| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? You are perhaps referring to my innovative tt "feet", made of small cans of Mandarin Orange slices in water. I think Del Monte brand sounds best (joke here), but you may have different brands in Oz. I still use them under my Denon DP80 and Lenco L... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Dear Henry,Here's a story about my TT101 that fits this thread. As you and some others may recall, I bought mine very cheaply in "broken" condition. Bill Thalmann re-capped it and Bill and I re-soldered many of the joints. All of that work did imp... | |
| Yet another contender for my Klyne 6PE: ARC PH5 Daniele, See the link above for the Klyne on eBay. | |
| Yet another contender for my Klyne 6PE: ARC PH5 Klyne 7PX | |
| Yet another contender for my Klyne 6PE: ARC PH5 Daniele, There's a Klyne 7PX right now for sale on US eBay. Comes from an apparently reliable seller in the Far East, 220V. Shipping to Italy would probably be cheaper than shipping to US. | |
| favorite phono cartridge Seems most folks like best the cartridge they own and use in the here and now. Not surprising. I vote with Altanpsx's principle: this is an entirely subjective question and system-dependent discussion. However, a ZYX UNIverse low output version mi... | |
| Yet another contender for my Klyne 6PE: ARC PH5 While you're at it, you might contact Stan Klyne. He still does upgrades and modifications to existing units. I have a 6LX, which is in between a 6LE and a 7 series. Stan did some nice work on my unit to enhance performance. You can even bring you... | |
| Yet another contender for my Klyne 6PE: ARC PH5 Delos, did you mean to write "0.6mV"? I think so. Even that is sort of medium low output. | |
| Skeletal vs Plinth style turntables Henry, Life is short indeed, and you're too smug to learn anything new. Instead of the snide remarks, I beg you to think about what you're saying when you say that the Timeline can show you whether your arm pod is moving or not moving. That's the ... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? If you see Popsy walking very very slowly down the middle of your street, and if he looks kind of greenish and seems to want to eat you, just offer him an SL1200. | |
| Skeletal vs Plinth style turntables Parrotbee, That's a rather subjective decision. You'd have to make two plinths, one with Panzerholz and one with acrylic and then do your own listening tests. However, if you're talking about all-acrylic vs all Panzerholz (no mixing of disparate m... | |
| Skeletal vs Plinth style turntables Dear Dover, No. | |
| Skeletal vs Plinth style turntables Timeltel, Who can disagree that the first choice is the tonearm? I certainly don't. But I think the controversy surrounds the question of how best to mount a given tonearm in relation to the tt proper, assuming a priori that the choice of tonearm ... | |
| Skeletal vs Plinth style turntables CT, I am glad someone appreciates my sense of humor. | |
| Skeletal vs Plinth style turntables I want to stay out of this discussion, because it's all been said before, but I wanted to point out, with respect to the argument regarding whether the arm pod moves due to stylus drag, that the mass of the arm pod, no matter how great, is not the... |
