| 10 Inch Tonearms Viv also make 9” and longer versions of their tonearm, all the way to 14”. Viv is an underhung tonearm, entirely different from Kuzma or nearly all others, that overhang the spindle. Underhung tonearms generate much more tracking angle error than ... | |
| A Record Collection/Moral Conundrum - What Would You Do? I own about 2500 LPs. Some guys here own more, some fewer. I own zero collectible 45s or 78s; mine are all 33 rpm long playing records. Some are more valuable than others, true. My only point was that the highest possible value of an LP collect... | |
| Anyone Using A Boston TT Mat The question was whether the mat could harm an LP. I gather your answer is no, like the rest of us. | |
| Third Party turntable motors If you can afford it, I advise adopting the SOTA Eclipse motor and its speed controller accessories. | |
| Anyone Using A Boston TT Mat I use Boston Audio mat2. BA mats are the ancestors of Sakura. Yes, the surface is a bit “rough”, in the sense that it does not reflect light; it’s not shiny. But there is no way it could harm an LP, unless maybe you were to try to do harm, by usin... | |

| A Record Collection/Moral Conundrum - What Would You Do? I didn't notice anyone recommending disposal of the LPs as trash or gifting them, but perhaps I have not read the whole thread. In the US, it could work out OK to donate them to a charitable organization and take a tax deduction. I have no idea o... | |
| Triplanar Users VTA I am glad you got your information and that you can enjoy your triplanar as I do. But the way you asked your question it seemed to me and some others as though you wanted to know exactly what one setting on the circular gauge achieves “correct” VT... | |
| A Record Collection/Moral Conundrum - What Would You Do? You are probably dealing with a sociopath. I would bet you are not the only person to whom he owes money. Your handwringing is unnecessary. He abandoned his LP collection. If he comes looking for it at some later date, you can say you sold it to r... | |
| A Record Collection/Moral Conundrum - What Would You Do? I, and I am sure the more than 50 other persons who have advised you that you have zero "moral" obligation to the owner of the LPs, certainly hope you immediately removed the LPs from the wet storage box or boxes, and then removed LPs from the sle... | |
