| Question on FR 66s So Chris, As an owner of the FR66S, what do YOU think of JCarr's opinion? There is another guy who posts regularly on the Analog blog who also does not like the FR66S for the same reason. | |
| To those with multiple tables/arms/cartridges Nandric, Finally I picked up my Beveridge amplifiers from Bill Thalmann the other day. Soon I will be able to report. I need some very long interconnects first. Bill had them for 8 months, so it is not all my fault that I have no listening results... | |
| intermitant phono tube cut out? Tls49, The pin may be fracturing entirely outside the glass envelope, so as not to compromise the vacuum. The argument is pointless; the OP is the only one of us who can actually examine the pin. | |
| To those with multiple tables/arms/cartridges Dear Nandric and Don (sounds like a 70s rock duo), I owe you guys an apology. Last night I saw that each of you did send an email to my little used gmail account. I rarely even look over there, because I do not give that address out, ever. In fact... | |
| Denon DP6000 crackling noise: Need Help As I think I said on Vinyl Asylum, you should move your plan to replace the capacitors to the front burner. But it may also be a simple arc-ing from some high voltage node to ground due to worn insulation, etc. | |
| To those with multiple tables/arms/cartridges I am not sure I got your email at all. I did have an email from Nikola in the last few months, and perhaps he can remind me if he asked me about selling my Denon DP80 in that exchange. Somehow I don't think that was the subject. But I have not cha... | |
| intermitant phono tube cut out? It sounded like it was not merely bent but loose, such that maybe it is partially fractured. I did not mean to imply that a bent pin is per se a big problem. | |
| intermitant phono tube cut out? "I did notice that one of the pins easily bends upon removal and just as easily goes back into place when reinserting."Not good. Suggests a possible internal short. I would waste nor more time on that tube. | |
| To those with multiple tables/arms/cartridges Don, If you are like me, you owe your lust for a Victor turntable to Halcro. At least I do. I recently bought a QL10 (TT101 in plinth cum UA7045 tonearm). It was initially not working, and I bought it in full knowledge that it was "broken", but to... | |
| Cartridge No replacement styli for ADC XLM? I doubt it. Why not do a SoundSmith rebuild on the original stylus assembly, if you don't like the available aftermarket styli? | |
| Replacing my old soda Sapphire: which clearaudio Dear Elegal, As Manitunc states also, no. The outboard PS in no way mitigates any effect of having the motor mounted onboard with the suspended mass. Your older SOTA (depends on how old) is likely to have the other problem: motor mounted on the un... | |
| To those with multiple tables/arms/cartridges Henry, OT, but it's your thread and you own a TT101: I have had no problem finding oodles of correct NOS ICs to replace the clock IC in the TT101. I am going to buy several from a vendor in China, in case my TT101 is in need. Bill Thalmann says th... | |
| Replacing my old soda Sapphire: which clearaudio The suspension system needs to be damped, else the chassis will continue to bounce up and down well after the inciting force has passed. The designer also needs to tune the suspension so as to filter out frequencies around a certain set point. The... | |
| To those with multiple tables/arms/cartridges Dear Henry, Perhaps I was thinking of the lyric from "I've grown accustomed to her face", Henry Higgins' lament from My Fair Lady: "Her joys, her woesHer highs, her lowsAre second nature to me nowLike breathing out and breathing inI was serenely i... | |
| Replacement for loricraft power supply Mark, Sorry to have let the cat out of the bag, as it were. There was no intent on my part to embarrass you in any way. In fact, I admire you for not going ahead with the SS controller, if you had doubts about its long term reliability. |
