| Best turntable under $4000 I forgot to mention VPI as another brand that has its own devoted and assertive fan base. They're all deserving in one way or another, else these happy customers would not exist. | |
| Best turntable under $4000 Serenity now! | |
| What Does It Take To Surpass A SME V? Mijo, you are entitled to your guess. Your guess may be as good as mine, except I own and have used the BMC, and you own the Seta. The two units may have differences in both input impedance and current gain. Dunno. I’m only extrapolating from my p... | |
| What Does It Take To Surpass A SME V? I keep mine powered up at all times, with the MUTE switch engaged when it’s not in use. | |
| Best turntable under $4000 I would take issue with many of your suppositions, but there would be no point. Every major brand has its advocates on this forum, and questions such as the one posed by the OP are bound to elicit support for each of those brands. Or hadn’t you no... | |
| Hey, I'm looking for the highest quality recordings from the following Artists: Baker and Mulligan is terrific music. If it was on a wax cylinder and you had to wind up the Victrola it would still be worth pursuing. | |
| Anti-skate adjustment off Thorens TD 146 with Schopper wand I never owned a Thorens with that feature. Perhaps someone else can help you. | |

| Phonostage comparisons Grip tube, that’s a level of anal thinking that I have not previously encountered. Ortofon and Yamamoto make wood headshells that won’t warp enough to alter VTA by a measurable amount in any of our children’s lifetimes. I’m guessing you’re also av... | |
| Relative Importance of Analog Components Doggie, Good word, “prolix”. Your brain must be larger than the “pea size” you claim for it. | |
| Anti-skate adjustment off Thorens TD 146 with Schopper wand If you readjusted VTA by lowering the pivot to accommodate the cartridge, that’s probably what caused the problem. Happens to the best of us. | |
| Best turntable under $4000 Can you imagine if DJs used Linn? | |
| What Does It Take To Surpass A SME V? Your system may differ from that of the BMC seller in terms of downstream gain factors, but I agree you’ll most likely be ok at the 0db setting, as noted above. If not then it’s easy to switch to the 7db setting. | |
| New to vinyl question The other problem with Amazon is they kill local small businesses, like record stores. | |
| Ortofon quintet vs. cadenza series Really, you’d have to decide for yourself, but that won’t deter anyone from offering an opinion. It is quite often the case that $$$ and SQ are not proportional. |
