| Recommended cork platter for my SL 1200 GR Technics TT This is a totally subjective opinion, but it seems to me there are two kinds of static electricity that develop in connection with playing records. The first is static that develops on the record service itself as a result of playing. That is th... | |
| Top 5 Tonearms Newer or Vintage Under 2500 That Will Beat anything above/below 2.5k? Was referring to Denon DA307 as per rob. | |
| Top 5 Tonearms Newer or Vintage Under 2500 That Will Beat anything above/below 2.5k? I’ve got one too. It came "free" along with my Dp80 and a Denon plinth for both. I am leery of that rubber joint in the arm wand and have never used the tonearm due to that. But it does receive a lot of favorable comments and perhaps I’m being too... | |
| Technics Sp10 Mk2 vs SL-1200G - I finally did an A/B Apologies to Pani. I am afraid I am the culprit for getting us off topic.What does the Time Step psu do to or for the performance of the 1200G? | |
| Technics Sp10 Mk2 vs SL-1200G - I finally did an A/B Thanks, Chakster, but my dance card is full of two full range crossover less speakers. The Sound Labs 845PXs from which I’ve removed the crossover and the Beveridge 2SWs which employ electronic crossovers, high pass and low pass set at 80 Hz. Ab... | |
| Technics Sp10 Mk2 vs SL-1200G - I finally did an A/B Pani, How are those Tannoy Turnberry speakers? I often see them in stores, but I’ve never heard a pair in action. They are popular in Japan, for sure. | |
| Technics Sp10 Mk2 vs SL-1200G - I finally did an A/B Nandric, The screws are marketed by Yamamoto under the product name, BT-1. I think you can probably buy them from an eBay vendor. The price was about $25US. When I saw them, I remembered clearly that DT regarded titanium screws as a categorica... | |
| Technics Sp10 Mk2 vs SL-1200G - I finally did an A/B I'd carry on the tonearm and yes good idea re the 10R. | |
| Technics Sp10 Mk2 vs SL-1200G - I finally did an A/B Thanks for the clarification, JP, as you are one of the few who actually has all the usual suspects in your custody. This means also that a 10R would drop in to my 90 lb slate and wood plinth that I made and had made for my Mk3. Still not persua... | |
| Don't waste money on ultrasonic RCMs Now how about Armor=all? Leaves the LP nice and shiny. | |
| Don't waste money on ultrasonic RCMs Laboratory grade isopropyl alcohol (also known as isopropanol) is fine, so long as it is highly diluted in water. I cannot imagine using it undiluted directly on an LP surface. Furthermore, I wouldn’t use cotton; it’s fibrous and will leave tiny f... | |
| Technics Sp10 Mk2 vs SL-1200G - I finally did an A/B Actually, I am very much a “whole-ist”, Nandric. I have reached a state of satisfaction with each of two audio systems and feel no real need to radically change either one. This perhaps is one reason why I feel no compulsion to purchase an SP10R, ... | |
| Phono stage as preamp Usually, no.just make sure that the phono stage alone has enough gain to drive the amplifier as well as a low enough output impedance for the same end.Most hi level devices do not need the extra gain afforded by a separate line stage. | |
| Technics Sp10 Mk2 vs SL-1200G - I finally did an A/B Pryso, Sorry I apparently missed your previous post regarding cross compatibility of plinths. However, the information is unlikely to be correct, simply because the Mk2 and Mk3 per se are not cross compatible with regard to plinth, unless Technic... | |
| Cartridge Loading- Low output M/C Al, Thanks for bringing up the question of metering. I do own a Sencore LC meter that can measure down to the pF level. If I want to measure the capacitance of a cable, do I just place the Sencore probes on the hot and ground of the cable, with th... |
