| Turnable database with TimeLine Dear Richard, If anything, the tt itself generates RFI internally. I think Halcro noticed some related issues when he ran his "naked", without the metal casing. In fact, I think we all concluded that one function of that casing is to shield other ... | |
| Turnable database with TimeLine FWIW, my unit has all new electrolytics. That's the first thing we did during the first round at Bill's shop. On the second go-round, Bill re-soldered all those suspect solder joints. When it then failed in my house, I myself re-soldered yet more ... | |
| Has anyone had trouble with speed on their tt Syntax, Mosin, and Hiho are correct. What a motley crew. | |
| Turnable database with TimeLine Yeah, I thought of that. This last guy made about $150 and can freely admit he's done nothing. Yet I still have to pay for his time. What a country!However, in Bill's case, not only is he the salt of the earth in terms of honesty, but I did see my... | |
| Turnable database with TimeLine The big question is, what's a "turnable"?Here we've all been talking about turntables, and Halcro wanted to discuss turnables all along.Some few of you might want to know that after sending off my own TT101 for its third fix, the repair person (NO... | |
| Turnable database with TimeLine Ack, I follow your reasoning right up to the last sentence. The Timeline per se is not even as heavy as the "typical" record weight, and the mass of a record weight/Timeline is concentrated at the center of rotation, where the motive force has a t... | |
| cartridge for WELL TEMPERED Amadeus Do you know the effective mass of the Amadeus tonearm? That parameter would be a major determinant of how well a low compliance MC cartridge will "work". Plus, the inherent viscous damping of the WT tonearms is a something that will need some adju... | |
| I have just bought a used Well Tempered Classic If you want to be overwhelmed with ideas for a good MM cartridge (nearly all of them are "high output"), check out the "Who needs MC cartridges when we have MM thread", with over 11,000 posts. But before you buy one, be sure that the tonearm truly... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Not I, but wow wow wow, it must be the greatest thing since... my last fetish. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Don't you guys wonder what happened to Raul? I do. I hope he is OK, and I look forward to his next thread: "Who needs MC cartridges, when we have MM?"But in my book, Raul (and the rest of us who contributed) has "given" me MM cartridges. Were it n... | |
| Grace Level ll Given the wonderfulness of my Ruby, I would be curious to listen to an F14. The nomenclature is still a bit confusing to me. There is "Level II" and within Level II there are F11 and F14? Is that correct? I've never heard of these cartridges maybe... | |
| Best cartridge to reduce hum under $400 USD What Mofi said.I would shield the motor. The cartridge is a good one. Shielding may take some time and effort to install but would be cheaper than spending on a new cartridge that will at best be as good as the one you've got. I suggest you get sh... | |
| Grace Level ll Can you provide more information? I've never heard of "Grace Level II". I own and enjoy a Grace Ruby. Thanks. | |
| Trans Fi Salvation direct rim drive turntable I for one would not hold Spirit to the letter of his "15X" statement, just to its "spirit". This is coming from a cynic who does not believe there is much to be gained by spending any more than $30K on a turntable, and I would never spend even tha... | |
| Trans Fi Salvation direct rim drive turntable Spirit, Do you mean to say that the Salvation with all the upgrades PLUS the Terminator are sold for a total of $5k to $6K? That truly does sound like a bargain. Also, Harold or Spirit, you now make it sound as though the magnetic field DOES opera... |
