| verdier Platine or Nottingham Analogue hyperspace @lewm I have revisited the SOTA website. This is a serious option. SOTA has a licensing agreement with Phoenix Engineering to use their PSU and Roadrunner since 2019. I think it was unavailable for a couple of years prior to 2019. I had been sear... | |
| verdier Platine or Nottingham Analogue hyperspace @lewm, Thanks for the SOTA tips. I have been been looking at options for the stock motors ever since my latest system upgrades, Eminent Technology LFT-8b and a pair of Von Gaylord Nirvana 130W tube amps. The fluctuation in speed has become audibly... | |
| verdier Platine or Nottingham Analogue hyperspace Hi @buyersum , I know this is an old thread, and I hope this finds you. I wondered if you could provide the circuit to the DC conversion on the PV stock motor?Thanks! | |
| Eminent Technology LFT 7 !! @riverdinaudio Would you describe the difference between a LFT 8 and 6? | |
| Eminent Technology LFT8B’s reversing woofer polarity I am a newbie to the LFT-8b's having installed them for a little over a month. Robert Greene's review was fresh on my mind when I reversed polarity on the woofers. Expecting some kind of transformation, I heard none! I did it twice, once a week in... | |
| Trans-Fi Terminator Tonearm: 2019 Update @slaw The condensation caused by high pressure pumps was a real concern when I was looking into a LT arm. The problem can be remedied as you have described. But where I am located, 80%-90% humidity for long stretches of time is very common. Your f... | |
| Trans-Fi Terminator Tonearm: 2019 Update There is a mini-review from a long time UK user of the Terminator who recently upgraded to the latest version which appeared in a NZ forum. What is most interesting is that Vic chimed in towards the end of the thread, and seemed to indicate th... | |
| Trans-Fi Terminator Tonearm: 2019 Update @terry9 I love your setup ritual: abstinence from caffeine and alcohol.......wow!If not a watchmaker, then surely a zen master.Wondering @slaw if the ET 2.5 is as responsive to VTA and azimuth adjustments? I am now looking at the ET arm through a ... | |
| Trans-Fi Terminator Tonearm: 2019 Update A Fozgometer is a passive measuring device. When paired with an appropriate test LP and on the correct tracks, the device can take the measurements of the left and right channel output of the cartridge. With the read out, one adjust the azimuth ac... | |
| Trans-Fi Terminator Tonearm: 2019 Update @terry9 Pray tell which air bearing TT?The Terminator seems more sensitive to all the adjustment variables, VTA, azimuth..etc, to a degree that is previously unknown to me. I seem to be adjusting VTA much more frequently. Different records rea... | |
| Trans-Fi Terminator Tonearm: 2019 Update Yeah, and I only have the regular copper run... :(@ bdp24 As for the LFT 8b’s, I’m gonna take it slow. Exploring OB subs would be the next phase, though your input is much appreciated. Of the audio companies you mentioned above some are unfamilia... | |
| Trans-Fi Terminator Tonearm: 2019 Update @bdp24 The review by R Greene is excellent, lengthy and detailed. He insisted that reversing the polarity on the woofer wire leads yielded better sound. Can you confirm?BTW, it turns out that your post on the LFT-8b was the one that lead me onto ... | |
| Trans-Fi Terminator Tonearm: 2019 Update @bdp24 Found this post from 2010, dgarretson2,438 posts06-06-2010 1:05amIf you are open to something different you might contact Vic at Trans-Fi. He mentioned to me that the London Reference is his favorite cartridge on Terminator Pro. To elimin... | |
| Trans-Fi Terminator Tonearm: 2019 Update @bdp24 There aren’t many professional reviews of both the Terminator and Salvation TT. But the few that I have read seemed all to feature the Decca cartridge. Apparently when Michael Fremer reviewed the cartrigde, it was prone to mis-tracking and ... | |
| Trans-Fi Terminator Tonearm: 2019 Update @jtsnead The Thales’ are arms that I really like, pivot arms that can maintain tangentiality. FYI, Michael Fremer recently uploaded a video of his factory visit to Thales. The fit and finish of the parts and the assembly process are more akin to... |
