| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? lewm02-16-2016 8:05pmOne of us...I just ordered my replacement feaux MN6042 from JP. Since my Mk3 is working perfectly, Bill Thalmann advised me to just keep it for a spare, but it's tempting to wonder whether the Mk3 could perform even better wi... | |
| Lyra Kleos Repair Sorry. I won my PayPal dispute against him, but it was only for what I had to pay to get my cartridges back, not the $1K in destroyed property he subsequently kept. I can send you endless email chains of him trying to get me to pay for work I ex... | |
| Lyra Kleos Repair A lot of people report good experiences with him, and in the grand scheme of things I don't think the typical retip is all that difficult. I'm just saying when things go wrong with him, they go very wrong. | |
| Lyra Kleos Repair analogluvr02-01-2016 3:08amI have a Lyra Delos that needed rebuild so I contacted audioquest. The price for rebuild was more than I paid for it new. Total ripoff. I sent to Andy at the needle clinic but have not got it back yet. Best of luck. And... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Nothing worse than an intermittent problem, so it was good you made it permanent. I'm in NYC. Nothing here yet. | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Interesting. The SC3042 IC is similar to the MN6042. Not sure it's worth while, but happy to have the conversation. | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? rower 01-22-2016 1:19pmI still have question about the other chips inside the MK3. Are they easily found, not as important or just don't ever die?Someone like Bill T would have better first-hand knowledge, but in my research nearly all the example... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? I don't know what the genesis of this friction is, but I'd be very appreciative to not be used as cannon fodder in it. I'm just a guy trying to save good tables, and perhaps make them a bit better in the process. No more, no less. | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? No problem. Thanks for letting me know! | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? The MN6042 is used in the MK2 versions of the SL-1300/1400/1500/150, the SP-15, SP-10 MK3, and SP-02. Lewm: not millions by any stretch. The nominal frequency through the pitch chip is 262.080KHz. This is also where I'm seeing ~8Hz variation ac... | |
| fabulous Technics EPC-100 series re-tip There was really no doubt in my mind that he would, but I wanted to afford him a reasonable amount of time to reconsider. I wanted the broken bits back so I could open them up to see how they're assembled, as I've it in my mind to see if I can re... | |
| fabulous Technics EPC-100 series re-tip I sent Andy two P100CMK4 and a P205CMK4 for suspension repair. I was very clear to him, and stated twice, that only suspension repair was to be performed, and the original cantilevers had to remain intact. The two P100CMK4 were NOS, and the P205CM... |
