| RMAF 2009 Analog Report + Meet and Greet I learned something more about the construction last night from a knowledgeable friend. Apparently the platter and bearing ARE pretty special; it's not just the Schroeder association that determines the cost. He also said that it is a great soundi... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Raul, What do you mean by the term "out of specs"? Did you measure voltage output, frequency response, channel separation, etc, using calibrated instruments? I think you really mean that you did not like the sound, but the term you've used to comm... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Raul, Regardless of the missed opportunity in this one case, I do appreciate your kindness in helping me and others to find what we need. It's odd that I completely missed seeing that auction, since I have been searching eBay about twice a week fo... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Raul, For this one time, your reference comes to late for me to act on it. That AT15Sa cartridge sold on October 18. I have been searching eBay periodically for either an AT15 or AT20 of any types, in order to mount my ATN20SS stylus.But I have to... | |
| RMAF 2009 Analog Report + Meet and Greet Thanks, Dre. So I assume that the $7800 only gets you the turntable, without tonearm or cartridge. I am very surprised to learn that this product has been around for 3 years. I just heard about it in the last month or so. The design is very promis... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Raul, I am referring to the first two words at the URL you posted, "Genuine original..." When a business makes a statement like that in the US and then sells product through the mail, they assume a legal obligation to be telling the truth. I th... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Raul, If you go to the LPGear website, in the first sentence of their ad for the ATN20SS stylus assembly they do assert that the one they are selling is "genuine" and "original" AT product. That's why I bought one, although I still have not been a... | |
| RMAF 2009 Analog Report + Meet and Greet Did anyone actually see and hear the Artemis/Schroeder turntable? Does anyone know the projected cost of this item? Thanks. | |
| How to convert VPI turntable to banlanced? Srwooten, Do you know that (about the Xono) for a fact? I was under that impression for quite some time, but I think recently I read some contrary evidence. For one thing, I don't think it has XLR inputs, only XLR outputs. I am sure an e-mail to P... | |
| Should I avoid thick vinyl? Set your VTA to suit an average thickness, then play any and all freakin LPs that you like and don't fret about it. | |
| How to convert VPI turntable to banlanced? I agree with Ralph (Atma-sphere). Why would you ever buy a separate phono stage when you can get a full function preamp with built-in top quality phono for fewer total dollars (as compared to phono stage plus separate linestage) and without the co... | |
| New ASR Basis Exclusive 2010 If the Basis contains a true balanced circuit internally, which I believe to be the case, why would you even want to mess with the RCA inputs? WBTs or no WBTs, you would be/will be robbing yourself of some of the magic you are now happy with. The ... | |
| How to convert VPI turntable to banlanced? Dear Romaxin, So where did I go wrong in your mind, except that my explanation was not as detailed as yours? | |
| Best Arm for Raven One? Slowhand, I own two DV505s. I have not seen a DV507 MkII in the flesh, but as far as I can determine the major refinement between 505 and 507 is the use of a magnetic- or spring-based method for applying anti-skate force, which permits the use of ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dgob, If you go on eBay and search on the topic "P mount adapter" or "P mount cartridge adapter", you will likely find an adapter for ca $10 to $15. I bought a pretty nice one for use with the Andante P76 in that fashion. The one I got has gold-pl... |
