| Dynavector cartridges, old and new bpoletti, I wasn't trying to be funny when I mentioned Raul. He has auditioned the 17 vs the 23; he wrote about it on the old big MM thread. On the other hand, I can imagine why you found it funny. I think Raul preferred the 23. As to all the alp... | |
| Technics Sp10 Mk2 vs SL-1200G - I finally did an A/B There's no denying the possible ways in which a PS can negatively effect performance of any device that is actively passing the signal and especially if it's amplifying the signal, like one of DB's amplifiers. What I am questioning is how the PS ... | |
| Dynavector cartridges, old and new Raul has. | |
| Dynavector cartridges, old and new I‘Ve got a 17D3 in like new condition. I basically inherited it after the passing of my dear audiophile friend. There’s a lot to be said for it, but I wonder how it really stacks up against today’s crop. (I think MCs have gotten better and bette... | |
| SL1200GAE New Tonearm Dear Raul, I am waiting for you to back up your claim that placing the tonearm bearing in the plane of the LP is a good idea only for gimbal type tonearms, not for unipivots. Please do explain why a unipivot would not benefit from such a design e... | |
| Technics Sp10 Mk2 vs SL-1200G - I finally did an A/B With due respect, I disagree with many of your a priori assumptions. True, EMI from the tt motor can move back onto the AC line and contaminate the AC going to other components, and I suppose any EMI or RFI from an SMPS can do the same, but it is... | |
| Technics Sp10 Mk2 vs SL-1200G - I finally did an A/B I take that back. Of course there is another way that the PS could color the sound, and that’s by direct radiation of RFI or EMI that could be picked up by the cartridge. But that is a problem that could easily be prevented in the design, if adeq... | |
| Technics Sp10 Mk2 vs SL-1200G - I finally did an A/B PaniI just cannot come up with a hypothesis to explain how the SMPS could cause a fogging of the audio signal from the turntable. In my most paranoid way of thinking about it I suppose it could cause a periodic speed aberration but no one has repo... | |
| 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... |
