| Cartridge, Compliance, try what in my JVC UA-7082 Arm? Chak, If you say you are not the person selling the Victor cartridge in the eBay ad posted here by someone else, I will believe you, but the use of the English language in that ad is very reminiscent of your phraseology, and you are located in St ... | |
| Should the Tone Arm be Removed When Installing Cartridge? millercarbon, I am not certain of your intended message. Are you disagreeing with me, in that you think the tonearm should be removed to install a cartridge? I've never ever even considered doing such a thing, but if I did, I would then be very ... | |
| Should the Tone Arm be Removed When Installing Cartridge? Does the tonearm have a detachable headshell? If so, I see no reason to remove the whole tonearm in order to install a cartridge. If not, I still don't think it's necessary. In fact, there is some advantage to leaving it mounted because you can ... | |
| Cartridge, Compliance, try what in my JVC UA-7082 Arm? I apologize, Mijo, if it seems I am picking on you. It's nothing personal, and you seem like a nice guy who just believes differently from me on many audiophile issues. But here is the result of a Google search for "titanium bicycle forks". Ther... | |
| Cartridge, Compliance, try what in my JVC UA-7082 Arm? Yes, I guess that's why the SR71 Blackbird spy plane was made of titanium; it's soooo rubbery. | |
| Cartridge, Compliance, try what in my JVC UA-7082 Arm? The seller could be Chakster himself. Not that there is anything wrong with that, except.... | |
| First Moving Coil (MC) Cartridge Acquisition For $1000, you might want to consider the Audio Technica ART7 or ART9. The former has much lower output than the latter, but either might work with your Herron 2A. I own an ART7 (.12mV output), and I have more than ample gain with my Manley Stee... | |
| Anyone know what's up with Shelter Japan? Saw them in stores in Tokyo as recently as last June, which may or may not prove anything. Maybe they’re concentrated on the Asian market. Or maybe there is a problem with US distribution, or both. | |
| "Cars are Cars" by Paul Simon...are my channels reversed? I’d start at the cartridge pins, first of all. | |
| "Cars are Cars" by Paul Simon...are my channels reversed? I don't happen to own the particular Paul Simon album in question, but you might try playing some albums that feature jazz trio or quartet. In such an ensemble, the pianist is typically on the left and the drummer on the far right, with the bass ... | |
| "Cars are Cars" by Paul Simon...are my channels reversed? You are the best qualified to determine whether or not your channels are reversed. Did you check your system from front to back, for that problem? What did you find? If there's no obvious error in your hook-ups, and if other vinyl sounds correct... | |
| Vinyl cleaning and alcohol I remember some of those threads. It turned out that some guys actually use undiluted alcohols. I'm not sure I would recommend that or do it myself. I have always used a solution that is about 10% pure ethanol, laboratory grade, not drug store bo... | |
| TT, 12" Tonearm. Who tried and ended up preferring 12" arm? That was funny. | |
| Which phono section to buy: match table or cartridge? Buy the best phono stage you can afford. Matching to the brand of either your turntable or your cartridge is absolutely unnecessary. However, if I am correct in my belief that the Maestro is a high output MM cartridge, this means you only need a... | |
| Tonearm ...... Acos Lustre GST-801 ..... Yea/Nay Glass shelf??? Why? |
