| What Does It Take To Surpass A SME V? Hi, Albert. Nice to hear from you, and I hope you are well. Happy New Year. Whart, that’s a beautiful system. I assume you have no feedback problem with the horns aimed so directly at your TT? Which Allnic phono stage is seen on the shelf below y... | |
| New to vinyl question VTF can easily get out of whack during transit with most tonearms. Do you have a stylus force gauge? If not, get one before “fiddling” with VTF, is my advice. | |
| Phonostage comparisons In all cases, did you load the cartridge at 47K ohms? | |
| What Does It Take To Surpass A SME V? Mulveling, What is there about the Korf tonearm that leads you to believe it might outperform an SME V? What I see is that neither the pivot point nor the counterweight lie in the plane of the LP surface. Nor does the CW appear to be decoupled f... | |
| EMT 948 w/ 929 tonearm. Please forgive me for appearing to beat what should already be a dead horse, but how did lowering the tonearm, presumably at its pivot, fix the problem of skipping? | |
| What Does It Take To Surpass A SME V? I think you perceive hostility where none is intended. I guess when you write that you regularly encounter an SP10R that is served by a Glanz tonearm on a pod, you are not referring to your own system, because you also said that you do not use an... | |
| EMT 948 w/ 929 tonearm. For what cartridge are you setting VTF at 2.5g? Have you checked that there is nothing to prevent the tonearm from making a full, unimpeded sweep across the surface of an LP? Very often, the tonearm wiring can be an impediment. Also check to se... | |
| What Does It Take To Surpass A SME V? Pindac, Interestingly, when you are angry, at me or anyone else, I find your posts much more comprehendable. Not that I would deliberately piss you off. So, if you agree that the tonearm pivot and the turntable bearing need to be tightly and rigi... | |
| EMT 948 w/ 929 tonearm. Can you provide a little more detail for those who are not familiar with the 948 or the 929? What is set at 250g, for example. And etc. | |
| Looking for some turntable/tonearm/cartridge guidance I am not familiar with Michell TT s, but what is so special about the arm board that prevents you from finding a machinist who could make one to your specs? It’s probably just a matter of drilling a hole in the right location on a blank arm board.... | |
| What Does It Take To Surpass A SME V? Pindac, no one is telling you what to do. This is a hobby. Messing around is fun. Arguing politely is also fun and sometimes enlightening. Simon Yorke TTs are other exceptions to the rule broken by the Onedof with its outboard arm pod. But I think... | |
| What Does It Take To Surpass A SME V? Whew! | |
| What Does It Take To Surpass A SME V? Raul does not need an apologist. He is what he is. By all accounts of those who have met him in person, he is indeed a charming and amiable person. Not always does he behave that way on line. I feel it's OK to call him out on his behavior at tho... | |
| What is the best way to clean Vinyl? The OP is on a beer budget yet he’s being offered single malt scotch solutions to his “problem”. | |
| What Does It Take To Surpass A SME V? I totally agree with Mijostyn about the advice that the tonearm should be tightly coupled to the turntable bearing assembly. The two should move in unison and never in relation to one another. However, many persons have built these very heavy, v... |
