| Turntable speed accuracy Hiho, Well said. The L07D is among those that use the servo feedback sparingly or gently, whichever term fits best. But since I cannot understand any of the feedback circuits without a tutor, it is hearsay evidence coming from me. I am reporting w... | |
| Brinkmann Bardo vs Transrotor Fat Bob Reference When I first read about TMD, I was enchanted. What a great idea! I was actually ready to buy a Transrotor with TMD, before I started my investigation of direct drive and idler drive. I still think the Transrotors are fine turntables, but now I see... | |
| Turntable speed accuracy Dear Henry, I guess I have been too lazy to check the Kenwood L07D with Timeline so far. However, my neighbor's Timeline is still sitting around my listening room, and I will do it today, sans LP and sans stylus drag. If there is a consistent erro... | |
| Turntable speed accuracy Peter's post harkens me back to a question I asked JTinn on the other thread: How does the NVS maintain correct speed? What I mean is, does it use servo feedback mechanism or some other strategy? I never got a response to that question, and the in... | |
| FR 64s comparison Ikeda. Dertonearm has done much work with the FR64S, and he provides his advice on set-up free of charge. There seems to be 100% consensus that the FR tonearms are superior at least a little bit to the Ikeda tonearms. So, why not just try the FR64S using... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? There ARE things you can do with your clothes on, even at our age, that do transcend even the fun of MM (and don't forget MI) cartridges. You need a human partner, however.Wish I could post a photo of my Sound Lab 845PXs. You could look at that hu... | |
| Turntable speed accuracy Dear Albert,I guess I misunderstood your riddle. I thought you wanted to have an explanation for a theoretical condition where the laser beam appears to lengthen whilst remaining fixed in its location on the wall. My explanation would fit that con... | |
| Turntable speed accuracy Sorry, I meant to address my remark in my last post to "Dev", not "Dover". | |
| Turntable speed accuracy Dear Dover, I think it was posts like your last one that got the NVS thread deleted. You have a perfect right to express your opinion, but I think we need to temper our remarks about specific products and manufacturers lest someone pull the plug o... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Mike, I would be very interested in your comparison of Ortofon M20FL Super to AKG P8ES, because I did evaluate the former one in my own system. It did not come up to the level of the Acutex LPM320 or the Grace Ruby (not to mention the Stanton 980L... | |
| Turntable speed accuracy If it were not for the fact that my neighbor, for whom I have done a lot of audio favors, owns a Timeline, I never would have been able to test my turntables with it. No way I would pay $400 to buy one. I was quite satisfied with the KAB strobe. T... | |
| 24 feet DIN to XLR phono cable for Graham Phantom? Dear J, I may have lost track of the facts, but I thought your main issue was using very long phono cables, from your tt to your Allnic. And then I thought that you have had a good result moving the Allnic (at least) close to your tt so as to obvi... | |
| Garrard 301-Worth the effort? Ah yes, the NVS. I wonder what's up with that product. Definitely the Honda Superbike to the cherry hot-rodded Harley that is an AF Garrard/Lenco. I have the same predilections as you. The price differential is huge. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Don, you are suggesting change the angle of the cartridge body without changing the angle of the headshell wrt the horizontal arm. Clever idea. I actually was so bold as to go tail up with some of the MMs for which pos VTA is recommended, and I de... | |
| Turntable speed accuracy If the laser light stays in exactly the same place on the wall as the platter rotates but the "line" created by the laser beam gets longer, then it is at least possible that the tt is momentarily gaining speed above 33 rpm (assuming the flash of t... |
