or denatured. (Can't remember which- let me check on that for yo...

Rap- There is hole for an allen head set screw on the right side of the plinth. The set screw loosens the arm for VTA or removal. Take the appropriate sized allen wrench, loosen the screw a couple of turns and gently pull the arm up out of it's ho...

Audio999- Fact is that Raul needs to take considerable time to review all of his posts to create a theoretical system that would be consistent with what he has already written. This could take awhile...

Audio999- Raul is not going to tell you. Ever. He's not going to tell you the name of the analog testing company he claims he has, either. Ever. Nor will he provide the serial number of the Schroder arm he claims he has to Frank Schroder himself s...

Fernando- Thanks, but my question is about the apparent paradox of the WT table having soft rubber feet when the conventional wisdom is to have unsuspended tables sitting on a hard surface. Other unsuspended tables typically have hard or even spik... 
$800 Cartridge Shootout and Upgrade Path
I'm a bit confused about putting an unsuspended table on a soft surface. My Well Tempered Classic (unsuspended) has a polyurethane rubber type of "footie" over the feet and the factory has told me that it sounds best this way. I've always presumed...

Rauliruegas- You keep going 'round and 'round and 'round until we're all numb- are you really John Kerry?

Larry- It's a little off-topic and I know that this came up in a thread somewhere, but where might one find suitable mylar and what materials/method do you use to attach the ends to form a loop? Got a Well Tempered with an Origin Live DC motor and...
