| My kiseki Blackheart nightmare. Nandric, “Fukadu “? Is that name real or merely very funny? | |
| On ''what there is'' Kant was quite a wit.But there is a truth in that story. As a scientist I can tell you that the same experiment gets done over again about every 20 to 25 years. What changes is the technology used to perform the experiment. Old techniques are repl... | |
| Doshi 2.1 The MC inputs feed into a JFET which acts to boost the output signal voltage of the cartridge. From there, the signal goes through the exact same MM phono circuit that is also connected via the MM inputs. In other words, you DO get the tube circ... | |
| On ''what there is'' I think those guys tell us more about "what was" than about "what is". This is also valuable information. | |
| Possibly Dumb Question re:Battery as a power supply Drop out due to VR is usually dependent upon many factors including current draw most importantly. I built a PS for my Klyne 6LX which has regulators on board the audio chassis. The PS needed to put out not more than 4-6V above the needed regulate... | |
| Possibly Dumb Question re:Battery as a power supply Terry, you make some very good points, which make me wonder what is the voltage rating of the battery in the Clearaudio kit. You can’t add regulation, which is needed to hold V constant, to an unregulated 12V output and still have 12V downstream f... | |
| DAC Dilemma By the same token, could analog issues be discussed on the Digital Forum? Most LPs produced since the late 80s have undergone digital processing somewhere along the line. | |
| DAC Dilemma Pascon, I guess you’re saying that euphonic makes you feel euphoric. You digital guys get along much better than we analog guys. I have rarely if ever seen such a consensus of opinion on the Analog Forum. | |
| Questions on Overhang/Cartridge Alignment using Dr Feikert Protractor on VPI Classic 3 I can’t say I agonize over it, so no. | |
| Questions on Overhang/Cartridge Alignment using Dr Feikert Protractor on VPI Classic 3 Chakster, AS is even more precise than the Feickert, if you want ultimate accuracy, and if you have the patience to use it as directed. It's a real precision instrument. If you want me to cite the many ways in which it is more precise (if used p... | |
| Step by Step How to Use a Digital Multimeter / Oscilloscope for Azimuth Adjustments Interesting report. My experience was also with a Koetsu, an Urushi. What I reported above was what I observed when I used azimuth to alter channel balance, just to see if what others described was true, that azimuth has very little effect on bala... | |
| Questions on Overhang/Cartridge Alignment using Dr Feikert Protractor on VPI Classic 3 I have both a Feickert (the original version) and an Acoustic Sounds protractor. (I own the more complex predecessor to the SMARTractor; I'd rather have the latter, but I ain't spending another $600 to acquire it.) Both are fine tools for the jo... | |
| Step by Step How to Use a Digital Multimeter / Oscilloscope for Azimuth Adjustments Mijostyn, You wrote, "all you have to do is get a test record with a test tone equal in both channels, reverse the leads on one channel at the cartridge, put your meter on AC and adjust the azimuth for the lowest voltage."Obviously, your method ... | |
| Possibly Dumb Question re:Battery as a power supply Dear Mijostyn and anyone else, Did you not read my response to Noromance’s warning about noxious gases? Optima batteries are sealed, have no vents, and do not emit anything, let alone noxious gases. From the website:"Sealed absorbent glass mat (AG... | |
| Step by Step How to Use a Digital Multimeter / Oscilloscope for Azimuth Adjustments newguru, Seems you may be correct that your meter is not sensitive enough, but the spec for output voltage of your cartridge (2.2mV at 5/cm/sec) alone is not the final arbiter of whether or not your meter would work. Because we don't know what is... |
