| No right channel in new cartridge It’s probably a good idea to get your money back before you insult the seller via the Internet. I’m sure he can read, too. | |
| No right channel in new cartridge If you got your money back, or if you eventually get it back, I wouldn’t condemn the seller. It is very plausible that the cartridge worked fine in his hands, both channels. | |
| No right channel in new cartridge tochsii, It's going to cost money if you initiate any action with SS or VAS, so be sure in advance that the seller will cover those costs. After all, you are doing him a favor as well; he needs to know what's wrong, so he can make an informed dec... | |
| Do 45 rpm 12" LPs really sound better than 33 rpm? Your “tests” prove nothing that anyone else can use for guidance. | |
| No right channel in new cartridge Chakster, is there a website where defective cartridges are sold exclusively?i just wonder how you know so definitely the value.tochsi, my own opinion of the sumiko is not high, even with 2 good channels. Do what you like, but I’d take the opportu... | |
| Do 45 rpm 12" LPs really sound better than 33 rpm? I'm glad most people agreed with Mike Lavigne, even though I said it first. I don't care if Mike gets the credit; Mike is good company in a discussion of this sort, because he has heard more "stuff", both software and hardware, than most any of u... | |
| Do 45 rpm 12" LPs really sound better than 33 rpm? The discussion is degenerating into a series of inconclusive anecdotes. If you take the single master tape from a modern studio and from it create both a 33 and a 45, on the same lathe using the same source of vinyl on the same day and then play t... | |
| Do 45 rpm 12" LPs really sound better than 33 rpm? Differences that favor the original 33 version over the re-issue 45 version could of course be related simply to the quality level of the respective manufacturing processes. Those are variables we cannot control for, and the data are worthless fo... | |
| Do 45 rpm 12" LPs really sound better than 33 rpm? What is your question? The physics dictates that 45 rpm is superior, but you won’t always hear the difference if the source material is flawed. However 33 should not sound BETTER than 45. Possibly your turntable is having issues at 45 rpm. The aut... | |
| No right channel in new cartridge Tochsi, yes, swap red with white, then blue with green, then hook it up and listen, and don’t let anyone make you anxious. Sounds like you are dealing with a responsible seller and it’s still possible that the fault lies in your system. (I have pu... | |
| Tell me about Thales TTT compact turntable It’s “Lew M”But why is his lack of interest in a Thales tonearm a loss to the OP, and especially why is it a loss to me? | |
| Tell me about Thales TTT compact turntable Whatthe, the OP explicitly stated he is interested in the Thales turntable only. He has no intention of purchasing a Thales tonearm.Pani, if you love your Garrard, I think you’d prefer another idler or DD turntable over most belt-drives. And what’... | |
| Retip for zyx To the person who suggested that I should compare a retipped universe to an OEM universe, I can’t do that because I only have one universe cartridge, and it has its original stylus, which has only 50 or so hours on it.However, tooblue’s experience... | |
| No right channel in new cartridge Now switch the connections at the rear of the cartridge itself. If the problem moves from one channel to the other when you do that, you will know that it is the cartridge that is defective. At that point, I would consider returning the cartridge... | |
| No right channel in new cartridge You imply, but don't say explicitly, that the cartridge functioned in both channels at some point after you purchased and installed it into this very same system. Is that the case? Or was it "dead on arrival" in the R channel? |
