| SP-10 Mat Td, As to the carpet tape, yes, only a few tiny pieces do the job more than well enough. On my Mk3, I was too anal about leaving goop on the platter, so I just used small bits of scotch tape around the lip. Two tiny pieces placed so as not to touc... | |
| Melos MA220 tube phono stage Some bogus company took over Melos after George Melos. It was located in Las Vegas, not inappropriately. They hornswaggled several Melos owners on incompetent and overpriced repairs, etc. I don't know whether they still control the brand name, but... | |
| SP-10 Mat Romy and Michelle will be pleased. | |
| Does anyone use a RUMBLE filter? Maybe it would be more constructive for Raul to say how to get rid of woofer pumping without a rumble filter. Since Raul (and others) have posted elsewhere that the interaction of tonearm effective mass and cartridge compliance can be disregarded ... | |
| Does anyone use a RUMBLE filter? A passive 6db/octave hi-pass filter, which could consist of a single low value/high quality capacitor in series with the amplifier input might be quite transparent. However, the cut-off frequency would have to be too high up into the audio range (... | |
| SP-10 Mat Just about anything with the slightest bit of stickiness will do the trick. You could probably use grape jelly.But the 3M product is a good idea. | |
| SP-10 Mat Double-sided carpet tape. | |
| Replacement for loricraft power supply Chris, I would not have counted the capacity to take different input AC voltages and frequencies as a difference in the motor per se. But I surely agree that those variations are said to exist. | |
| How to measure tonearm effective mass James, This is/was a thread about tonearm effective mass. I think you want to post on the thread about "Garrard" motor controllers. It's possible that Mark intends to sell his Garrard/Lenco controller. | |
| Replacement for loricraft power supply Actually, there are no variations on the Lenco L75 motor that I know about, but I could be wrong. Perhaps other Lenco tt's (other than the L75) would use different motors as a matter of course. I look forward to receiving my Kelly controller in th... | |
| Brinkmann Lagrange or Kuzma Stabi M Wouldn't the Kuzma Reference be on a similar plateau with LaGrange? LaGrange should trump the Stabi M, but I've never heard either. | |
| VPI Direct Drive Turntable Dreadhead, There are two parts to your "complaint": price and your certainty that direct-drive is inferior to belt-drive. As to price, it is your decision, not to spend $30,000. I wouldn't either. As to the mechanism of direct-drive operation, you... | |
| just an observation for comment IMO, in the end it's all about the quality of the original recording and transfer processes in the first instance. Nothing that comes after that can repair damage done at the origin of the recording. Thus, a re-issue of a sonically great LP will t... | |
| Can good IC's be used instead of dedicated phono's Salectric, It doesn't "figure". The gauge of the wire might make a difference, since any resistance in the ground wire would potentially allow the component to "float" at some tiny voltage above ground, which could potentiate hum, but otherwise, I... | |
| VPI Direct Drive Turntable Hilarious. Brilliant. Pointless. |
