| Tonearm recommendation Fleib, Since this IS a hobby, and since Raul has never changed his attitude and shouldn't be expected to, at this point, why get angry? Raul es Raul. I would like to hear Raul's response. Seems to me, if you increase P2S while maintaining the lo... | |
| Tonearm recommendation Raul, Suppose I did want to use Baerwald (for one example) with my DV505. You've implied here that it can be done by changing the P2S distance from the factory-recommended value. Does this maneuver end up with the cartridge/cantilever in alignm... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? All OEM electrolytics in all vintage audio electronics should go, IMO. | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? RW, I don't know about those Alibaba sources for an MN6042, but it seems to me that if you need MN6042 these days, it's a no-brainer to connect with JP and purchase his reconstruction of an MN6042 on a PCB made from discrete parts. It outperforms... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Acman, In principle, I want your BA Mat2. However, being a computer klutz, I cannot figure out how to contact you from this website. When I click on your moniker, it takes me to a page that does not offer the possibility of sending an email. Furth... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Dear Tim (Pryso), Actually I myself re-capped my SP10 Mk2. And I did not replace diodes or rectifiers, as the Mk2 had no problems ever. (I sold it after purchasing the Mk3.) When I acquired the Mk3, I did turn that over to Bill Thalmann who re-c... | |
| What is David Bowie's turntable? I could see Bowie with a B&O turntable, one with a built-on straight line tonearm, and a B&O system, all in white. | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Banquo, I am trying to figure out how to fit the TT101 into either of my two audio systems. The question is complex, because the first thing I want to do is to audition my Fidelity Research FR64S tonearm, for the first time since I bought it seve... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Banquo, If you hear differences in the sound of your analog based on the brand and source of your step-down transformer, THAT would be worth reporting here, provided that the inferior sounding step-down was not in any way malfunctioning. Come to t... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Peter, I thought I noticed that not one but several other ICs appeared to be used in the TT101. However, all seemed to be of the same type, based on cursory examination. Is this the one you've now got? How many would hypothetically be needed to ... | |
| Pani ... New ART-9 up and running ... I heard from one Grace Ruby user who is also apparently a dealer that he has come to the opinion that the CL re-tip is to be preferred over the OCL re-tip, when it comes to SS re-tip choices. His opinion was based on an N=3 of samples, his own Ru... | |
| Class "A" phono cartridge discussion. So I guess this discussion has pretty much fizzled out, if it all comes down to "Needle Doctor". Almost none of the putative "best" cartridges that I have never heard were even mentioned here. However, a collection of subjective judgements such ... | |
| Introducing Edwards Audio Turntables If a vote is being taken, I vote in favor of learning about new products that have recently come to market. In that sense, I disagree with Bpoletti that this thread is unwarranted, even though my taste in turntables runs far afield of MDF plinths ... | |
| Tonearm recommendation I've got a DV501, as well. Up to now I have not auditioned it, because it was not suitable for use with my slate plinths. However, it can be mounted on my TT101 and SP10 Mk3 plinths, and I will give it a try. Dover is not the first to say that t... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Just for semantic reasons, I should have written "EVERYTHING", instead of "ANYTHING", in my comment above. Of course, any one thing made in China could be "crap", but not everything is. |
