| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Larry, I comprehend one or two sentences in your reply to my questions, but much of it I do not get.Let's take this paragraph:"electrically speaking there will be no FR change with cartridge loading R....if there is... it may have to do with ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Larry, I know from reading information on the Jensen transformer website that a small RC network can improve the flatness of the frequency response when one is using a SUT, but can you defend your apparent statement that a cartridge with a 5R inte... | |
| has anyone had any problems w/ Jasmine phono LP2.0 Nikola, You can pay several hundred USD per piece for REL or VCap teflons, not to mention Deuland caps. Or, you can pay a few bucks or less each for the same value caps. So I think you would admit that price is an object when a manufacturer select... | |
| Jean Nantais Lenco Reference mk. ii user feedback Makes sense, because now I think I recall that Jean was one of a few guys who did not like the idea of a titanium idler wheel. Wonder what happened to Mirko. He was making quite a few products for Lenco, Garrard, and Thorens TD124, up to and inclu... | |
| Jean Nantais Lenco Reference mk. ii user feedback "Mirko" was his name. He no longer seems to offer his products via eBay. | |
| Direct drive vs belt vs rim vs idler arm I looked it up and now know Techdas is Japanese. "Techdas" sounded German to me. | |
| Direct drive vs belt vs rim vs idler arm This is the way of the turntable world: manufacturers have made their choices between hi and lo mass and hi and lo torque, and between direct-drive and belt-drive (and idler-drive). Then comes the technical justification for what each has done. Te... | |
| Jean Nantais Lenco Reference mk. ii user feedback Is this the titanium idler wheel that was being made by someone other than Jean and sold as such on eBay, etc? (I cannot recall his name.) Does it use an O-ring to contact the underside of the platter? I thought about buying that idler wheel, but ... | |
| Trans Fi Salvation direct rim drive turntable Either way, your system will be "groovy". | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dover, I feel like a politician. You quoted me out of context and from a post I wrote two days AFTER I retracted the putative assertion that there was a relationship between the two cartridges. (I say "putative" because I never intended to present... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? I wish one could edit one's posts on Audiogon. I forgot to mention the 4th fact point I wanted to make with Mr. Dover: In my post of January 9, I actually withdrew the assertion that there is any relationship between the two cartridges, based on m... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? This is a response to Dover's post, back up the thread a bit, posted on the 12th. First, I was not "assert"-ing anything; after my first post on the subject, I acknowledged that the relationship between the DL103 and the MD was "rumored" and that ... | |
| Shout out to Syntax - re: Delos Boys, is there really such a thing as a $35,000-tonearm? And is it made by Roksan (of all companies)? When I first read of it here, I went to the Roksan website. They do admit to a $3500-tonearm, but nowhere there do I see anything for $35,000. Or... | |
| Direct drive vs belt vs rim vs idler arm Yeah. The bass on mine was muffled as well. (I totally forgot about that issue.) Could be I had the version you are talking about. But when you say "we", do you mean to say you were a SOTA dealer or otherwise involved with SOTA? | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Aaarghhh! My dear Nikola, I am quite fond of you but you refuse to get the point. You are taking, once again, my statement of a simple fact, which is identical to what Raul says, as an opinion. For the last time, I fully agree with Raul; the fact ... |
