| Garrard 301 - Project “Something I would strongly consider first is just the upgraded bearing and the stock platter. The sound is so damned fun that way. Lively, dynamic, toe-tapping fun. ” 👍 | |
| Garrard 301 - Project @tomic601 Congratulations on Koetsu Urushi Black. That’s a beautiful cart! As Koetsu being no longer made, I approached my purchase for the history and the legacy. Thought long and hard about one of the stone bodies cart but couldn’t quite exte... | |
| Garrard 301 - Project “I’m inferring from the sable color that you are buying your 301 from Matthew Taylor. ” @noromance Correct. As per my dealer, I am getting a fully restored 301. I entrusted my dealer for this project. He has helped shaped my system for past 5 y... | |
| Garrard 301 - Project @noromance Thanks, my tone arm is Reed 3P - 10.5” with Cocobolo arm wand. @fsonicsmith I thought about aftermarket bearing and platter but my dealer suggested that I should hear ‘stock’ 301 first and then start tweaking the TT with aftermarke... | |
| Aurender n200, talk me out of signing on the dotted line @wlutke Thanks for the clarification. My last post was to ensure that you’ve exhausted all the options to maximize the performance of U2 Mini. Go for N200 and call it a day! | |
| Aurender n200, talk me out of signing on the dotted line “It’s a bit grainy and I attribute that to the Lumin u2 mini, internet radio and Spotify sources” @wlutke N200 is a great streamer. However, you’re feeding U2 Mini with low resolution (mp3) streams. Both Web Radio and Spotify are low fidelity an... | |
| Garrard 301 - Project I am counting on it, Jim @jperry | |
| Garrard 301 - Project Update: Just picked up Koetsu Rosewood Signature Platinum after hearing the news on Koetsu closing their doors for good! | |
| Thank You Fumihiko Sugano and Koetsu Well, I just picked up Koetsu Rosewood Signature Platinum as probably my first and only purchase from Koetsu’s fine line of carts. | |
| Thank You Fumihiko Sugano and Koetsu @larryi I just spoke to a dealer, it’s official. Koetsu is no longer being made. Whatever current stock dealer / distributor on hand, is all up for grabs. Once it’s gone, you’re left with re-tipped or used carts from previous owners. | |
| Thank You Fumihiko Sugano and Koetsu “Koetsu no more” Sad news indeed, if it’s true. May be it’s time to score a deal on your choice of Koetsu cartridge. I always wanted to own one but never got around. There are still plenty of choices out there to experience the exquisite sound. | |
| Qobuz vs. Tidal I am with others here, never had any issues with Qobuz. My Aurender’s Conductor App offers seamless integration of both Qobuz and Tidal. And I prefer Qobuz over Tidal based on my genre preferences. @wsrrsw Thank you for sharing your playlists, ... | |
| Garrard 301 - Project @jperry That Shindo bearing looks amazing! Do you recommend the Shindo bearing + platter upgrade. And does one still need a mat with Shindo platter. | |
| Garrard 301 - Project @jperry Thank you for the recommendation. I haven’t thought of height clearance if I ever go down the route of replacing the bearing. | |
| Garrard 301 - Project Update: Plinth has been ordered and it comes with M6 threaded nuts, no feet. I got one recommendation so far for Stillpoints footers. Are there any other footers that I should consider that would help decouple and drain any unwanted energy. I woul... |
