| Turntables: 2 Tonearms. What do you Have or Know About? “Vinyl 78s”? Where do you get them? | |
| Furutech DeMaga v Acoustic Revive RL-30 Mk III LP Demanitizers Send me a video of an LP being attracted to (or repelled by) a powerful magnet, and I’ll cave. I don’t deny your experience but I do doubt the mechanism. | |
| Furutech DeMaga v Acoustic Revive RL-30 Mk III LP Demanitizers So you are suggesting that carbon per se can be magnetized or is inherently magnetic? If there is experimental evidence to support that hypothesis, it is publishable in a good science journal. I assume this refers to carbon that is not covalently ... | |
| Review: Pure Fidelity Harmony Turntable badger, In my universal experience with other types of devices that improve speed stability, the resulting improvement in SQ is much more than worth the cost; such advancements are usually transformative. (And for some reason, the cost of such an ... | |
| Furutech DeMaga v Acoustic Revive RL-30 Mk III LP Demanitizers Describe "staggering". Since I don't believe LPs can be magnetized, I naturally don't believe I need to demagnetize them. | |
| Graham Phantom Elite vs. AS Aquilar From my observation of a Tosca, it seemed to use an outrigger contraption, a metal peg that sticks out from the pivot point toward the spindle side. That peg rides on a horizontal support strut set at a right angle to the peg, so as to keep the u... | |
| Graham Phantom Elite vs. AS Aquilar What do you like, if you don't like VTA towers? Do you like the inexact and treacherous process of finding the right VTA, holding the tonearm precisely in that selected position for dear life, and then searching for the tiny and usually weakly bi... | |
| Furutech DeMaga v Acoustic Revive RL-30 Mk III LP Demanitizers "Staggering"? | |
| The "Very Best Record Cleaning Formulation" As a movie buff, I cannot resist making a minor correction. Paul Newman as "Cool Hand Luke" did not utter the lines, "What we've got here is a failure to communicate". Those lines were spoken TO the Newman character by the prison Captain or ward... | |
| Furutech DeMaga v Acoustic Revive RL-30 Mk III LP Demanitizers And magnetism is not due to a “charge”. Sorry. I don’t know how the whole idea got started, but there are some believers for sure. Otherwise how could these companies sell demagnetizers for more than $2500? | |
| Furutech DeMaga v Acoustic Revive RL-30 Mk III LP Demanitizers Static electric charge and magnetism are two different phenomena, even though objects bearing opposite charges can attract each other. The Furutech is a deMAGNETizer, so I assume the other device is in the same category. First, you have to believe... | |
| Yamaha GT2000 with Straight Arm - Audio Note Tonearm Wire Rewire. And this (not removing all the insulation) caused a problem in balanced mode but not in SE mode? But didn't you start out with Cardas Clear, and weren't you unhappy with that wire? How does it sound now? My guess is you made an observation by U... | |
| Modwright PH 9.0X Tube Rolling Question Keep in mind, 5AR4 and 5R4 are very different electrically. 5AR4 drops 17V, whereas 5R4 drops 67V. This means that the resulting B+ voltage available to run the audio circuit is 50V higher when using the 5AR4, compared to 5R4. There are other d... | |
| The "Very Best Record Cleaning Formulation" Mijo, Where is the chlorofluorocarbon in the formulations we have been discussing? Is that compound (BAK?) you use for anti-static a CFC? | |
| OK, who is buying one? Anyone got a photo showing rounded corners? Thx. Based on this: https://www.linn.co.uk/us/turntables/lp12-50 I’d say rumors of rounded corners or of any visually distinctive design element, are wildly exaggerated. So you get a plinth made of “de... |
